Customer results

What customers say about Botric.

Three teams that used Botric to track their AI visibility and publish the content that improved it.

Grey Aesthetics

We had strong recognition across Orange County and a loyal patient base. What we didn't have was visibility when those patients researched treatments online before booking. Botric bridged that gap in ways we didn't think possible in 60 days.

Shannon HunterCEO & Founder

myIDFi AI

I hadn't really thought about how AI platforms like ChatGPT talked about our business until we started using Botric. Seeing where we showed up, where we didn't, and what to improve has been incredibly helpful and easy to understand.

Jeffrey Lee NelsonFounder & CEO

We built MotorEnvy so people could drive the cars they want without owning them. Botric fixed our AI visibility, so when someone asks ChatGPT, Perplexity or Gemini about car subscriptions, we're in the answer, and we show up on Google too.

Michael ChuangFounder & CEO

What impressed us most about Botric wasn't just the visibility data, it was the clarity behind it. The platform helped us understand how AI platforms interpreted our brand, where competitors were outperforming us, and what to fix.

Dana FarboFounder & CEO

Luminary

We built Luminary to go beyond search engines and AI chatbots, a new way to explore ideas and deeply understand the world. Botric helped more people discover Luminary by expanding our visibility across Google and the AI platforms where curiosity increasingly begins.

Aditya KaulFounder & CEO

We've used plenty of marketing platforms over the years, but Botric answered a different set of questions: how ChatGPT and other LLMs understood our brand, and where our content was making an impact. The recommendations were practical and easy to apply.
