Botify
Updated 2026-11-12Enterprise search platform extending technical SEO into AEO/GEO and agentic commerce, with 500+ customers and roughly $85M raised, combining crawl and log data with AI Visibility measurement, AgenticCatalog product feeds, and the PageWorkers at Edge open beta.
Three scores, refreshed weekly from live market signals rather than a once-a-year analyst report. Presence is how established a vendor is in the market right now. Velocity is how fast they are shipping, raising, and winning customers. Agent Readiness is how easily your own agents can build on them through an API, MCP server, SDK, or CLI. Scores are relative across the vendors we track; the raw inputs ship in the downloadable dataset.
The Solution & Approach
Botify brings its enterprise SEO infrastructure to AEO/GEO. Full-site crawling and first-party log data show whether AI bots reach important content, while AI Visibility measures brand mentions, citations, sentiment, and competitive presence across AI answers. Its differentiation is the connection between website access, answer visibility, and implementation.
The platform spans AI Readiness, AI Visibility, and AI Activation. AgenticCatalog enriches product feeds for OpenAI and Google, while PageWorkers and SpeedWorkers deploy changes to help bots access and interpret content. Botify's category position is that visibility requires both measurement and control over what agents can read, extending search optimization into product discovery and agentic commerce.
Best for
Enterprise search and ecommerce teams managing large websites or product catalogs that need AI visibility measurement alongside crawl diagnostics, content deployment, and managed services.
Pricing & trial
Pricing not public; Botify sells negotiated enterprise contracts through a demo-led sales process, with managed services included and free-trial availability unspecified.
