About
A tool that can prove its own claims
Attention is an answer engine optimization platform for local service businesses and the agencies that manage them. It measures how ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, Claude and Google's AI Overviews answer when someone asks for a recommendation in your market, and how you rank in classic search alongside, then ships the fixes that get you named.
Why it exists
An answer names two or three businesses, and there is no page two
People increasingly ask an assistant who to hire instead of searching and reading down a list. The assistant answers with a handful of names. If yours is not among them, there is no second page to be on, no lower position to improve from, and usually no way to find out it happened.
Traditional SEO tools measure a ranking that the customer never sees any more. What needed measuring was the answer itself: the actual words an engine says about your market, including the ones that never mention you. That measurement is what Attention was built to produce, and everything else follows from it: a fix is only worth shipping if you can show the gap it closes.
How we work
Rules the product enforces on itself
Each of these is enforced in the software rather than promised in copy, which means a customer can verify it instead of trusting it.
- Nothing we generate is invented
- Every piece of content Attention writes, whether structured data, FAQ answers or page copy, states only facts drawn from the business’s own record and its own website. Reviews, prices, credentials and awards are never fabricated to fill a gap. This is enforced by guards in the generation pipeline, not by a style guide, because the difference matters when an AI assistant repeats what it finds.
- A human approves everything before it is public
- Attention proposes; a person decides. No draft reaches a live website without someone approving it, and one click takes it back down. There is no mode where the software publishes on your behalf and tells you afterwards.
- You can check our work
- Some of your tracked searches are measured but deliberately never optimized. If your optimized searches improve while those controls stay flat, the improvement is ours to claim. If the controls moved too, that was the market, and your dashboard says so plainly. Most tools in this category have no way to tell those apart, and no incentive to build one.
- Priced per business, not per prompt
- Metering by the question prices the measuring and gives away nothing for the fixing. Plans are priced per business with a set number of tracked searches, so the plan that finds a gap is the plan that closes it.
- We measure classic search too
- Answer engines and search results share signals: structured data, trusted citations, clear entity information. Measuring one without the other tells you half the story, so every plan measures both.
Who it is for
Businesses that live on being recommended
Law firms, medical and dental practices, med spas and consultancies, the kind of business where one recommendation is worth a year of clicks, plus the agencies that run their marketing. If your customers ask someone for a name before they buy, an assistant is now one of the people they ask.
What that looks like in practice
- The questions your customers ask, put to five engines on a schedule.
- The verbatim answers recorded, including the ones naming a competitor.
- Structured data, content and citations fixed against the gaps found.
- Control searches held back, so the improvement is attributable.
Rules the software enforces on itself
Not values on a page. Each of these is something the product does or refuses to do, and you can check every one of them.
Nothing is invented
Generated content states only facts from your own business record and site. Never a review, price, credential or result that is not yours. Enforced by guards in the pipeline, not by a style guide.
A human approves everything
Attention proposes; you decide. No draft reaches your website without approval, and one click takes it back down. There is no mode where it publishes and tells you after.
Control searches
Some searches are measured and deliberately never optimized, so your lift can be told apart from the market moving. Most tools in this category have no way to do that, and no reason to build one.
AEO and SEO together
The answer engines and classic search share signals: structured data, trusted citations, clear entity information. Every plan measures both, because measuring one tells you half the story.
Priced per business
Not per prompt. Metering the questions prices the measuring and gives away nothing for the fixing, so the plan that finds a gap is the plan that closes it.
Your data stays yours
Export the raw measurement rows whenever you like. Structured data served to your site is one line of code you control. Cancel and everything published on your behalf comes down with one click.
