UES vs Profound
One is software your team runs. The other is the work, done for you. Here is each, side by side.
Get my free reportThe answer is read before the list is.
40% of consumers now use generative AI when they search. That is BrightLocal.
Where an AI Overview appears, the top-ranking page takes a 34.5% lower click-through rate. Ahrefs, across 300,000 keywords.
When a Google AI summary shows, a traditional result is clicked in 8% of visits. Without one, nearly 15%. That is Pew Research.
When an assistant answers with three companies and none of them is yours, the ranking you paid for is never seen.
What each one is.
One is software your team runs. The other is the work, done for you, by people you do not have to hire.
We are not software. Nobody logs in and there is no seat to fill. We ask the twenty questions, change what the engines read, and send you the result. It is built for an owner with no marketing team to hand a draft queue to.

Profound describes itself as an AI marketing platform. A team sees what customers ask AI, deploys agents to act on it, and measures the results in one workbench. Every statement in the right-hand column is read from that company's own public pages on the date shown. It describes; it does not assess. Products change, so check the source before relying on a row.
Four moves, repeated monthly.
Measure where you stand
We ask twenty buying questions. Then we write down every company each answer names.
Fix what the engines read
We make the site machine-readable. Crawler access. Structured data. A sitemap that matches reality.
Build the evidence they cite
Answers get built from sources. We write the pages and earn the mentions that get quoted.
Re-measure every month
Same questions. Same scoring. You can see what moved, and why.
$14,997 a year. No setup fee.
Quoted annually rather than monthly, because the work takes months. Call answering, appointment booking and review requests are priced separately.
See pricingThree questions to ask any provider.
Ask us these too. Plain answers are easy to judge.
Show me the measurement before the strategy
Ask which questions they track and what today's answer is. A provider who knows where you stand now can prove progress later.
Which assistants, and how many
Answers differ by engine. Ask which ones they query. Then ask which ones they skip.
What does the report actually contain
Ask to see a real one. It should show the question, the companies named, and the sources cited. A score with no working is not a report.
We publish our working.
Our method is published in full, including what we did not record. Every question, every date, every company each answer named.

UES vs Profound — what does Ultimate Elite Solutions do?
Ultimate Elite Solutions measures whether AI assistants name your business when customers ask who to hire. It fixes the signals the engines read and builds the evidence they cite. The same twenty questions are re-run every month. It works from 420 Columbia Dr, Ste 110, West Palm Beach, FL 33409. It serves businesses across the United States.
How much does AI visibility cost?
AI Visibility is $14,997 a year, with no setup fee. It is quoted as an annual engagement rather than a monthly retainer, because the work takes months. The free report costs nothing and needs no call.
What should I ask any AI visibility provider before switching?
Ask for the measurement before the strategy. Which questions they track, who chose them, and what today's answer is. Ask how many assistants they query, and which. Ask to see a real report. Ask what happens in the first ninety days if the number has not moved, and who owns the pages if you leave.
How long before an AI assistant names my business?
Weeks rather than days, and longer in a crowded category. The documented curve is flat for the first two months. Anyone quoting you a date is quoting a schedule that is not theirs to set.
Is this software I log into?
No. There is no dashboard, no seat and nothing to learn. We run the twenty questions and do the work on the site, the data and the listings. You get the month's result. The questions asked. The companies that came back. Whether yours was among them. If you have a marketing team that wants to drive the work itself, a platform is the shape you want.
