Clearway Found · AI visibility

Get recommended by ChatGPT.

When your customers ask an AI assistant for the best business in their area, it names a directory or a competitor, not you. We fix the things AI reads, then track your visibility every month. No guarantees, just the proven work and an honest report.

In short

Clearway Found is an AI visibility service for local Australian businesses. We work on the listings, reviews, business details and structured content that AI assistants like ChatGPT, Google AI and Gemini read, so your business is more likely to be the recommendation, then we track your visibility every month. We do the proven work and report the trend. We never guarantee a specific AI citation.

The new shelf

People ask AI for a recommendation now. It only reads out three names.

45% of consumers now use AI like ChatGPT to find a local business, up from just 6% a year ago, now the third most-used tool for local recommendations (BrightLocal 2026). When ChatGPT or Google AI answers, it does not show a page of links. It confidently names three or four businesses. If you are not one of them, you are invisible to those buyers, and most owners have never checked. The honest version is not "you do not exist", it is "a directory or a competitor gets named, and you are the line inside the directory it cites instead of you".

The listings AI reads

Bing Places (a key feed for ChatGPT local), Google Business Profile, and the directories AI assistants trust. We get them verified, consistent and complete, because that is the layer that decides who gets named.

Your details, consistent everywhere

AI assistants downrank a business whose name, address and phone disagree across the web. We clean up the inconsistencies so the models see one confident, trustworthy entity, you.

Reviews and reputation signals

Reviews are one of the heaviest signals in AI local answers. We set up the prompts and flow to earn real ones. We never fake reviews or invent ratings, that breaks trust and the law.

Content AI can quote

We add structured data and answer-formatted content so assistants can read your services and lift a clean line about you, instead of skipping you for a competitor whose site spells it out.

Start here, free
See who AI recommends instead of you.

We ask the AI assistants the questions your customers actually ask, then send you a one-page breakdown: do you appear, who gets named instead, and the top gaps. Free, no pitch unless you want one. AI answers vary by session, so it is a snapshot taken on the day, not a guaranteed measure.

Plans

Three ways in. Most pick Found Everywhere.

Take the AI assistants on their own at $699 a month, take Google on its own at $499, or take both for $999, which saves $199 a month against the two separately and works out better value for almost everyone. The AI side costs more because it is the harder and scarcer work. All three include the monthly report, and none has a setup fee or a lock-in.

Who you work with

A specialist, not an agency layer.

Agencies charge $1,500 or more a month for AI visibility because you are paying for account managers, offices and overhead you never deal with. With Clearway you work directly with the specialist doing the work. That is how you actually get looked after, and how the price stays fair without cutting corners. It is also why we keep it small: the same person who runs your check builds and tracks your visibility.

No lock-in
Month to month. Cancel any time.

No setup fee, no minimum term, 30 days notice and you are out. Most agencies here tie you to six or twelve months, which tells you who is carrying the risk. AI visibility takes months to build, so I would rather earn the next month than hold you to it. I also onboard a few at a time, so every setup gets done properly rather than rushed.

The honest bit

AI visibility is probabilistic. There is no paid placement and no single ranking factor, so nobody can honestly promise you a specific spot in ChatGPT by a certain date. We sell the proven work that drives visibility, plus monitoring, and we report the trend in plain English every month. AI answers vary by user and session, so figures are a sampled snapshot, not a guaranteed measure. We never use fake reviews or invented ratings.

Common questions

Getting found by AI , the bits people ask about.

Why am I not the business ChatGPT recommends?

When someone asks an AI assistant for the best business in your area, it usually names a directory like Oneflare or Yelp, or one or two competitors. Most local businesses are not invisible exactly, you are the faceless line inside the directory it cites instead of you. AI assistants pick names based on your Google Business Profile, your Bing listing, your reviews, how consistent your details are across the web, and whether your site answers the question in a format they can quote. Those are the things we work on.

Can you guarantee I will appear in ChatGPT or Google AI?

No, and anyone who promises that is not being straight with you. There is no paid placement and no single ranking factor for AI answers. What we can do is the proven foundational work that drives visibility, then measure it every month so you see the trend. We sell the work and the monitoring, never a guaranteed spot.

