Oakpool Launches a New Tool for AI Search Visibility

In this article, you’ll discover:

• Why Oakpool created a new platform specifically for AI search.
• How consumer habits are shifting rapidly away from Google.
• Where to get a free report on your brand’s visibility today.

Think about the last time you looked for an answer online. Did you use Google, or did you ask ChatGPT? If you are like a lot of people these days, you might have gone straight to the AI. This shift is happening fast, and businesses need to know if they are showing up when people ask those questions. That is exactly why Oakpool just launched a new platform called Oakpool.ai.

Keeping Up with AI

The team at Oakpool, a digital agency known for helping brands grow, realized something big was changing. They noticed that standard SEO wasn’t enough anymore. Now, companies need to think about AI Search.

Oakpool.ai is a dedicated platform designed to help marketing leaders see how their brands appear inside today’s top engines. This includes ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, and Perplexity. It acts like a report card, showing brands exactly where they stand in this new world.

“At this point, it’s clear that AI Search will change the digital marketing landscape forever,” said James Hamilton, the co-founder of Oakpool. He noted that the brands that win over the next 20 years will be the ones that adjust to this reality today.

How We Search is Changing

The numbers back this up. A recent study found that 77% of people who use ChatGPT now treat it just like a search engine. Even more surprising is that 28% of Gen Z actually start their searches on ChatGPT before they even think about Google.

This means trust and discovery are forming in new places. It is not just about having a website anymore. It is about narrative clarity and what the AI has “learned” about your product. Oakpool.ai offers a free tool to help businesses get a baseline read on their presence across these platforms.

Real People, Real Solutions

One thing that makes Oakpool feel different is its roots. It is founder-owned and employee-owned. The name “Oakpool” actually comes from a quiet stretch of water on a river in New Jersey. The founders, Alex Ford and James Hamilton, decided to go into business together after an evening of fly fishing there.

That personal connection drives their work. They have helped clients ranging from outdoor brands like GORE-TEX to cultural icons like the MIT Sloan School of Management. Now, they are bringing that same care to AI visibility.

The new tool is available starting today. It gives brands a chance to peek under the hood and see what the AI really thinks of them.
