The Woof Back

Your next customer just asked ChatGPT who to call

SEO that proves
what it earned.

We get you named by Google and by the AI assistants - then show you which article brought the money in.

The answer “who should I call for a boiler repair?”
  • Your business named
  • Northside Plumbing & Heating 4.6 ★
  • Citywide Drain Services 4.4 ★
  • Bestrate Boiler Care 4.2 ★

This is the whole market now. Everyone else is not ranked lower - they are not mentioned.

Why now

Ten blue links became one answer.

When your customer asks an AI assistant a question, they do not get a page of options to work through. They get one answer and a short list of names. That list is the entire market. Everyone else is not ranked lower - they are simply never mentioned.

The list is short

An answer names a handful of businesses. Not ten, not a page of options. There is no second page to be on.

It compounds

A business that gets named is read, linked and named again. The gap does not stay the size it starts at.

It is being set now

The engines re-check and re-decide constantly. Whoever is feeding them this quarter is writing the defaults.

You are not competing for a ranking any more.
You are competing for a slot in the answer.

The machine

Six stages. One pipeline.
No handoffs to lose things in.

Most teams run these as six tools and four people, and lose the thread between each pair. Here they are one system, so the source that justified a sentence in stage one is still attached to it when stage six attributes the deal.

Research

Find the questions your market is actually typing.

We dig up the real questions people type before they spend money in your market. And every fact we ever publish carries where it came from and when - which is exactly why people and machines end up trusting it.

Write

Answer them better than anyone else has.

Each piece answers the question straight away, in your voice, with the evidence attached. Structured the way Google and the AI assistants like to read - which is a technical way of saying it gets picked.

Publish

Publish it on your site, which stays yours.

Not a draft sitting in your inbox waiting for you - finished pages, published on your own website, built so every search engine and AI assistant can read every word. You own all of it.

Rank

Climb the Google rankings, then hold the spot.

We check your positions weekly, watch your site health and anything going stale, and fix it before it costs you a customer. A ranking is rented space - we keep paying the rent so you keep the address.

Cite

Get named when someone asks an AI who to call.

Every day we put your customers’ questions to ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini and Claude, and write down who got named. When it is not you, we know exactly who it was - and that becomes next week’s work.

Convert

Turn readers into enquiries you can trace.

Calls, forms and enquiries land in your inbox with a note saying which page earned them. So when you ask “what is this actually making me?”, the answer is a number, not a shrug.

What you see

Here is what we see when we look at a market. Yours has one of these too.

These two boards belong to a real client - a local business, names withheld, numbers untouched. The trades and towns will differ from yours. The situation will not: somewhere, a version of these boards already exists for your market, and you are either on it or you are not.

This client is a realtor, which is why the names are Zillow and Redfin. In your market it will be different names - a directory, a franchise, the rival across town - but somebody is collecting the customers who ask. This board tells us who, question by question, so we know exactly whose spot we are taking.

Every one of these is a question real people typed before spending money - with the system’s own note on why it is worth answering. Notice what they have in common: the business that answers them first becomes the obvious one to call. Your customers are typing their own list right now. We find it, then answer it.

On your first call we run both of these boards for your market, live, in front of you. You see who is taking your customers and what they are asking. You keep the answer either way - even if you never hire us.

We do not print numbers we cannot source.

Three figures follow. Each one is a count of rows in the production database rather than a claim about how well things are going.

139 answers

logged in six days

For one account in its first week: every tracked question put to the engines we check, with what came back and when. On day one they were recommended exactly zero times, and we said so on day one.

19 domains

named, not implied

The share-of-voice board for that account lists nineteen competitors being recommended instead, with coverage and trend for each. That is the work queue, not a slide.

4 assistants

checked every day

ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini and Claude, on a daily cron, per tracked query, per brand - recorded whether the answer names you or not. Search-presence sources are tracked separately and never counted as answer citations.

