In 2026, AI agents pick who customers see. We make sure that's you. Five pillars. One free audit. Open methodology.
FACTS is the framework for building a website AI agents can find, extract from, and trust. Where SEO ranks pages for humans typing keywords into Google, FACTS surfaces businesses to AI agents picking which 3 sources to cite when a user asks a question.
ChatGPT Search, Google AI Mode, Perplexity, Claude, Gemini — every major surface that used to deliver search traffic now intermediates it through an agent that picks ~3 sources. If you're not in the 3, you don't exist.
FACTS is how you get into the 3. (For context on what just changed, read our writeup of Google I/O 2026 — six announcements that changed how customers find businesses.)
Where Brandermind fits. FACTS covers the technical signals AI agents read: schema, content clarity, llms.txt, sitemap freshness, API compatibility. Brand mentions across Reddit, YouTube, podcasts, and industry publications matter too — but that work is hands-on and ongoing, not something we build for you in code. We score and improve the technical side. You build the brand presence side.
Every FACTS pillar moves you through the same path an AI agent walks before it names a business to a customer. Miss a step and you drop out of the answer.
Every FACTS Score grades against these five. Each is worth up to 20 points. The same scorecard powers the free FACTS Score, the methodology page, and the work we do for clients.
The strongest proof we can offer: we wrote the methodology out in the open, we built the audit, and we run it on our own website every month. The score above is whatever the tool told us this month.
