0:41Here's today's host of the Voices of Search podcast, Tyson Stockton. My name is Tyson, and joining me today is Alex German, co-founder and CEO at Bluefish AI. Which information source do you think will become more important in AI search over the next year? Brand data. And what I mean by that is like actual data that is made for large language models that is structured, is syndicated, and is done so in a sophisticated, measured way. Time for a one minute break to hear from our sponsor, Previsible. So you're looking for SEO help and you got a couple of options. You could start replying to spam from agencies that claim they can get you to rank number one on Google.
1:27You can pay an hourly rate for a consultant who will inevitably nickel and dime you with hourly charges. Or you can work with a cookie cutter agency to quickly launch a strategy-less project with low success rate. None of those sound very good, now do they? Well, that's where Previsible's integrated consulting model comes in. Previsible draws from a collective 40 years of SEO and digital marketing experience to unlock your organic growth opportunities.

Brand data will define AI search visibility next year. Alex Sherman, co-founder and CEO of Bluefish AI, previously built and sold PromoteIQ to Microsoft before turning to AI-driven discovery infrastructure. He breaks down what structured, syndicated brand data built specifically for large language models looks like in practice, and why the agentic customer journey demands a new data toolkit heading into the holiday season. The discussion centers on why brand data is poised to become a more powerful lever for AI visibility than it was through 2025.