You will have noticed this page does not claim ten thousand customers.

The engine refuses to publish a statistic without a source, and we hold our own front door to the standard we sell. The figures above are row counts from the production database on a stated date, not growth claims.

Anyone can generate content now. The entire remaining game is being trusted enough to be named.

  • Every number has a sourceA statistic without a named publisher and a date never reaches the page. Yours or ours.
  • Machines can verify all of itThe code behind each page says exactly what the page says. That checkability is why engines trust it enough to repeat it.
  • A real person signs every pieceYour name, or a named expert with credentials - never “admin”. People buy from people; so do the machines, oddly.
  • Nothing is left to rotAnything approaching ninety days old gets refreshed before Google notices it aged. Stale pages quietly lose customers.

What it will not publish

Most SEO tools help you write faster. This one is mostly a list of ways to stop you.

Anybody can generate content. The hard part is being the source an assistant is willing to repeat, and that comes from what you refuse to put your name on.

Every number has to point at where it came from

A figure that matters gets tagged to the specific piece of evidence it came from. If it has no tag, or the tag points at something that does not actually contain it, the draft is stopped before a human ever reads it.

Invented figures get deleted, not reworded

When a made-up number survives the rewrite loop, the sentence holding it is cut out of the article. It is not softened, hedged or reworded into something that merely sounds defensible. It is removed.

An 85 out of 100 floor no editor can wave through

Every article is scored on coverage, sourcing and structure before it can publish. Editors can override plenty of things in this system. That floor is not one of them.

Five blogs repeating one study count as one study

Corroboration is counted by registrable domain, so an echo chamber does not read as confirmation. A claim also records whether its date is the date it was published or just the day we read it, because those are not the same thing and treating them as one is how bad numbers spread.

Health, money and legal get stricter gates

Subjects where being wrong actually hurts somebody carry extra trust rules, and an article that does not meet them does not go out. No override, no exception for a deadline.

How we know whether AI recommends you

We ask the assistants your customers’ questions, every day, and write down who got named.

Not all of them can be measured the same way, so we do not pretend they can. Here is exactly what happens and what gets stored.

Perplexity and Gemini are asked outright

We put the question to them directly and read the answer for whether you appear in it and where.

ChatGPT is checked through a measurement API

Checked deliberately through an AI-optimisation endpoint rather than guessed at from a screenshot somebody took once.

Claude is measured too

Claude is checked on the same daily sweep as the rest. It was the last of the four to become measurable at all, which is why most tools still quietly leave it out of the number they show you.

Google AI Overviews is observed, not queried

There is no way to ask it directly, so your presence in it is read out of the weekly search crawl instead. We say so rather than quietly counting it as a citation.

What gets written down on every check

Whether you were cited, in what position, which of your URLs was used, which competitors turned up instead, and whether the engine returned nothing at all - which is a different thing from not citing you, and gets recorded differently.

We catch the assistants quoting you without crediting you

When an answer reuses your wording verbatim but names nobody, that is logged as unattributed reuse. You wrote the answer the machine gave. You should at least know about it.

And who is being named instead of you

Every host that shows up for your questions goes on a share-of-voice board, competitors included. When it is not you, we know exactly who it was - and that becomes the next thing we write.

How an enquiry becomes proof

Most agencies show you traffic. We show you the article that closed the deal.

Rankings and citations are the means. This is the part that answers the only question an owner actually asks.

A first-party beacon, on your own domain

First touch, referrer and campaign parameters are recorded into an append-only log that belongs to you. Nothing here depends on a third party deciding to keep supporting it.

The enquiry remembers which page produced it

A captured lead carries the article it came from, including whether it arrived by way of an AI citation, and then carries its own outcome: contacted, quoted, amount, completed.

Your CRM tells us when it closed, and we match it back

When you mark a deal won, that comes back to the enquiry it started as and gets stamped with its value and date. Works with the CRM you already use rather than asking you to move.

