Recommended Actions

!

Remediate the ChatGPT ranking collapse for 'best reviewed' queries.

Ranking at #21-25 on the world's most-used AI platform for high-intent buyer queries is a major revenue leak to competitors like Zendesk and Ada.

Impact: High
!

Develop and index 'Enterprise CX' specific technical whitepapers focused on Claude.

Claude has the highest mention rate (92%) but mixed sentiment; targeted technical content can flip this to 'positive' and improve reach with the Enterprise persona.

Impact: High
~

Create a 'Legacy Modernization' content hub targeting the 50% of decision-makers Intercom is currently missing.

Data shows Intercom is winning 'Modernization' queries but only reaching half of the 'Legacy Support' persona, indicating a content gap in enterprise-level migration paths.

Impact: Medium
~

Aggressively target the 'Agent Productivity' query space in ChatGPT.

Current rankings in ChatGPT for agent productivity are poor (#8-14), whereas Gemini and Claude see Intercom as a leader (#2-3).
