FAQ

Common questions

Why does AI visibility matter for law firms?

Clients increasingly use AI search tools like ChatGPT and Perplexity instead of Google. If your firm isn't visible to these AI models, you're missing potential clients searching for legal services. AI visibility is now a critical part of legal marketing strategy.

How is AI visibility different from traditional SEO?

Traditional SEO optimizes for Google's algorithm, but AI models use different crawling rules and ranking factors. Surfaceable audits specifically for AI visibility, identifying issues Google tools won't catch that prevent AI models from finding and recommending your firm.

Which AI models does Surfaceable monitor?

Surfaceable tracks your law firm's visibility in ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, and Perplexity—the leading AI search platforms where legal clients are actively searching for law firms and legal advice.

Can Surfaceable help fix my law firm's AI visibility?

Yes. Surfaceable identifies technical SEO issues blocking AI crawlers, then provides actionable recommendations to fix them. Our audit shows exactly what's preventing visibility and how to improve your firm's appearance across AI search platforms.

How long does an AI visibility audit take?

Surfaceable scans your law firm's website and generates a comprehensive visibility report within minutes. You'll immediately see how you appear in each AI model and get a prioritized list of technical SEO fixes to implement.
