Managing Director at Better Brain Lab LLC
I'm the founder of HarperFlow, a content engine that runs company blogs on autopilot — engineered to get businesses cited by AI assistants like ChatGPT and Perplexity, not just ranked on Google. I built its 100+ node research-and-verification pipeline myself, and I run it on my own business in public. I comment from data, not takes. I recently completed an original study of AI recommendations — 39 real buyer questions across ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Gemini, 117 answers analyzed. A few findings reporters have found useful: AI names specific companies in ~98% of commercial answers; the three engines agree on their picks only ~56% of the time; Perplexity's most-cited source is Reddit; and only ~31% of the pages AI cites contain any original data. I'm glad to comment on AI search and GEO, the shift away from traditional SEO, content marketing economics, and marketing automation. I give direct, quotable answers with numbers behind them — and I'll say so plainly when the data doesn't support a claim. Full dataset available to journalists on request.
