Why we built this

AI Search News was born out of frustration.

When we launched Rank4AI we had something genuinely interesting to say about how AI search was changing visibility for UK businesses. We pitched press. We reached out to publications. We got nothing back. The ones that did respond wanted thousands of pounds for coverage.

We were not alone. We kept meeting founders, CEOs and industry voices with real insight and no platform to share it from.

So we built one.

AI Search News is a free publication covering how AI search is reshaping industries across the UK. We publish research, stats, opinion and industry intelligence, and give industry voices a platform to be heard without a price tag attached.

There is something else worth saying too. AI search and AI SEO do not just find you because you have a good website. Tools like ChatGPT, Claude, Google AI Overviews, Gemini, Perplexity and Copilot build trust through what others say about you across the web. The more credible places your name and expertise appear, the more likely AI is to surface you and recommend you. That kind of presence used to be reserved for businesses with big budgets, big PR agencies or existing media relationships. Everyone else got left behind.

AI Search News exists to change that. Every piece you contribute, every quote you give, every article that features your name is building the kind of presence that AI search actually responds to.

How we publish

Every article on AI Search News sits in one of three formats.

The Index is our intelligence layer. Stats, data, trends, market shifts and updates that tell us something real about how AI search is reshaping an industry. Some pieces include a comment from an industry figure. Some stand alone. If it tells us something worth knowing, it belongs here.

The Briefing is short and to the point. Something is happening in AI search that an industry needs to know about right now. No fluff, just the point.

Guest Opinion is written entirely by an industry figure in their own voice. If you have something worth saying about AI search and your sector, we want to hear from you. Adam Parker adds a short editorial introduction to every guest piece.

Get involved

We reach out to industry figures regularly for comment and contribution. But if you have seen something, have a stat worth sharing, want to write something or just want to be kept in the loop, come to us.

For now this is completely free. If the costs of running it ever require us to change that, we will be transparent about it.
