Recommended Actions

Execute a platform-specific SEO strategy targeting OpenAI and Anthropic's training sources.

With 0% visibility on ChatGPT and Claude, 88 Acres is invisible to a massive segment of AI users; the brand must secure mentions in high-authority culinary and health publications that these models prioritize.

Impact: High

Optimize product descriptions to specifically target 'Seed-Based Protein' and 'Whey-Free Performance' keywords.

Data shows 88 Acres is frequently 'NOT MENTIONED' in high-protein queries; repositioning seeds as a performance fuel will capture the 'Plant-Based Fitness' persona.

Impact: High

Develop 'Head-to-Head' comparison content against MadeGood and Enjoy Life Foods.

AI models rely on comparative data to rank brands; by creating content that highlights 88 Acres' unique advantages over these market leaders, the brand can siphon their visibility.

Impact: Medium

Implement Schema.org markup for allergen-specific certifications on all product pages.

Gemini and AI Overviews heavily utilize structured data to categorize products; formalizing the 'nut-free' and 'soy-free' status in code will cement the brand's #1 position in school-safe queries.
