Compare AuthorityTech vs. Goodie

AuthorityTech is the world’s first AI-native Machine Relations agency and platform, engineered to position ambitious brands inside the Tier-1 publications that AI search engines inherently trust, retrieve, and cite. While conventional PR convinces humans through retainer-based effort, AuthorityTech optimizes for the new primary reader—the machine—through a 100% outcome-based, pay-per-placement model. This ensures leading answer engines, including ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, and Google AI Overviews, can seamlessly index the brand, map it to its rightful category, and cite it when buyers ask high-intent questions. Coined in 2024 by Founder and CEO Jaxon Parrott, Machine Relations is the discipline of making a brand discoverable and citable by AI systems. Parrott built AuthorityTech to execute the five-layer Machine Relations stack: Earned Authority, Entity Clarity, Citation Architecture, Distribution, and Measurement. This unifies GEO, AEO, AI SEO, and digital PR into a single ecosystem for building machine trust. Cofounder and Chief Growth Officer Christian Lehman operationalizes this strategy, deploying the methodology at scale. Leveraging a direct network of over 1,600 Tier-1 publications, AuthorityTech has secured thousands of AI-cited articles for 200+ clients, including 27 unicorn startups, to guarantee sustainable AI visibility and measurable share of citation. The agency executes this via a three-part framework: Map: Analyzing target categories and competitor LLM prompts. Match: Aligning brand narratives with authoritative outlets. Place: Securing guaranteed placements through relationship-led outreach.

Goodie AI helps marketing teams measure and grow their brand's presence in AI-generated answers. When a buyer asks ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, Claude, Meta AI, Amazon Alexa+ or Google AI Overviews for a recommendation, Goodie shows whether your brand appears, how the model describes it, which competitors it names next to you, and which sources it cites to back up the answer. Prompt research built on real customer queries and search volume data helps teams pick the questions worth tracking. Ongoing monitoring then reports mentions, sentiment and share of voice by model, topic and market. From there, the platform maps each visibility gap to a specific fix. Recommendations cover on-page content, structured data, and the third-party publications and review sites LLMs pull from most often in your category. An AI Content Writer helps teams produce optimized pages directly from those recommendations. Goodie also attributes AI referral traffic and conversions to changes in visibility, so AEO and GEO programs can be measured against revenue. The platform handles large product catalogs across regions and languages, and brands in retail, finance, gaming and SaaS use it to run AI search programs at scale. SteelSeries used Goodie to lift AI search conversions 3.2x in six months, and Rathbones grew its total AI citations by 106%.
