We didn’t set out to build a product. We run a full-cycle agency and Answerly began as a problem we kept hitting on real client work.
The moment was specific. A client sat at the top of Google for their main commercial query — traffic was fine. Then we asked ChatGPT which company to hire for that exact job, and it named a competitor, not them. No rank tracker had a word to say about it. The sale was being decided in a place none of our dashboards could see.
We tried the tools that promised “AI visibility”. Each covered a slice — one engine, or a vanity score — and some cheerfully counted competitors the model had hallucinated. None gave the full picture across ChatGPT, Gemini and Google’s AI Overview, and none were honest about how little a single check proves.
So we built what we needed. Answerly checks your real queries across the assistants your buyers use, reports every number with its sample size and margin of error, throws out the invented competitors, and turns the gaps into a content plan grounded in the live search results — not ten guessed headlines. We run it on our own clients every day.
