Perplexity for Business: The Complete Guide (2026)
I wrote this guide because I kept seeing research teams waste hours on work that Perplexity can collapse into minutes.

Your GEO Strategy Is Failing Three Out of Four AI Audiences
I spent two and a half hours on a podcast about AI search with David Bain, and one conversation kept pulling us back: we talk about 'AI search' as if it's one channel, but ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, and Gemini don't share users—they share a category name.

This article breaks down exactly what that means for how you should be optimizing for each platform in 2026.
Your GEO Strategy Is Failing Three Out of Four AI Audiences
Most SEOs treat AI search as a single channel, but the data tells a completely different story. I spent two and a half hours with David Bain unpacking why ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, and Gemini don't share audiences—they share a category name. The research is stark: 71% of all cited sources appear on only one platform, and roughly 9 out of 10 domains that Perplexity cites are invisible to ChatGPT users. This article breaks down what that means for your strategy on each platform, because optimizing for the wrong audience isn't a content problem—it's a structural one.
A Practical Setup Guide for 3la.ai

It's practical, step-by-step, and designed so you can start measuring AI visibility today.
