For consultants

When people look for a consultant on your topic in the AIs, do they answer with your name?

Boards, HR teams and executive committees already use ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude and others to find and validate who to hire. If the AIs do not recognise you as an authority on your topic, you are left off the list.

The decision moved

In the buying journey, the first screening no longer happens on Google. It happens in generative AIs.

Before asking for a proposal or opening your site, the decision-maker asks the artificial intelligence. Its answer becomes the list of names that will be considered.

Example of a question to the AIs
"Who are the best management consultants for a commercial restructuring?"
— A board building the supplier list
Example of a question to the AIs
"Does this consultant have authority in digital transformation? What results have they delivered?"
— HR validating a referral
Example of a question to the AIs
"Between these two independent consultancies, which one has a proprietary method for organisational culture?"
— A committee comparing the finalists
The cost of being invisible to the AIs

Being on Google is not the same as being in the AI’s answer.

You may have solid cases, blue-chip clients, published articles and a mature referral network — and the artificial intelligence may still recommend another name. When that happens, the project goes to whoever the AI understands best, not necessarily to whoever delivers best.

The solution

Sumaúma AI Presence makes you an authority that the AIs recognise and recommend.

It is not only about expanding your citations. It is about structuring your authority and identity — name, method, track record, results, expertise — in a way that language models can reliably understand who you are and why they should recommend you. That is what we call Presence Engineering for Generative AIs, applied to your positioning as a consultant.

Pillar 01

We monitor

We measure your G-SoV (Generative Share of Voice) with AI-Scan: how present your name is in the answers about your consulting topics, across several AI models.

Pillar 02

We structure

We build your knowledge graph and the nodes of your identity, so the AIs recognise you as a reliable entity and do not confuse you with namesakes or with the consultancies you once worked for.

Pillar 03

We clone

We extract your Linguistic DNA and vectorise your own method, so the AIs know what is yours and credit it to you.

Pillar 04

We propagate

We publish consistent, original semantic content across the authority channels of your sector, to influence the AIs where they are trained.

Frequently asked questions

Questions answered.

I am a consultant. How do I show up in the answers of generative AIs?

The first step is to measure. AI-Scan shows whether the AIs already cite your name in your consulting topics, in what position, and who they credit for your method. From there, we structure your entities in the knowledge graphs, so the models reliably recognise who you are; we extract your Linguistic DNA and vectorise your method, so what circulates about your work is credited to you; and we propagate original content across the channels the AIs are trained on. There is no shortcut and no space for sale: the AIs recommend whoever they can recognise.

How do I get the AI to recommend my consultancy instead of the big firms?

By structuring what the big firms often lack: a method with a name, an author and a trail. Language models recommend entities they can recognise and describe with confidence. An independent consultant with a well-structured proprietary method, named concepts and dense content published consistently is more recognisable to a model than a large brand with no clear authorship. Size helps human recall; semantic structure helps the AI’s answer.

Does this replace my LinkedIn, my site or my referral network?

No — presence in AIs complements what you already do. LinkedIn, your site and referrals remain decisive for the human audience. Presence Engineering takes care of a new, invisible channel: what the artificial intelligence answers when someone asks for a consultant on your topic.

How do I find out what my presence in AIs looks like today?

With our proprietary monitoring technology, AI-Scan. It is the audit that measures your G-SoV and shows how you appear in the answers about your topics, and where the gaps are. It is the starting point to understand your landscape and design the right strategy for your case.

How long until my name starts coming up when people ask for a consultant in my field?

It depends on the starting point, and it is not a button we switch on or off. AI-Scan gives you the immediate diagnosis; structuring your entities is usually the first noticeable change, because that is what stops the model from hesitating about who you are; and propagation moves your G-SoV over the following weeks, with continuous monitoring so you do not lose ground to another consultant in the same field.
