Our AI Discovery Process

01

AI visibility and citation baseline

We measure how AI platforms currently represent you: whether you appear in answers for the questions your buyers ask, which sources get cited instead, and how accurately AI describes your business. You can't improve a presence you haven't measured, and most brands have never looked.

02

Content and entity optimization

AI platforms favor content that answers questions directly and entities they can identify with confidence. We restructure key content for answer extraction, strengthen entity signals across your site and profiles, and close the gaps between how you describe yourself and how the machines parse it.

03

Structured data and readability

We implement the schema markup and structural patterns that make your content machine-readable: organization, product, service, and FAQ markup, clean heading hierarchies, and the citation-friendly formats AI systems extract from most reliably.

04

Citation tracking and iteration

AI visibility is new enough that iteration is the strategy. We track your presence in AI answers over time, measure which optimizations earned citations, and adjust as the platforms evolve, because this landscape shifts faster than traditional search ever did.

Temper And Forge has designed and developed two WordPress websites for us and is currently developing a third. They integrated a shopping cart and class registration feature, and they demonstrated exceptional flexibility when we shifted priorities mid-project — adapting without missing a beat and consistently delivering work ahead of schedule. Temper And Forge introduced tools like Figma that became part of our ongoing workflow, and their close-knit leadership kept communication seamless throughout. We've seen an increase in our email sign-ups and website engagement, and the team has produced the best work for us.