How long does AI visibility take?

Realistically: first movement in about 4 to 8 weeks, ChatGPT presence in roughly 6 to 12 weeks, and a consistent presence over 3 to 6 months. AI visibility is earned over weeks, not bought, so the monthly plans are built around that timeline, not a one-off fix.

What is the difference between Found by AI and Found Everywhere?

Found by AI gets you found on AI assistants only (ChatGPT, Google AI, Gemini, Perplexity). Found Everywhere covers AI and Google together, it adds local SEO, Google Business Profile work and Google-side content, so you turn up everywhere people search. Here is the key bit on price: the Google work rides the same foundation the AI work already builds (consistent details, schema, reviews, quotable content), so adding it costs $300 rather than the $499 it costs on its own. That is not because SEO is cheap, it is because the hard part is already done. If you only want the Google side, Found on Google is $499 a month on its own. None of the plans has a setup fee or a lock-in contract, which is why most businesses just start on Found Everywhere.

How much does AEO or AI visibility cost in Australia?

Clearway Found is priced for local Australian businesses, not enterprise. All prices are in AUD plus GST, with no setup fees and no lock-in contract. Found by AI is $699 per month. Found on Google, which is the local SEO and Google Business Profile work without the AI layer, is $499 per month. Found Everywhere is $999 per month and does both, which saves $199 a month against buying them separately, because they build on the same foundation. The AI side is priced above the Google side because it is the newer and scarcer work. The free AI Visibility Check costs nothing and shows you exactly where you stand first. Existing Clearway care-plan clients, on sites we built and host, can add AI visibility monitoring for about $99 to $129 per month, which is monitoring only, not the optimisation work in Found by AI. Published Australian AEO pricing runs from around $549 a month at the small end to $2,500 and well beyond at full-service agencies.

Who can get my business recommended by ChatGPT or AI in Perth?

Clearway Found does exactly this for local businesses in Perth, Western Australia and Australia-wide. We work on the Bing and Google listings, reviews, consistent business details and AI-readable content that decide who an assistant names, then track your visibility across ChatGPT, Google AI, Gemini and Perplexity every month. Start with a free AI Visibility Check to see where you stand. We do the proven work and report the trend, we never promise a specific citation.

What is the free AI Visibility Check?

A short, personalised check where we ask the AI assistants the questions your customers actually ask, then show you whether you appear, who gets recommended instead, and the top gaps holding you back. It is genuinely free and genuinely useful even if you never buy anything. AI answers vary by user and session, so it is a sampled snapshot taken on the day, not a guaranteed measure.

Is AEO the same as SEO?

They are close cousins. SEO (search engine optimisation) is the work of ranking on a page of Google links. AEO (answer engine optimisation, what we call AI visibility) is the work of being the business an AI assistant names when it answers out loud, with no page of links, just three or four recommendations. AEO is essentially SEO for AI search. A lot of the work overlaps (reviews, consistent business details, structured content all help both), which is why we offer them together as Found Everywhere.

Do I still need SEO if I do AI visibility?

For now, yes, and that is the honest answer. Plenty of your customers still use Google, so ranking there still matters. But a growing share ask ChatGPT, Gemini or Google AI and never scroll a list of links, and SEO alone does nothing for them. The smart play is both, which is exactly why Found Everywhere bundles AI visibility with local SEO into one monthly engagement rather than making you choose.

I already do SEO, so why am I not showing up in ChatGPT?

Because AI assistants do not read Google rankings. They build local answers from a different layer: your Bing Places listing, your Google Business Profile, your reviews, how consistent your details are across the web, and content written in a format they can quote. You can rank well on Google and still be missing from ChatGPT if that layer is thin. Clearway Found fixes the AI layer specifically, then tracks it, so the SEO you already pay for is not the whole story.

Is this just SEO with a new name?

No. Traditional SEO is about ranking on a page of Google links. AI visibility is about being the named recommendation an assistant gives when there is no page of links, just three or four names. The work overlaps (reviews, consistent details, structured content all help both) which is why Found Everywhere bundles them, but getting cited by ChatGPT needs work that classic SEO ignores, like your Bing listing and answer-formatted content.
