What is the free scan?

You describe what's eating your week. Seismomedia emails back a written diagnosis within 48 hours: what to automate, what to skip, rough effort, rough cost. No call. No pitch. If there's nothing worth building, we say so. About 1 in 3 scans end that way.

What is the Front Desk Agent?

The Front Desk Agent is a custom voice and text agent (also known as an AI receptionist) for service businesses.

Lives on the business's own number. Live in 5 business days. $2,500 setup + $297/month.

What is the SEO Agent and how is it different from traditional SEO?

The SEO Agent is AI SEO software that monitors rankings on Google AND visibility in ChatGPT, Claude, and Perplexity. Most traditional SEO tools only optimize for Google. The SEO Agent fixes technical SEO issues, ships optimized content every week, and tracks AI search citations. Productized, month to month, cancel anytime.
