Jason Colapietro on AI MarketingEntity SEO and AI-answer visibility, practiced in public

Marketing for the era when AI answers first

Search is no longer ten blue links. It is a model that decides whether you exist. This is the working record of how one founder makes sure it decides yes.

The problem

A query about Suede Labs used to return the site. Now it returns a synthesized answer, and the answer is only as good as the entity graph the model was trained and retrieves on. If the graph is fragmented, the answer is wrong or empty.

The method

Fix the entity first. One canonical home per entity, every satellite site declaring the same identity in structured data, and every claim stated in plain sentences a model can lift.
