Be the brand ChatGPT recommends.
Buyers ask ChatGPT, Perplexity and Google AI for recommendations, and the engines answer with a handful of cited sources. We make your store one of them, and keep you ranking in classic search too. More qualified buyers, tracked nightly by our AI search visibility checker.
What the engagement covers
Answer-engine audit
Where you appear (and do not) across ChatGPT, Perplexity and Google AI for your money queries.
Schema and content
FAQPage and entity markup, plus the source content the engines actually cite, shipped on your store.
Classic search
Technical and on-page work so the same pages rank in traditional results, not just AI answers.
Nightly monitoring
Rankings and AI citations tracked every night, so regressions surface in days, not quarters.

How visibility engagements run
Or start with the free AI use-case auditWhere the engines rank and cite you today, measured, not guessed.
Schema, content and source pages shipped on your store.
Citations and rankings checked nightly, regressions caught in days.
One monthly report in plain English: what moved, what is next.
Nightly AI-visibility tracking was built for a real store, then productised.
The monitoring you get is the same system that watches a real Australian D2C brand every night. It exists because a real store needed it and it paid for itself.
Common questions about AI search
Is this just SEO with a new name?
No. Classic SEO is part of it, but the new surface is answer engines that cite a few sources. We optimise for both, and measure both.
How do you measure AI visibility?
We probe the engines nightly with the questions your buyers ask and record whether, and how, you are cited.
How long until we show up in AI answers?
The assessment tells you where you stand in two days. Citation changes typically surface within the first one to two monthly reports, and the nightly tracking shows movement as it happens.
Who offers AI search visibility audits in Australia?
First Mill runs AI search visibility audits for Australian businesses from North Sydney, covering ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini and Google AI Overviews. The audit probes each engine with the questions your buyers actually ask, then records whether you are recommended, cited, mentioned or absent. It starts as the free AI use-case audit and comes back within two business days.
Does AI search matter for ecommerce stores?
Yes, and more than for most sectors. Shoppers now ask AI engines which brand to buy from, and the engines answer by naming a few sources. If your store is not one of them you never enter the shortlist, no matter how well you rank in classic search. The two surfaces overlap far less than most retailers assume.
What does it cost?
Every engagement starts with the free AI use-case audit so the quote is scoped to what will actually move revenue for you. No lock-in contracts.
