Stampli: AI visibility sample

Engine: Grok Bot web-search answer tool (an AI answer engine with citations). ChatGPT, Perplexity and Google AI Overviews were not queried in these samples. Sample size is small, so treat every rate as directional. This is unsolicited sample research, not a report commissioned by Stampli.

Findings

• Discovery share of voice: named in 3 of 5 unbranded discovery runs (both mid-market runs and the AI-coding run).
• Comparison presence: named in 2 of 2 "Bill.com alternatives" runs.
• Missed: the QuickBooks small-business prompt and the NetSuite AI-invoice prompt.
• Price answer was accurate (quote-based), but the dollar figures came from third-party sites. 1 of 5 citations was stampli.com.
• robots.txt explicitly allows OAI-SearchBot, ChatGPT-User, PerplexityBot and Claude crawlers, and /llms.txt is present. A generic scripted request got intermittent HTTP 403s on the homepage and /pricing. Requests identifying as OAI-SearchBot got 200, so this is probably fine for AI crawlers, but it’s worth checking in server logs.

Top fixes

1. Check server logs to confirm bot protection never challenges allowed AI crawlers.
2. Publish an official page explaining how pricing works.
3. Lead with specific NetSuite and QuickBooks pages.
