Visibility didn't end with search. It moved.
Clartiv helps businesses understand and improve how AI assistants recommend them, so they stay findable as the way people search changes.
The shift.
For two decades, being findable meant ranking on Google. That's changing. People increasingly ask ChatGPT, Gemini, and Perplexity for recommendations directly — and Gartner projects a 25% drop in traditional search volume by 2026 as they do.
In an AI answer, there is no page two. The assistant names a few businesses, and most people act on that short list. For the businesses left off it, the cost is quiet but real: customers who never knew they existed.
Most owners have no way to see any of this. They can't tell whether AI recommends them, who it recommends instead, or why. Clartiv exists to close that gap.
Clartiv measures how visible your business is across the major AI assistants — whether they name you, where you rank, and what they say about you — and then does the work to improve it.
We turn an invisible, fast-moving problem into something you can see, track, and act on.
How we work.
Clarity over jargon
The shift to AI search is confusing enough. We explain it plainly and tell you exactly what to do.
Measurement over guesswork
Opinions don't move you up in an AI answer. We work from what the engines actually say, measured and tracked over time.
Done, not just dashboarded
Most tools hand you a chart and wish you luck. We do the work: the fixes, not only the findings.
Honest by default
No inflated claims, no invented results. If we can't measure it, we won't promise it.
The window is open.
The businesses that AI cites over the next few years will be the ones that started while the field was still open. Citation authority compounds — early movers build a lead that's hard to unseat.
We built Clartiv so any business, not just those with a marketing team, can start now.
Built for the businesses AI keeps leaving out.
Independent and local businesses — and the people who help them grow. Owners who are excellent at what they do but don't have time to track how a half-dozen AI assistants talk about them. We're the team that does.
Clartiv started with a simple observation: I kept seeing AI assistants confidently recommend the same few businesses while excellent ones nearby went unmentioned — and the owners had no idea it was happening. That struck me as both unfair and fixable.
I'm building Clartiv to give those businesses a fair shot at being recommended — measured honestly, explained plainly, and handled for them.
