A fund plays this game twice. And almost no one is measuring it yet.
Your deal flow
Founders research investors through AI before sending a single message. What models say about your fund (thesis, stage, check size) affects who reaches out to you.
Your portfolio’s sales
Your portfolio companies’ customers ask AI who to buy from. A company that is absent from the answer, or that AI describes incorrectly, loses deals it will never know about. No board deck shows this today.
The window is now: most of the market isn’t measuring its AI position yet. The fund that measures first knows something about its portfolio that competitors don’t.
The best funds don’t wait for information to arrive — they build their own picture.
How AI assistants describe your portfolio companies is quickly becoming part of that picture: it shapes how customers build vendor shortlists and how the market reads these companies, yet it rarely appears in any board materials.
This is not a gap anyone is hiding. Most companies simply haven’t checked yet — and AI answers can carry an outdated price, the wrong category or a competitor’s narrative for many months before anything shows up in pipeline numbers.
A portfolio survey gives you an independent, measured view: who is recommended, who is merely listed, who is absent, and why. On your own timeline, ahead of the conversation rather than in reaction to it.
In a market where AI writes the first draft of what customers think, having your own view of that draft is part of knowing your portfolio.
Four deliverables. One order form.
A Basic report for every company
Presence in answers from ChatGPT, Google AI Overviews and AI Mode, what AI says about the company compared with its website, the companies recommended instead and why, the AI Visibility Score (AVS) and a 4-week action plan.
Portfolio summary
Companies by score, changes and issues shared by several companies.
Fund survey
A Full report on founders’ questions about funds: whether your fund appears in answers, with what thesis, and which funds AI names next to you.
LP-ready material
Every figure carries a measurement stamp (model, date) and traces to a stored answer in the archive. With Monitoring you get four measurements a year.
We don’t manipulate answers, we don’t buy recommendations, and we don’t guarantee placement. CompanyNow measures and shows what to fix. Honestly, including when you won’t like the result.
Seven steps. From domain to report.
- 1DISCOVER
Company profile
From the company’s website we establish its industry, offer and market.
- 2QUERY
Customers’ questions
We write questions for the company’s profile, without company names, the way its customers ask. For the fund, we ask the way founders ask.

Measurement in AI systems
Questions go to AI systems through the API, with the same settings, with search and without.
