We saw search changing before most businesses did.
Recometric was born from years of SEO experience — and a growing realization that AI is quietly rewriting how businesses are discovered online.
Chapter 01 · The Early Days
Before AI, there was the search bar.
Long before ChatGPT entered the conversation, our founder Botond Balog was building SEOKLIKK — a full-stack SEO agency in Hungary helping local businesses grow through organic search, content strategy and authority building.
Years were spent in spreadsheets and SERPs. Auditing sites at 2am. Watching small businesses go from invisible to indispensable in their cities. Search was the gateway to discovery, and we knew how to open it.

Chapter 02 · The Shift
Then AI changed search.
ChatGPT didn’t just change how people typed questions. It changed how people decide. Customers started asking AI assistants for recommendations the way they once asked friends — and businesses started asking us a brand-new question:
Why are competitors appearing in AI answers?
Why isn’t AI recommending us?
Where did our traffic actually go?
The Problem
Most businesses are still optimizing for yesterday’s internet.
AI doesn’t rank pages. It makes judgments. It weighs what the open web says about you, how consistent your story is, and whether real humans seem to trust you. Traditional SEO alone isn’t enough anymore.

Optimizing for recommendation
- Trust
- Authority
- Consistency
- Reputation
- Recommendation signals
Chapter 03 · The Birth of Recometric
Recometric was built for the AI discovery era.
We took everything we’d learned about ranking, trust, authority and reputation — and rebuilt it for a world where the search results page is now an answer, not a list.
Recometric measures how AI systems describe, rank and recommend your business across ChatGPT, Gemini and Perplexity. Then it tells you exactly how to become more recommendable.

One score. Plain English. Action items you can actually do this week.
The future of search will be recommendation-driven.
AI assistants. Conversational discovery. Trust-based recommendation engines. The next decade of search won’t be about who ranks #1 — it will be about who gets named when an AI decides to recommend.
