Core & More Technologies Launches GlobalSphere™ AI Authority Index – First Brand Visibility Audit for AI-Driven Search Era
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
NEW YORK, NY February 26, 2026 – Core & More Technologies, a U.S.-based digital marketing agency trusted by enterprise brands including BlackBerry, Infinera, and Genasys, today launched the GlobalSphere™ AI Authority Index, the first comprehensive audit framework measuring how brands are understood, trusted, and surfaced across AI-powered search platforms including Google AI Mode, ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, and Microsoft Copilot.
As AI agents now influence 33% of organic discovery – and growing – traditional search rankings no longer guarantee visibility. The GlobalSphere™ AI Authority Index addresses a critical gap: brands don’t know if AI systems understand who they are, what they do, or whether they can be trusted.
The Uncomfortable Truth About Modern Search Visibility
“We’re seeing a troubling pattern across mid-market and enterprise clients,” said Andrew Young, CEO of Core & More Technologies. “Brands with strong traditional SEO rankings and quality offerings are being bypassed by AI recommendations – not because they’re inferior, but because AI systems can’t clearly interpret their authority signals. Most CMOs have no idea it’s happening. You’re no longer winning over one person at a time. You have to inform AI systems that decide at scale, who in turn reward brands they can confidently interpret. If your competitor is structured better for AI not just through their website but out across the web, they’re winning recommendations right now.”
The GlobalSphere™ AI Authority Index solves this by providing brands with an AI Authority Score – a quantified measure of how clearly AI systems understand and recommend their brand – plus a prioritized remediation roadmap.
How the Index Works
The audit framework evaluates brands across five critical dimensions that determine AI recommendation behavior:
Entity Clarity Assessment: Can AI systems correctly identify who you are, what you do, and your market position?
Structured Data Validation: Are your schema signals strong enough for AI platforms to interpret your content accurately?
AI Visibility Diagnostics: How consistently does your brand appear across Google AI Mode, ChatGPT, Gemini, and other platforms?
Content Interpretation Review: Does AI understand your offerings the way you intend, or is it misinterpreting your expertise?
Competitive Authority Context: Where do AI systems rank your authority relative to competitors when making recommendations?
“This isn’t traditional SEO,” said Young. “Automated tools can measure individual factors, but they can’t tell you why AI ignores you or how to fix it. Our experts manually connect the signals AI uses to evaluate trust and authority – then build a roadmap that competitors can’t reverse-engineer. When we say SEO, remember that what we are now talking about is Search Everywhere Optimization, and if you are still using the pre-2026 playbook, you may never catch up.”
Three Tiers Built for Different Growth Stages
The GlobalSphere™ AI Authority Index is available in three levels:
Foundation Index ($3,500): For $1M–$5M revenue businesses exploring AI visibility for the first time. Baseline AI Authority Score plus high-impact fixes. Delivered in 7-10 business days.
Growth Index ($6,500): For $5M–$25M revenue brands ready to outperform competitors. Deeper analysis, competitive context, and detailed execution roadmap. Delivered in 14-21 business days.
Enterprise Index ($10,000+): For $25M+ revenue organizations defending market position. Full platform coverage, competitive gap modeling, and execution-ready implementation plan. Delivered in 21-35 business days.
All audits include a client-ready professional report, AI Authority Score, and strategy review walkthrough.
“Here’s the reality,” Young added. “Your competitor with inferior technology but stronger AI signals is being recommended by ChatGPT and Google AI Mode right now – while you’re invisible despite better traditional rankings. That gap compounds daily. The brands that act now will dominate AI search for years. The ones that wait will be permanently playing catch-up.”
Who This Is Built For
The Index is designed for brands experiencing organic traffic decline despite “good SEO,” competing in categories where AI summaries influence buying decisions, or needing clarity before investing further in content and paid media. Early adopters include B2B technology companies, professional services firms, home services businesses, and enterprise brands in competitive markets. You can see more about how AI engines have become the front-door to discovery in their Q2 2025 video newsletter. These shifts are not new, and now is the time to execute if you want to future-proof your business.