Revenue, joined per engine and per article

Citations, AI-referred visits, enquiries and closed revenue are joined up, so "which answer actually paid for itself" has a specific answer with a page attached to it.

Four ways to do this. One of them keeps working after you close the laptop.

For agencies

Run it for one brand.
Or thirty-five.

The system was multi-brand before it was anything else, because the first operator was an agency. Nothing about running thirty accounts is a bolt-on here.

  • One console, every brandSeparate voice, domain, team and reporting per brand. One place to run them.
  • Your logo, your domain, your marginWhite-label throughout. The client sees your practice, not our software.
  • Client reporting, generatedMonthly reports that assemble themselves from what actually happened.
  • Prospecting and audit built inFind the account, show them precisely what is broken, close them with the fix.
I run an agency

For agencies

Run it for one client, or for thirty-five, under your own name.

Most of the people reading this run an agency. The white label is not an add-on we bolted on afterwards - it is how the system is built.

Your logo and your colours, not ours

Your identity replaces The Woof Back everywhere your clients can see: the console, the reports, the client portal, the proof documents. They are buying from you.

Every client on one screen

One row per brand, with visibility, revenue attributed and retention status, so you can see which accounts are healthy and which need a conversation before the client has it with you.

Your billing, your margin

Per-agency invoicing and retainer terms are part of the platform. You set what you charge; we are not in that conversation.

The monthly report writes itself

A client-ready report with the wins, the citations, the attributed revenue and a shareable link - in your branding, generated rather than assembled by someone on your team at 11pm.

What we do not claim

The instruments have edges. Here they are.

The system flags its own thin samples and labels its own numbers directional rather than decision-grade. It would be strange to be less honest on the website than in the product.

Rankings are weekly. Citations are daily.

The AI citation sweep runs every day. Blue-link search rankings are checked weekly. Anyone quoting you a daily rank-tracking number is describing a different thing, or describing nothing.

A sample is a sample

One run of one prompt on one engine is close to noise. Combinations with too few runs behind them are flagged as thin rather than reported as fact, which sometimes means telling you we do not know yet.

Monitoring is budgeted, not infinite

Checks are prioritised within a per-brand budget rather than promised for every brand on every single day, because pretending otherwise would just mean quietly dropping checks and saying nothing.

Nothing is posted anywhere automatically

We generate the copy. A person decides whether it goes out. There is no silent autoposting running under your name.

No pricing page, and here is exactly why.

We will not print a number we cannot stand behind for your situation, for the same reason we will not print a statistic without a source. What we can tell you is the shape of it, which is most of what you actually need to judge.

One fee per brand, per month
It covers everything - the research, the writing, the publishing, the daily checks on rankings and AI recommendations, and the lead handling. Not six line items that add up to a surprise.
Nothing is metered
No per-article charge, no per-query charge, no credits to run out of mid-month. The system publishing more in a busy month costs you the same as a quiet one.
Founding rate is locked
Whatever a founding account agrees, it keeps for the life of the account. The rate for seat 240 will not be the rate for seat 12.
The number comes in the conversation
It depends on how many brands, which markets and how contested they are. We would rather quote you honestly once we have looked than publish a figure that turns out to be wrong for you.

From the form to the first published piece.

No discovery-call theatre and no six-week onboarding. This is the real sequence, including the part where we tell you it takes months.

  1. Within a week

    All five of us read it

    Applications are read on Fridays. You get a yes, a no with the reason, or a question - never silence and never a drip sequence.

  2. The first call

    We audit your domain in front of you

    We run your site and your market through the system live and show you what comes back, including whichever competitors are currently holding the answers. You keep that either way.

  3. Week one

    Your brand gets built

    Voice, author, domain and topics configured; the pipeline pointed at the questions your buyers actually ask. You approve the first drafts before anything is published.

  4. From week two

    It publishes, and the watching starts

    Content ships on a schedule, and the tracking of rankings and AI recommendations begins the same week - so you can see the starting line rather than being told about it later.

