Vendor Shortlist Builder

先生成 AI SEO vendor shortlist,再买软件、agency 或 consultant。

这个工具把采购判断拆成可比较的权重:URL diagnosis、AI-search readiness、competitor context、proof assets、reporting、CRM handoff、pricing 和 no-guarantee boundary。适合 founder、marketing lead、agency buyer 和 procurement 在签约前统一标准。

Shortlist inputs

Score interpretation

0-9: not enough evidence to buy. Ask for a smaller diagnostic or sample report.

10-15: viable pilot candidate if boundaries, reporting, and CRM handoff are clear.

16-21: strong shortlist candidate. Still verify claims, owners, and no-guarantee language.

What to shortlist

  • Vendors that inspect one real URL before prescribing content volume or long retainers.
  • Workflows that turn AI-search prompts, competitor gaps, proof assets, and page fixes into a 7-day plan.
  • Teams that can show reporting and CRM handoff without claiming guaranteed rankings, citations, leads, or ROI.

What to hold

  • Any vendor that guarantees ChatGPT mentions, AI citations, rankings, traffic, leads, revenue, or ad ROI.
  • Any proposal that skips ownership, evidence, tracking URLs, lead handoff, and follow-up responsibility.
  • Any paid-media plan that does not show break-even CPA/CPC assumptions before spend.

Boundary
