AI Search Foundations
AI Search Foundations is a fixed price project that makes your website readable to AI assistants. Orca adds structured data, an llms.txt file, question and answer blocks, and crawler access rules so ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity and Google AI Overviews can cite you accurately.

Why it matters
Most websites were built for people clicking links, not for software reading pages. AI crawlers get blocked by default settings, lose facts inside images and PDFs, and guess when your pages contradict each other. The result is an assistant that describes you wrongly or leaves you out.
Best fit for: Associations, Nonprofits, Law firms, Medical practices, Commercial real estate, Small business.

Everything below is delivered in your name and stays yours.

Questions about AI Search Foundations
Can you guarantee we rank first in ChatGPT?
No one honestly can. AI answers change by question, location and model. What Orca can do is remove every technical reason an assistant would skip you, and show you the measured difference.
Does this replace SEO?
It builds on it. The same clear structure that helps AI assistants also helps Google search, so most clients see both improve.
Do you need to rebuild our website?
No. Foundations work goes into your existing site on any common platform, including WordPress, Squarespace and custom builds.
