Context

What is different about AI search for b2b saas

Common patterns we plan around. Your category and market will add specifics.

01

Comparison-heavy buying

Buyers ask for alternatives and head-to-head comparisons. Pages that answer fairly, with criteria, are quoted more than thin sales pages.

02

Docs and product facts

Help centers, integrations and API docs answer many assistant questions, but only if they are crawlable and current.

03

Many personas

A CFO, an IT lead and an end user ask different questions. Generic keyword tracking misses that.

Yes, factually and fairly, with sources and criteria. We avoid misleading claims and unverifiable superlatives.

Usually yes for public product docs, since assistants use them to answer feature questions. Private or licensed content is a separate decision.

We segment AI referrals in GA4, add a self-reported 'how did you hear about us' field where possible, and read both next to branded search trends. Attribution is imperfect and we say so.
