How buyers find Altis on Google and in AI


Hi, I'm Timothy. I checked how buyers find Altis on Google and in AI tools like ChatGPT.
And I'm Ehil. I read the numbers. Here are the ones that matter.
110
searches a month for tools like yours. You are not on Google's first page for any of them.
1 in 5
AI answers mention Altis. PitchBook, the competitor AI mentions most, gets mentioned more often.
121x
as many sites link to Third Bridge, the competitor AI mentions most whose links we can compare, as to you.
$1,430
a year: what you would pay for Google ads to get these visits. On Google's first page, you get them for free.

I made this audit from your website alone. With your real data, like Google Search Console and your analytics, I can show you much more.

Three ways to compare: how often AI mentions you, how many sites link to you, and authority. Altis comes last on 2 of the 3.
PitchBook and CB Insights and Gartner are parts of whole platforms (pitchbook.com, cbinsights.com, gartner.com), so their link numbers are left out. Authority is a DataForSEO estimate from link data, not a Google number.

We asked 6 AI tools 49 questions that your buyers ask. Altis came up in 62 of 294 answers.

When buyers do not know your name, AI mentions you in only 8 of 100 answers.

On 22 out of 49 questions, no AI tool mentions Altis at all.
Buyers who do not know you are the ones you want.
Today, AI is sending them elsewhere.
One dot per AI tool, in the order above. A filled dot means that tool mentioned Altis: it named you or linked to your site. The number under each tool counts the questions it mentioned you in. AI answers change every day; these are from Oct 16, 2026.

Every month, only 110 people search Google for tools like yours. Altis is not on Google's first page for any of these searches.

For a niche product, AI answers are the bigger opening. When a buyer asks ChatGPT for a tool like yours, I want Altis on that short list.

Other companies also use the name Altis. Buyers type "altis vc". For that, Google shows you first.
Cost per click: what one visit costs as a top Google ad. Difficulty: 0 to 100, lower is easier to win. Competitor ranking: the highest-placed of your competitors in Google's top 10 for that search, and its place (checked Oct 20, 2026).
For Altis, AI matters more than Google.
Altis sells a niche product. Few people type a search for it into Google, so the Google numbers in this audit are small. A small number here does not mean a small market. Buyers of niche products often find tools in other ways: they ask AI tools, peers and experts.
This audit is modular. Each part (competitors, AI, Google, links, speed, money) stands on its own. For Altis, read the AI part first.

Google and AI trust a site more when other sites link to it. Only 20 sites link to Altis, fewer than any of your competitors.

The links you have are clean. Nothing bad holds you back. You need more good links.

Good news: 18,360 sites link to two or more of your competitors and not to you. Here are the 6 best ones to get listed on.

On a phone, your homepage needs 4.3 seconds to show. Google wants 2.5 seconds or less. Slow pages lose buyers and can rank lower.

AI agents are bots that look things up and buy tools for people. Your site fails 2 of 6 must-have checks for them. When an agent cannot use your site, it can pick a competitor instead.

is what you would pay for Google ads to get these visits. On Google's first page, you get them for free.

My job is to put you on that first page. Then that money stays with you.

Few people search Google for tools like yours, so these Google numbers are small. AI answers are the bigger opening for you.

Ranking also brings new customers. Use the calculator to see what they could pay you each year.

Here is my plan for Altis.

Timothy builds every page from your own knowledge. So it sounds like you, not like AI.


I work every day, weekends too. You make the big calls.
