Get3rd hands over the playbook.
We write and publish the content.
Get3rd is a serious European AI-visibility product and one of the clearest thinkers in this category - they diagnose where a brand is missing from AI answers and hand over prioritized recommendations for someone to act on. The honest split is who that someone is. If your agency has editorial capacity in-house, better direction is exactly what you need and they are a strong buy. Found by AI is built for the agency that doesn't: we take the monitoring as the brief and produce the work - writing, publishing and the Monthly AI-Search Visibility Report - under your brand.
Stop at the dashboard.
Show the gap. Don't address it with content production. A client looking at a monitoring dashboard with no content production is not a recurring conversation; it's a quarterly question.
Write briefs from keyword tools.
Briefs come from search-volume guesswork. They produce useful articles, but the priorities don't reflect what AI assistants are actually citing for the client's category.
Turn monitoring evidence into the next brief.
Last month's monitoring evidence, competitor appearances, citation gaps, missing facts, weak topics, is where next month's topics are chosen from. Then the Monthly AI-Search Visibility Report shows what changed.
The wedge is the loop, not any single layer of it.
What each one does
Get3rd tells your team what to do.
We are the team that does it.
Get3rd monitors how a brand shows up in AI answers and turns that into scored, prioritized recommendations - a playbook. The methodology is thoughtful and the diagnostic breadth is real; they also describe the category more honestly than most, which is part of why we send people their way when they fit better. What the product does not do is write the articles, mark them up, or publish them. That work stays with your team, by design.
Found by AI starts where the playbook ends. The monitoring is not a deliverable we hand you - it is the brief. The buying questions leading AI assistants answer without your client in them become the month's articles; we write them, a named editor from your team or your client's reviews them, they publish to a blog on the client's subdomain or your white-label domain - one DNS record either way, and the monthly report documents what changed. Portal, report and emails carry your agency's brand, and we never solicit your clients.
Where each one sits
Where Get3rd sits
- A European AI-visibility analytics product with a genuinely strong diagnostic and prioritization methodology
- Built for teams that will execute: the output is direction - what to fix, in what order, and why it matters
- Breadth of diagnosis is their strength. If you want to track a wide surface and interrogate it yourself, that is what they are for
Where Found by AI sits
- One programme, sold only through white-label agency partners - you resell it, we run it, your brand is on every surface
- The loop is the product: monitoring becomes the brief, the brief becomes published articles, the report documents the change
- A named editor from your team or your client's on written-by and reviewed-by bylines, review before publish the default for every new client brand and publishing immediately opt-in per client
The operating difference
Detection is where most tools stop. The production is what we own.
Found by AI runs one loop for agency partners. Every week we put your client's buying questions to AI assistants, for example ChatGPT and Google's Gemini, and record who gets named. The questions your client is missing from are where the month's topics are chosen; then we write, publish and measure the content that answers them, and the Monthly AI-Search Visibility Report documents what changed. The monitoring is not a dashboard: it is the brief. All of it ships under your agency's brand.
| Generates content? | Publishes for you? | Publishing surface | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Get3rd | Recommendations, not articles | No | None |
| Found by AI | Yes | Yes | A blog we host on the client's subdomain or your white-label domain, one DNS record, agency-branded; the same articles over the Content Delivery API or our WordPress connector |
Get3rd
Found by AI
AI does the research and the first draft; a named person from your team or your client's reviews, edits and signs it before it goes out. Articles the programme produces can carry the name of the person who reviewed them; posts your client's team write name their writer. Three publish modes, chosen per client: review before publish is the default for every new client brand, with a 7-day review window; publishing immediately after our quality gate is opt-in per client; dark until reviewed is available on request. Translations follow the same mode as the original. The client's own writers can publish alongside the articles the programme produces. We never solicit a partner's clients.
