Enterprise AI Search Program

Custom

Custom-scoped work for organizations whose brand, market, language, governance, connector, or reporting complexity exceeds the standard plans.

Custom workspace and domain capacity

Includes
  • Workspace, domain, market, language, competitor, surface, reporting, and governance capacity defined only by the signed scope
  • Segmented prompt matrices, owner maps, governance records, and workstream roadmaps
  • Explicit blockers and executive reporting that separates verified movement from untested areas
  • Managed implementation only when the signed scope authorizes it
Not included
  • Any prompt count, competitor count, implementation volume, term, workshop count, or price inferred before the scope is approved
  • Self-serve Checkout for an undefined package
  • Guaranteed citations, rankings, traffic, conversions, or movement

No paid work starts from a pricing-page click. A verified billing entitlement is required before a baseline can start. Citations are never guaranteed.

How much does AI Visibility Audit cost?

AI Visibility Audit is $99/month or $990/year. The included AI answer-check allowance is published only after signed commercial approval. Checkout stays closed until that allowance and matching signed economics exist.

What is included in the free domain inspection?

The Free AI Visibility Snapshot is no-card triage. It checks crawlability, AI bot access, and a small sample of prompt citeability signals. It is not a paid plan, a trial, or a substitute for a dated paid baseline.

What is the difference between AI Visibility Audit and Growth Retainer?

AI Visibility Audit ($99/month or $990/year) is a dated baseline for one workspace. Growth Retainer ($299/month or $2,990/year) adds up to three workspaces, recurring checks at the catalog-approved cadence, monthly reporting, and implementation-ready work. Neither plan includes human implementation or a free trial.

Do Citation Path plans guarantee AI citations?

No. Citation Path improves citation probability through verified prompt evidence, clear answer blocks, and valid schema. Engine updates and query context still determine citations.

What does Enterprise AI Search Program cost?

Enterprise AI Search Program is Custom. Workspace capacity, AI answer checks, markets, languages, connectors, reporting, governance, and any managed execution come only from the signed scope.

Check the gaps before funding the fix.
