Proof

The proof is your own numbers.

We don’t ask you to take the AI-search shift on faith. Before you pay for anything, we run your site through a free AI Readiness Audit and show you your own gap, scored against real web standards. You see exactly where you stand first. The fix comes after.

  • A real score for your site, not a generic example
  • The specific pages and gaps keeping you out of AI answers
  • A plain-English read on what to fix first, and why it matters
  • Yours to keep whether or not you ever hire us

No card. No sales pressure. You keep the score either way.

Your audit, your score

A typical first audit, before any work. Not a client result, just what we see most often.

The proof mechanism

Proof you can run before you pay.

Most agencies show you someone else’s win and ask you to assume it’ll happen for you too. We do it the other way around. The free AI Readiness Audit scores your site, 0 to 100, against the criteria AI engines actually use to decide who to name. It shows you, on your own pages, exactly where you’re invisible right now.

  • A real score for your site, not a generic example
  • The specific pages and gaps keeping you out of AI answers
  • A plain-English read on what to fix first, and why it matters
  • Yours to keep whether or not you ever hire us
Why this is the honest proof

You don’t have to trust a testimonial. You can check your own homework.

A case study tells you what happened to a stranger. An audit tells you what’s true about you, today. One is a story. The other is evidence about your business that you can verify yourself.

If the audit says you’re already in good shape, we’ll tell you that and you’ve spent nothing. If it shows a gap, now you know the size of the problem before deciding whether to fix it.

We hold our own site to it

We eat our own cooking.

It’s a fair question to ask any agency that sells AI-search readiness: is your own site actually ready? Ours is. We score chasekaizen.com against the exact same AI-readiness criteria we’d run on yours, and we keep it high. If we couldn’t meet the standard we sell, we wouldn’t sell it.

  • Same audit, same scoring, no special treatment for us
  • Structured so ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google AI can read and cite it
  • Re-checked as the engines change, because “ready” is not a one-time state

Kaizen means continuous improvement. A managed presence is never “done”, and neither is ours.

Before and after

What the case studies will show.

Here’s the honest part. We’re a principal-led shop building this practice now, and named client case studies are in progress, not published yet. So instead of borrowing someone else’s results, here’s exactly what a before-and-after will track, and how you can be one of the first.

Honest noteFirst named case studies in progress. Two founding-client before/afters are being measured right now. We’d rather show you a clear, honest blank than a borrowed or invented win.

Be one of the first

We’re taking a small number of founding clients at a launch rate in exchange for the right to publish your before/after as a case study. You get the work at a discount. We get the proof. Both sides win. AI Search Readiness Upgrade, founding-client launch rate from $1,500 (regular pricing starts at $2,500), in exchange for before/after case-study rights. Payment plans available.

Your numbers become the proof.

Start with the free audit to get your before. If you take the founding-client upgrade, your measured after becomes one of the first named case studies on this very page.

Standards, not guesswork

The engines we optimize for.

We don’t chase rumors about what an algorithm “likes”. We build to documented, standards-based web criteria that these engines reward, the same criteria the free audit scores you against.

ChatGPT

Names businesses inside its answer. Reads clean, answerable content and clear structure.

Perplexity

Cites its sources directly. Rewards pages it can quote and link with confidence.

Google AI

The AI overview at the top of search. Pulls from structured, crawlable, trustworthy pages.

Google

Still the foundation. Strong classic SEO and schema feed every AI surface above it.
