What you get

One audit, six executable deliverables. Not a theoretical report left on a shelf.

Every deliverable is designed to be picked up directly by your teams or your agency. Unified format, stable vocabulary, priorities ranked by expected impact on the AI grid.

  1. 01

    Criteria mapping

    The comparison grid that ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Perplexity and DeepSeek already weigh on your market. Relative weight of each criterion, sources of authority, dominant angles.

  2. 02

    Competitive matrix

    Who AI cites in your place. How it positions you against your real competitors, and against alternatives that should not be sitting in the same category.

  3. 03

    Blind-spot detection

    The proof, certifications, cases and standards that should surface but stay invisible. For each, the precise documentation cause is identified.

  4. 04

    Prioritized correction plan

    The ordered list of content, structures and sources to publish or rework. Ranked by expected impact on the grid, not by volume produced.

  5. 05

    Executable documentation briefs

    Briefs ready to be picked up by your marketing teams, your agency or ours. Format, structure, vocabulary, proof to mobilize, no interpretation needed.

  6. 06

    Measured baseline

    A quantified snapshot of your starting position, so that every subsequent shift becomes measurable month after month.

Not a GEO audit

SEO works on visibility. Beyond Mentions works on the decision.

One measures whether you are cited. The other measures whether you are chosen. Compatible with your existing SEO or GEO agency, as a layer on top.

Process

Five weeks, from the first call to the executable plan.

A clear path, sharp deliverables at every step. You keep control over the decision to move forward. Engagement only kicks in at the full audit step.

Beyond the audit

The audit is not the end. It is the start of a measured engagement over time.

A market moves. An AI grid shifts every month, as your competitors publish, as the models update, as your own publishing cadence builds up. Two extensions turn the audit into a durable advantage.

On demand · co-built

Editorial support

Beyond Mentions supports the writing of corrective content in direct collaboration with your teams: sales, technical, marketing. We do not write in your place. We hold the semantic consistency between what your experts know, what your sales people say in the field, and what LLMs need to pick up in their answers.

  • Briefs activated through co-construction, not delivered out of context.
  • Vocabulary stabilized across Sales, Tech and Marketing.
  • Clear arbitration workflow on sensitive claims.
Recurring engagement · monthly

Monthly monitoring

Every month, Beyond Mentions re-runs the audit on the corpus of prompts stabilized with you. You see the grid shift: criteria that rise, competitors that recede, proof finally picked up, sources of authority that flip. Engagement duration is scoped to your market: six months, twelve months, or beyond.

  • Monthly re-measurement on the same corpus for strict comparability.
  • Tracking of decision share of voice and proof reuse.
  • Monthly trajectory review and next priorities.

Monitoring turns the audit from a report into a steering instrument. That is what sets a Beyond Mentions audit apart from a one-shot report delivered and forgotten.

Where it works

Beyond Mentions is relevant when your market has these conditions.

No vertical promise. Our method applies to markets where the decision is complex, information is asymmetric and the cycle is long. The precise sector matters less than the market structure.

Market signal AI risk Beyond Mentions response
High decision risk AI selects the option easiest to defend. Publish evidence, thresholds and rejection criteria.
Information asymmetry AI imposes a generic comparison grid. Structure proprietary buying criteria.
Long cycle Objections form before sales contact. Turn documentation into decision assets.

Market source: Involve Digital, GEO for B2B & High-Consideration Services.

Current engagements cover technical PPE, industrial fashion-tech, enterprise cybersecurity, aerospace tier 1 and other markets where these conditions apply.

Frequently asked questions

What we get asked before signing.

  • How much does a Beyond Mentions audit cost?

    Custom quote after the first call. Scope depends on the number of categories to cover, the depth of the competitive analysis and the duration of monitoring you want. Beyond Mentions is not built for markets where price decides in first intention. The investment reflects the stakes protected, not an hourly volume.

  • How long until measurable results?

    A full cycle (audit, correction, re-measurement) spans three to four months. Some corrections are picked up by LLMs in under a week. Others take several months depending on domain authority and the pace of competing publications. Monthly monitoring makes the trajectory visible rather than assumed.

  • How does it work alongside our existing SEO or GEO agency?

    As a complement, never as a replacement. Your agency works on visibility and traffic, Beyond Mentions works on the cognitive and decision layer. Beyond Mentions documentation briefs can be executed by your existing agency. That is in fact the most frequent setup.

  • How do you work with our internal teams?

    The optional content support is built for this. We co-construct with your sales, technical experts and marketing. Your teams know what is true about your market, we know how to make it readable by LLMs. Consistency is built together, not out of context.

  • When is Beyond Mentions not the right fit?

    When the sales cycle is measured in days rather than months. When price systematically decides the call. When the offer is interchangeable with a dozen undifferentiated competitors. In those cases, we say so honestly during the first call and we point you toward more appropriate approaches.

  • Confidentiality and compliance?

    We query LLMs through public interfaces or paid APIs, in strict respect of each provider's terms of service. No personal data processed, no scraping. Standard NDA signed before the audit. The posture meets the expectations of the markets we serve: aerospace, medtech, defense, energy.
