The Lead Lab •

Practical growth notes and tools for local business owners.

See what AI says about your business

When a customer asks AI who the best in your trade is, it names a few businesses — and most owners aren’t among them. Enter yours below and we’ll sample 12 real AI answers for your trade and city. It takes about a minute, and it’s free.

Free during our research period — no email, no card, and your result shows on this page. This is a sampled snapshot — AI answers vary from run to run.

Who got named instead

    What the AI answers said

    Why businesses get named: AI repeats what the web already says — review count and recency, a complete Google profile, and clear facts on your website. Reviews are the lever most owners control.

    Reviews are the lever. We’re automating it.

    The Lead Lab is building Review Engine: it asks every happy customer for a review at the right moment — automatically, honestly, no filtering, no games — and shows you the reviews landing each week. Big review platforms charge $75–$399/mo and lock you into their whole system. Ours: $29/month flat. No contracts. No per-location fees. No CRM switch.

    Founding cohort: the first 100 businesses lock in $29/month forever. When they’re gone, the price goes up.

    Published pricing from major review platforms, checked October 2026.

    Your email holds your place in line — the business, trade, and city fields are already filled in from your check. No payment today.

    How the check works

    We ask AI models questions a real customer might ask, using these four templates:

    We sample multiple AI models and show you the answers we actually received. The result is a dated snapshot sample, not a score and not a ranking — AI answers change from run to run, and a different sample can name different businesses.

    Businesses are matched by name in the answer text. Nobody can pay to be named, and placement in AI answers is never for sale.

    To be clear about our interest: The Lead Lab sells a reviews tool, Review Engine, which is currently a founding waitlist. We never sell placement, and paying us — when the tool launches — will not buy a mention in any AI answer.

    If you gave us a website, we also run a few basic readability checks on it: whether the site loads, whether it has an llms.txt file, whether its robots.txt blocks AI crawlers, and whether it has a tap-to-call link. Those checks describe your site as we found it on the run date.

    Questions

    Is the check free?

    Yes, free during our research period.

    Is Review Engine live?

    Not yet — it is a founding waitlist. Members get first access and the locked $29/month founding price when it opens. The founding cohort is capped at the first 100 businesses — after that, the price goes up. No payment is taken today.

    Will this get me named by AI?

    No one can promise that; anyone who does is selling you something. Reviews, a complete Google profile, and clear facts on your website are what AI repeats — that is the honest work, and it is what our tool is being built to help with.

    Do you sell my data?

    No. We use signup info to run the waitlist and to learn which trades and cities want this. Never sold.