Structural comparison
Deliberately no plan or price table. Their packaging changes, and a stale figure on our page would be worse for you than no figure at all - check anything commercial on Get3rd's own site. What follows is the difference in shape, which doesn't go out of date.
| Found by AI | Get3rd | |
|---|---|---|
| What it is | A delivered AI-search content programme, resold by agencies | An AI-visibility analytics product with prioritized recommendations |
| What arrives each month | Published articles plus a report on what moved | Analysis and a prioritized playbook to execute against |
| Who writes | We do | Your team |
| Who publishes | We do - client's subdomain or your white-label domain - one DNS record either way | Your team |
| Diagnostic breadth | Narrower - scoped to what we can act on and publish against | Broader - this is their core strength |
| Author accountability | A named reviewer from your team or your client's - real job title, public profile linked - with role-accurate written-by / reviewed-by credits and structured author data | Not applicable - they aren't the publisher |
| Review before publish | Three modes per client: review window (the default, 7 days), publish immediately (opt-in), dark until reviewed (on request); the client's own writers can publish alongside the articles the programme produces | Your team's own editorial process |
| Whose brand the client sees | Yours - portal, monthly report and emails are white-labelled | Theirs |
Key differences
Choose Get3rd if…
- You have editorial capacity in-house. If your writers exist and are underdirected, a good playbook is worth more to you than a delivery partner - the programme would duplicate capacity you already pay for
- You want diagnostic breadth: a wide tracked surface you interrogate yourself, rather than a narrower one scoped to what gets published
- You want to own the delivery end to end with your own tooling, and have no interest in a white-label supplier behind you
Choose Found by AI if…
- You run an agency with no spare editorial or development capacity, and a playbook nobody has the hours to execute is not progress
- You want a monthly artifact that defends the retainer: what the assistants said, what we published about it, what changed
- You want the whole thing under your brand, with a supplier who never approaches your clients
We would rather lose the deal than win it from an agency Get3rd fits better. Qualifying out is cheaper than a cancelled contract, for both of us.
Frequently asked questions
What does Get3rd actually do?
Get3rd is a European AI-visibility analytics product. It monitors how a brand appears in AI-assistant answers, scores what it finds, and turns it into prioritized recommendations your team executes against. The diagnosis and the direction are the product; the writing, the markup and the publishing stay with you. For plans and coverage, read their own site - we deliberately don't restate competitor figures here, because ours would go stale and theirs are authoritative.
Is Found by AI a replacement for Get3rd?
Only if the thing you're missing is production rather than direction. Get3rd is built for teams with content capacity that want a sharper sense of what to write. Found by AI is built for agencies without that capacity: the monitoring becomes the brief, and we write, review, publish and measure the work under your brand. Same category, opposite assumption about who does the writing.
Does Get3rd publish content for you?
No - and they don't claim to. Recommendations come out of the product; writing, schema markup and publication stay on your side. That is the structural difference this whole page rests on. With us, articles get written against the monitoring evidence, can carry a named editor from your team or your client's with written-by and reviewed-by bylines, pass whatever review step you've configured for that client, and go live on a blog we host on the client's subdomain or your white-label domain - one DNS record either way.
When is Get3rd the better buy?
When you have writers. An agency with in-house editorial capacity that wants broad diagnostics and the freedom to interrogate the data itself is squarely their buyer, and we'd tell you so on a call rather than after you'd signed with us. We're the better fit when the bottleneck is hours, not insight.
Bottom line
Get3rd is a credible product with a strong methodology, and for an agency with writers it is a genuinely good answer. Found by AI answers a different question: what happens when nobody has the hours to execute the playbook. We take the monitoring as the brief, produce and publish the content with a named editor from your team or your client's behind it, and document the change each month - under your agency's brand, and we never approach your clients. We promise the process, not a position in anyone's answer.

Next step
Run the loop on one client. Judge us on three reports.
Bring one retained client. We show you the monitoring, the articles it produced, the review flow and a real report. Three monthly reports later, you decide.
Founder terms, for agencies signing up through 31 December 2026: the founder rate is locked when you claim it and runs on a 12-month agreement per client brand, with one brand swap inside the term. Your first client brand is the trial: one retained client, three monthly report cycles, then decide at the third report. Roll out on the founder term, or stop there and take a full export. No minimum on standard monthly terms. No per-brand setup fee; a one-time partner onboarding fee applies, waived for founding partners.
Not an agency? Then we're not the right people to buy from, but your agency might be. Get in touch and we'll tell you plainly whether there's a partner for you.
