AI assistants recommend software. Is yours on the list?

SavvyCal was named on seven of the twenty-one questions that never mention it, which for a small vendor is a real presence. Look at who took the rest: YouCanBookMe's own site was cited on twenty-one of the thirty questions, Cal.com on nineteen, Calendly on fourteen — and beside them Software Advice on seventeen, Capterra on fifteen, G2 on ten. The sharpest losses are the price questions. 'Affordable scheduling software' was answered with Calendly and Square. 'Calendar overlay pricing' — a SavvyCal feature, asked for by name — was answered with Microsoft's marketplace and Etsy, because no page on the site says whether that feature costs extra. The report's list for this one is short: claim the three review listings, put a price next to the feature, and answer 'best for small teams' on the pricing page it already has.

On each profile you claim, write the name, address, phone and website exactly as the site has them.

  Editors choose

  Cited on 16 of the 30 questions — by ChatGPT for “most recommended scheduling software”.

  Its 'best apps' articles answer the category question for the engines. A writer decides who is in them; the way in is an email to the writer saying what your tool does that the list leaves out.

We are small and unknown. Is this pointless?

It is the opposite. Assistants answer narrow questions from thin evidence, so being the only product that has clearly written up a specific use case is worth far more than it would be in traditional search, where the big sites take the general terms and the long tail both.

Should we buy G2 placement?

That is a real option and it is not what this measures. The report tells you which sources are being cited for your category; what you do with that is a budget decision.

Does content volume help?

Not by itself, and this is where we differ from most tools in this space. Thirty posts nobody asked for do not get you cited. One page that answers a question buyers actually ask does.

Can you publish to our site?

New pages into WordPress or Webflow, yes: we write them, you approve each one, and an approved page goes straight onto the site; one click takes it back down. Anything else — a section for a page that exists, or any page on a custom marketing site, which is where most software companies are — comes as Markdown or HTML to commit.

How do you pick the questions?

They are suggested from what your site says it does and who it says it is for, then asked the way a buyer types them. You see every one before the first report runs, and you can add, change or pause any of them.

Do you track rankings weekly?

There are no rankings to track. The prompts can be asked weekly or monthly on a schedule, or whenever you start a report; what is tied to your change is Proof. A week after a page goes live, the prompts it was written for are asked again and set beside the answers before it, so the before and after is read against your change rather than a week of drift.
