The information was never secret. The access was.
Search stopped showing options.
Now it picks a winner.
Google, ChatGPT, and Perplexity no longer return a list of websites and let the user decide. They read the web, synthesize an answer, and name a business. One business. The rest do not appear.
Google has published exactly what signals determine who gets named. Large agencies built entire practices around understanding those signals — and charging to keep that understanding to themselves. The signals were never proprietary. The access was.
We built the tool the agencies didn’t want to exist. The same intelligence. Available to any business with a domain name.
