CLEVELAND - Dec. 18, 2025 - PRLog -- AnswerDock, Inc. announced the launch of its platform that helps businesses guide how AI-powered search engines interact with their content. With 45% of consumers now using AI assistants like ChatGPT, Claude, and Perplexity for research before purchasing, AnswerDock provides the missing link between marketing teams and the AI models rapidly becoming the dominant way people discover businesses online.
The challenge is acute: when potential customers ask AI assistants about products or services, businesses have zero visibility and no control over how their value proposition is presented. A prospect might ask "What's the best CRM for small businesses?" and receive an AI-generated answer that misrepresents a company's offering—or never mentions them at all.
AnswerDock solves this through a breakthrough approach inspired by social sharing widgets. Just as "Share This" buttons made it frictionless to share content on social media, AnswerDock makes it effortless for website visitors to explore content with their preferred AI assistant while giving businesses the ability to frame the conversation.
How It Works
When a visitor arrives at a website with AnswerDock installed, they see a widget that allows them to instantly send page content to ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, or Perplexity. The key innovation: businesses can pre-load these AI interactions with strategic context that ensures accurate interpretation—emphasizing unique differentiators, addressing objections, or highlighting specific use cases.
"We kept seeing the same pattern," said Andy Halko, CEO of AnswerDock. "Prospects were researching solutions using AI and arriving at websites with their minds already made up based on incomplete information. The more AI models interact with your properly contextualized content, the more likely they are to reference your business accurately in future conversations."
Intelligence That Didn't Exist Before
AnswerDock provides marketing teams with analytics that were previously impossible to obtain:
- AI Engine Attribution: Discover which AI platforms are driving traffic and how visitors from each behave differently
- Question Intelligence: See the exact questions visitors are asking before they click through
- Content Prioritization: Track which sections AI models consistently highlight
- Engagement Patterns: Understand how AI-referred visitors navigate differently from traditional search traffic
"This is competitive intelligence about how the next generation of search works," added Halko. "Agencies can finally show clients what's happening in the 'dark funnel' before prospects reach their website."
Built for Marketing Teams and Agencies
AnswerDock is purpose-built for marketing agencies and in-house teams looking to stay ahead of the AI search curve. The lightweight script installs in minutes on any platform.
The platform is free, complementing the company's suite including BuyerTwin (buyer persona research), Frictionless (web and AEO auditing), and CopyFlow.ai (AI-powered copywriting).
"Forward-thinking agencies are adding Answer Engine Optimization as a standard service," said Tony Zayas, Chief Revenue Officer. "The agencies that help clients master AI search visibility today will own significant competitive advantage. This is the SEO moment of 2026."
AnswerDock is available immediately at https://answerdock.ai/.
