AI operating system
What is an AI operating system?
It’s the set of AI tools your business runs on: chosen for impact, connected into one workflow, and managed by Plem as your business and AI evolve.
Which AI tools will you use?
The ones that create the biggest impact for your business. We research, filter and test them so you don’t have to, then connect them into one system.
Do I have to replace the tools I already use?
Not necessarily. If a tool you already use is working, we connect it into your system. We only suggest a change when another tool clearly does the job better.
Is my data safe?
Security comes first. Every system we build is set up for enterprise-grade security and data privacy.
Who helps us after launch?
Real people, whenever you need them. We keep monitoring, testing and improving your system as your business and AI change.
AI visibility
What is AI visibility for a local business?
It’s how often AI tools name your business when someone asks who to hire. ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, Grok and Google’s AI each suggest a few businesses, and visibility is how often yours is one of them.
How do I get my business recommended by ChatGPT?
We make the places ChatGPT reads describe you clearly and consistently: your Google profile, directories, reviews and website. We check what AI says today, fix the gaps, then check again.
How do you check if AI recommends my business?
We ask each engine the same buyer questions for your services and area, save every dated answer and count the recommendations. Being mentioned is counted separately from being recommended.
What do you do to improve my AI visibility?
We correct and complete your listings, make your business details match everywhere, reply to your reviews and share your real work, so AI has accurate, current information about you.
Do you write content for me?
We don’t make things up. We repackage what you already have, like reviews, photos, listings and business facts. Anything posted in your name is approved by you first.
What do I need to do?
Very little. You give us access to your listings, approve drafts, and send the few things only you have, like a license or an insurance document. Your portal shows anything waiting on you.
How long does it take to show up in AI answers?
Listing fixes can show up within weeks, but AI engines update at different speeds. We re-measure on a schedule and show you the change each time.
Can you guarantee AI will recommend me?
No, and no one honestly can. What you get is an honest count every check, with the real answers behind it.
Pricing
How much does it cost?
It depends on your business and your market. Pricing has three parts: tool subscriptions, a one-time Plem build fee and monthly management. On a call we look at where you are first, then give you a price.
What does the implementation fee cover?
Your annual tool subscriptions, scaled to your business size and needs. It’s a one-time setup for long-term impact.
What is the one-time Plem fee?
Plem’s build and setup cost to design, integrate and launch your AI operating system. One investment, and a lasting foundation.
What does monthly management include?
Ongoing management, optimization and support to keep your system performing. There’s a 6-month minimum, and it scales with you.
Why isn’t there a price list?
Because the right system depends on your business and your market. We look at what AI says about you and how you work today, then give you a clear price. You pay for the work, not for software.
Still have a question?
Ask us on a twenty-minute call. We’ll also show you which AI answers name you today, and what we’d fix first.
Takes twenty minutes. Pick a time that suits you.
