Your buyers stopped scrolling.
The B2B research journey collapsed from ten blue links to one answer. The brands inside the answer make the shortlist. The brands outside it do not. That is the shift, it is happening to your category right now, and the brands cited today will own the next decade of pipeline.

Buyer gets three names. You compete by being in the answer.
FOUNDER NOTE
“I audited 40+ B2B SaaS companies in 2025 and found the same pattern: their buyers were already shortlisting in ChatGPT, and the companies had no idea where they stood. That pattern became a method, then a company. I run Authority from Arendal. You'll only ever work with me.”
Authority is intentionally one operator. No account managers, no juniors, no shared Slack channels with five other clients getting the same advice. That's the price ceiling — and the reason the retainer cap is hard.
METHOD
The Shortlist Method. Three steps.
01
AUDITFind where you stand.
We run 200+ buyer-intent prompts against the five engines your buyers use. You get a scorecard, the 20 highest-leverage fixes, and a 90-day roadmap. 5-business-day SLA.

FIXBecome the answer.
We rewrite the pages and create the third-party citations that engines actually pull from. Monthly retainer, fixed scope, no procurement theater.

MEASUREKnow it worked.
Weekly shortlist tracking, pipeline attribution, and your own Shortlist Index dashboard. The number goes up or the retainer comes off.

Weekly reports.
Numbers go up. Or they don't.
Every Monday, retainer clients get a live dashboard showing their cite rate by engine, their rank in the Shortlist Index, and the prompts that moved. No vanity metrics.

“Can you guarantee we'll be cited in ChatGPT?”
No, and run from anyone who guarantees it. We guarantee the work, the scorecard, and the roadmap. If the audit surfaces fewer than 5 actionable issues, full refund within 14 days. I'd rather refund than ship slop.

No. SEO ranks pages on a results page; GEO determines which brands an AI model names when asked. The work is adjacent — content, citations, third-party validation — but the surfaces, the evaluation, and the playbook are different.
