Most of our work starts with someone finding us online, so being easy to discover matters more than anything else. After we tidied up our listings, our studio started coming up far more often in search, and now in AI answers too when people look for an animation team. Day to day, every inquiry from Instagram, email and our site drops into one inbox, so nothing gets buried while we're heads down on a project. I also schedule our showreel and work posts across our socials from the same place instead of doing each one by hand. For a small studio, having discovery, messages and social in one spot saves us real time.

Our locations are much easier to find now. Once the listings were consistent, more people started showing up in person, and we noticed some of that traffic is coming from AI tools, not just regular search. It's simple to keep everything updated in one place. Good alternative to Birdeye and Podium (they are very pricey).

Our restaurants are much easier to find online now. Getting our listings accurate and consistent across every location lifted our local SEO, and we started showing up in AI discovery too, when people ask chatGPT or Gemini where to eat nearby. The QR-code review requests grew our review count fast, and the AI review replies mean every review get a response without me sitting on it. Pulling our numbers through their MCP is a convenient bonus.