  5. Honestly, months not weeks

    When it starts working

    Google and the assistants move slowly. Expect early ranking movement inside a quarter and AI recommendations to follow. Anyone promising faster is guessing.

Five people and a system they had to build for themselves first.

The Woof Back started as an agency problem. We were running search and content for other people’s brands, watching the same work get lost between a writer, a spreadsheet, a rankings tool and a reporting deck, and losing the thread every time. So we built the pipeline we wanted, ran our own clients on it, and only then pointed it outward.

That is why the multi-brand and white-label parts are not bolted on: the first operator was an agency running accounts, and the software had to survive that before it was allowed to survive anything else.

We sell trust for a living, so it would be a poor look to be anonymous here. Founding accounts get names, faces and direct lines on day one - before anything is signed.

Based in Michigan, United States. Small on purpose, and staying that way for as long as the promise of a direct line means anything.

250 seats.
Then the door closes.

The cap is operational, not promotional. Every founding account gets direct access to the team building this, and that is a promise which stops being true somewhere north of a few hundred accounts. So we are stopping at 250.

  • Founding rate, locked for the life of the account
  • A direct line to the people building the product
  • Priority placement in the partner programme
  • Your requests carry weight on the roadmap

We read every application and reply either way. No newsletter, no drip sequence - if it is not a fit we will tell you quickly.

Questions worth asking.

I just want more customers. What does this actually do for me?

It makes you the business people find when they are ready to spend. Your customers ask Google, and increasingly ask AI assistants like ChatGPT, who to call - and someone gets named. We publish the material that gets you named, keep it winning, and hand you the enquiries that come off it, each with a note on which page earned it. The industry calls the ingredients SEO, AEO and GEO; you can happily never say those words again. That is what you would be paying us for.

How is this different from an AI writing tool?

A writing tool hands you text and wishes you luck. This runs the whole job: it publishes to your website, refuses to print a number it cannot back up, checks every day how you rank and whether the AI assistants recommend you, and delivers the enquiries that result. The writing is one stage out of six.

Can agencies run it for their clients?

Yes. The system is multi-brand from the ground up: separate voices, domains, teams and reporting per brand, under one console, with your own branding. Partner accounts also get the prospecting and audit tooling used to find and pitch new clients.

What is the founding cohort?

We are accepting 250 founding accounts. Founding accounts keep their rate for the life of the account, get direct access to the team building the product, and take priority in the partner programme. The cap is operational rather than promotional: direct access does not scale past a few hundred accounts.

Does the content actually get recommended by AI assistants?

That is the thing the system measures rather than the thing it promises. Tracking is built in specifically so the answer is evidence rather than a claim: you can see which questions get you recommended, which do not, and who holds the slot instead.

Do I own the content, and what happens if I leave?

You own all of it. Everything publishes to your domain under your brand and your author bylines, so it is your property from the moment it goes live rather than something rented from us. If you leave, there is a one-click export that hands back every article, image and redirect as files you can host anywhere. We do not hold your content hostage, because a business that has to would be admitting the work is not worth staying for.

What does it need from my side, and what does it plug into?

Realistically a couple of hours a month: approving the first drafts until you trust the voice, and telling us when something in the business changes. It publishes to your own domain, so there is no CMS migration to survive. Leads route to your inbox or your CRM, and analytics and Search Console connect if you want the fuller picture. If your site is somewhere awkward, say so in the application and we will tell you honestly whether it is a problem.

How long before anything happens?

Months, not weeks, and anyone telling you otherwise is guessing. Content starts publishing in the second week and tracking begins immediately, so you can watch from the starting line. Ranking movement typically shows inside a quarter and AI recommendations follow that. The compounding is the point: the pages you publish now are what gets quoted next year.

Somebody in your market is going to be the answer.
It may as well be you.

187 founding seats are still open. The application is five questions and we reply either way.
