Canonical, always-current: https://adamgtm.com/aeo* ## The Solution & Approach Bluefish AI is an enterprise AEO/GEO platform for Fortune 500 brands, founded in 2024 and based in New York. The job it takes on is brand visibility, influence, and verification across AI channels including ChatGPT, Google AI, Claude, Perplexity, and Amazon Rufus. As of its April 2026 Series B it reported usage by roughly 10% of the Fortune 500 across 12+ verticals. Against peer Profound, Bluefish separates on protection rather than data depth. Its November 2025 AI Impact and Influence Analytics moved measurement past raw citation counts to an authority score, using an Impact Score and an Influence Rank to surface the sources that consistently shape AI answers. Its May 2026 AI Accuracy product extracts and verifies every factual claim AI channels make about a brand, traces each mismatch to the exact response, and scores it by severity. The company runs a steady research cadence (Black Friday, Holiday, Super Bowl, and the June State of Enterprise Brands in AI benchmark) that doubles as its category-marketing engine, turning its own measurement corpus into public proof. The recurring POV: citation frequency alone overstates true influence, and topic authority matters beyond raw counts. ## Best for Enterprise and Fortune 500 brands that want to measure and protect their visibility, influence, and factual accuracy across AI channels, not just track raw citations. ## Pricing & trial Sales-led; no public pricing page or self-serve trial. ## Agent Experience How you build on this platform (or wire it into your own agents): | Surface | Available | Docs | |---|---|---| | API | No | — | | MCP | No | — | | SDK | No | — | | CLI | No | — | | llms.txt | No | — | Sales-led with no public API, MCP, SDK, llms.txt, or developer docs, so there is no surface to build on or wire into your own agents directly. ## Reference customers Adidas, American Express, Hearst, LVMH, Ulta Beauty, Tishman Speyer. ## Recent moves - **2026-06-09**: Published the State of Enterprise Brands in AI benchmark, covering 194 of the world's largest enterprises across five categories and nine verticals.
