By type of business
AI visibility for your type of business
Pick your type of business to see what customers ask ChatGPT and Gemini about it, and what helps an assistant name you. Plain English, for UK owners.
Short answer
Customers ask AI assistants different questions depending on what they need: a plumber for a leak today, a dentist taking new patients, a pub that welcomes dogs. Each page below covers one type of business: the questions people tend to ask, and the details that help an assistant match and name you. All free to read.

Questions people ask
What if my type of business isn't listed?
The free check still works. It suits any business that customers look for by what it does and where it is. These pages cover the sectors we have written about so far. The guides cover the groundwork that applies to every business.
Do these pages promise that AI will recommend me?
No. Nobody can promise what an AI assistant will say, and we don't. Each page explains what customers in that sector tend to ask and which details make a business easier for an assistant to match.
Which AI assistants does the free check use?
ChatGPT and Google's Gemini. Perplexity is not part of the free check.
