You can publish 100 articles
and still be a stranger to AI.
Right now, your buyers are asking AI "who's the best expert in this?" and getting answers. Wikipedia gets named. Substack writers get named. A consultant with three years of experience gets named. You don't. Twenty years of real expertise. Still missing from the list.
That seat is open. The Authority Blueprint Sprint is six weeks of done-for-you foundation work that puts you in it. Real deliverables. Not a strategy doc.
AI sees you six different ways.
So it sees no one.
Your name on LinkedIn. Your bio on the firm website. Your handle on Twitter. The credit on the podcast you guest-hosted. The author byline on that Forbes piece. The signature on your last newsletter.
Each one is slightly different. AI reads them as different people. None of them accumulates authority. Six people with weak signals. Instead of one person with twenty years of compounding expertise.
→ Fix the foundation, every mention from that point forward stacks into the same signal.
Same expertise. Two different futures.
Take a 25-year B2B SaaS strategist. Real expertise, real client outcomes, real referrals. A year from now, a buyer asks AI "who's the top B2B SaaS strategy advisor for growth-stage companies?" Here's what decides whether his name is in the answer.
- × Name shows up six different ways across LinkedIn, the firm site, podcasts, guest bylines. AI sees six people, not one.
- × No named methodology. Describes himself as "experienced SaaS strategist." Too abstract for AI to classify.
- × Every post is on a different topic. Pricing one week, retention the next, GTM motion the week after. Nothing to be the answer for.
- × No published research. 25 years of client work, none of it documented as primary-source data.
- × No baseline measured. No proof anything he's doing moves AI visibility, because nothing was tracked.
- ● One canonical name, every surface. AI consolidates every mention into one entity.
- ● Named methodology with its own page. "The SaaS Operating Model." A category AI can place him in.
- ● Three sharp expertise topics repeated across every surface until AI knows he owns them.
- ● Original research published. A benchmark study from his last 20 client engagements, with numbers, citable as primary source.
- ● Two pillar guides deployed, structured for AI extraction. Schema-marked. AI-readable.
Same Marcus. Same 25 years. The difference is whether the foundation is built before the next post goes out, or after another year of fragmented signals trains AI to keep ignoring him.
One product family.
Three commitment levels.
Each step builds on the last. The Sprint is the middle path. More than a diagnostic, less than the full 90-day program. You own real deliverables at week 6 and decide from there.
48-hour automated diagnostic. Shows where your AI visibility breaks. Self-serve. No call required.
6 weeks. Done-for-you. Built-in week-1 audit + four foundation phases. Real deliverables, not a plan.
90 days. Foundation plus amplification. Sprint buyers extend at $12K to $15K within 60 days.
Week-by-week.
What happens. What you get.
The first week is a built-in diagnostic. Same audit work that costs $4,500 standalone, included in the Sprint. Weeks 2 through 6 execute the four foundation phases. Each phase produces concrete artifacts you own. No discovery sessions extending into months. Execution.
Built-in audit. We map every indexed surface where your identity appears. Score the failure patterns. Document what AI currently sees when buyers query your category. This is your baseline. The brief that informs every phase that follows.
→ You receive: AI visibility baseline report, surface inventory, fragmentation score
One canonical bio in three lengths. A controlled vocabulary of 10 core terms. Every indexed surface reviewed and reconciled. By week 2 close, AI describes you consistently across surfaces.
→ You receive: Bios (50/150/300 words), vocabulary doc, surface consistency audit
We name and structure your methodology. Not a buzzword, a system. Define stages. Document outcomes. Build the framework page on your site with schema markup. Once named, the framework appears everywhere and AI begins reinforcing your category ownership.
→ You receive: Named framework, framework page on your site, deployment language
One original data asset that makes you a primary source. Documented client analysis, benchmark study, or buyer survey. Must have numbers. Must be published. Must cite you as the source. Even a focused data asset changes how AI weighs your expertise permanently.
→ You receive: Published research asset, hosted on your site, citable
Two pillar guides, 2,000 to 3,500 words each. One on your category, one on your methodology. Structured for AI extraction. Direct-answer paragraphs, schema markup, internal linking. This is the training-ready content AI needs to cite you when it recommends experts.
→ You receive: Two pillar guides, deployed and schema-marked, before week 6 close
Your time commitment: 2 to 3 hours per week. Mostly deliverable review and a kickoff interview. We do the work. You provide expertise and approve output.
When the Sprint is enough.
When you need the full program.
The Sprint builds the foundation. The FVE builds the foundation and scales it through site rebuild, content system, offer architecture, and outreach. Most founders will know within the first 30 days of the Sprint which one they actually need.
- Built-in audit (week 1)
- Identity consolidation
- Framework naming + page build
- One original research asset
- Two pillar guides
- Real deliverables, not a plan
- Decide on amplification at week 6
- Everything in Sprint, plus:
- Site rebuilt as entity document
- 12-month content system + briefs
- Offer architecture rebuild
- Outreach engine: 5 to 10 placements
- Wikidata entity creation
- Three measurement cycles
Sprint buyers can upgrade. If you finish the Sprint and want amplification, you can extend into Phases 5 through 8 of FVE for $12,000 to $15,000 within 60 days of Sprint completion. Total path through Sprint plus Upgrade: $27K to $30K. Slightly more than buying FVE directly. The Sprint is the right call when you want to test before committing. Not when you already know you want the full program.
$15,000.
Three payments. Six weeks.
Fixed price for the 6-week engagement. Not variable. Not scoped per founder. Same price for every Sprint client.
First payment at kickoff. Second at framework deployment (week 3). Third at sprint completion (week 6). No long-term commitment.
Audit included. Week 1 diagnostic is built into the Sprint. No separate $4,500 Algorithmic Authority Audit purchase required. You go directly from sign-up to execution.
Six founders per quarter.
Diagnostic call first.
Sprint enrollment follows a 30-minute call to confirm fit. Most Sprints kick off within 10 days of the call. You'll hear back within 48 hours of submitting.

A year from now, AI will answer that buyer's question.
The only question is whether your name is in it.
AI is shaping your buyer's shortlist right now. Six weeks of foundation work decides whether you're in the answer or not. The window is not closing slowly.
