The GIE framework explains why these engines are becoming the next layer of commerce and decision making, and why search-era metrics stop working. - [AI Visibility Index (AIVI)](https://gokulmohanty.com/aivi/): A score from 0 to 100 for how present an entity is inside generative AI answers: whether it is named, where in the answer, how often, and in what role, measured across fixed prompt sets and multiple engines. Invented by Gokul Mohanty in 2025. - [AI Reputation Score (AIRS)](https://gokulmohanty.com/airs/): A score for how an AI engine portrays an entity once it appears: the sentiment of the answer, the authority of the sources it cites, and how consistent the claims are across prompts and model versions. Invented by Gokul Mohanty in 2025. - [Distributed Authority Domain Placement (DADP)](https://gokulmohanty.com/dadp/): Gokul Mohanty's framework showing that generative engines trust authority distributed across many independent domains over a single optimized website, and how to build that distribution with true, sourced information. ## Companies - [Nezz](https://nezzapp.com): Bank and banking infrastructure for high-value transfers, with instant, bank-verified settlement. - [Nightingale](https://nightingalesolution.com): Checks and cleans clinical trial data at the source, with an audit trail on every value. - [CTRL Reality](https://ctrlreality.ai): Measures and engineers how AI models answer when buyers ask for the best in a category. - [FaceCard](https://www.facecard.tech): Scan your skin, build a personalized routine, and track visible changes. - [CRSH Market](https://app.crshmarket.com): Livestreams you can predict on. - [Platina Data AI](https://platinadata.ai): Data is the key differentiator in the AI race. - [Study Share](https://studyshare.app): AI-powered SAT, ACT and PSAT prep, with practice tests and an AI tutor. - [Cryo Labs](https://cryolabs.io): Research-use-only peptide compounds, with a certificate of analysis for every lot. - [Neptune](https://neptune.rent): Apartment hunting made effortless, with an AI agent that searches for you. - [Kupid Dating](https://kupiddating.com): A live college dating show. - [Refundly](https://refundly.app): Tracks and manages your shopping returns in one app. - [AYA](https://ayaguide.ai): Your personal consciousness OS. - [Plots](https://plots.events): Discover events worth remembering. - [Rooted Living](https://rootedliving.shop): Vegan, eco-friendly snacks in compostable packaging. - [EM Consulting](https://emconsultancygroup.com): Premium flights, typically 30 to 40% below published retail. - [VivaMed](https://vivamedinc.com): Minimally invasive nerve stimulation for obstructive sleep apnea. - Alt Realm (Co-founder): Data company, provenance record and AI lab. - [VScale](https://www.instagram.com/vesperscale/) (Founder): PR and media visibility for founders.
