AI visibility for local businesses
Become nameworthy.
When customers ask AI who to hire, will it name your business? We find the gaps, prepare the edits and give you the tools to move forward. Choose a complete handoff with FIX or continuing help with GROW. Your team publishes the changes.

Start with what customers can find.
Make it easier to find the right facts about your business.
Our research.
Research you can inspect.
Our work draws on published field studies and retained observations. This study examined one local market across six AI surfaces. It describes what we observed, not a promised client result.
The State of AI Visibility in Pasadena Family Law
The six engines crowned four different market leaders. A business can top ChatGPT and be named zero times on Gemini and Perplexity.
Of 45 informational answers, 43 named no local business at all in that sample. A useful answer does not always include a local recommendation.
Surfaces measured separately, with the answers and collection conditions retained. One engine’s result does not stand in for the others.
No black box.
Exactly how we work.
A clear starting point, practical edits and a record of what changed.
We check the questions customers ask, record where you appear and retain the answers. FIX and GROW both include a 25-question starting baseline.
We report, per engine, where you appear and who wins instead — and identify possible gaps to investigate: a directory profile, a missing page, a price nobody published.
We deliver ready-to-publish edits and exact instructions. Your team approves and publishes them.
With FIX, you leave with the edits and a tailored AI toolkit. With GROW, we repeat the measurement each month and keep preparing the next improvements.
The exclusivity rule.
We take one business per category, per city.
You’re hiring us to become the answer when someone asks AI for the best in your category near them. We can’t make you that answer and your competitor too — it’s the same question, the same short list. So we don’t. One per category, per city: yours, or theirs.
Only ever on your side
Every pattern we uncover about winning your market is spent making you the cited answer — never hedged across the businesses you’re up against.
The slot is finite
AI hands back a short list, not a directory. Which names appear can change across questions, engines, and repeated runs. Your report shows those differences.
A baseline you can revisit
We keep the questions fixed between measurements and retain the answers. You can compare what changed without relying on one memorable screenshot.

A person, not a platform.
Joe Balewski
Nameworthy is run by one accountable person, operating as Whitley Row LLC. The method didn’t start as a service — it started as a question: when an AI recommends a business, whose sources is it actually pulling from? That became a benchmark of roughly eleven thousand citations, and then this practice.
Joe also edits Anything Engine Optimization, a separate publication covering AI search. As AI changes how it finds and recommends businesses, we keep up with the latest discovery practices and update your GROW plan, so you don’t have to.
Built for work that can’t leak.
Your data stays yours.
We work the way a serious business needs a vendor to work. Confidential information never goes into an AI tool. Every published change carries your documented approval before it goes live. We work under NDA; your team controls what goes live and what is removed. This is a drafting and measurement practice — not legal, financial, or professional advice.
