AI Perception

Summary

Verb Energy has successfully established itself as a primary productivity solution for high-performing tech professionals on Claude and Gemini, yet it remains a ghost brand within Google’s AI Overviews. While the brand commands dominant #1 rankings for niche 'afternoon slump' and 'desk snack' queries, it is currently ceding the broader 'clean energy bar' and 'healthy travel snack' markets to legacy incumbents like RXBAR and Larabar.

Value Proposition

Delicious, pocket-sized energy bars with espresso-level caffeine from Organic Green Tea, providing clean, sustained energy without the crash or jitters of traditional caffeinated products.

Overview

Mission

To provide healthier, more convenient energy options that help people be their best selves without compromising on taste or relying on sugar-laden alternatives.

Recommended Actions

Execute a technical SEO and schema overhaul specifically for AI Overviews visibility.

With 0% visibility in AI Overviews despite 50% on Claude/Gemini, the brand is likely being filtered out due to a lack of structured data or authoritative third-party 'Best of' list mentions that Google's engine prioritizes.

Impact: High

Pivot content strategy to target the 'Wellness Content Creator' persona.

At only 10% visibility for this persona, Verb is losing the cultural health-conscious conversation to GoMacro and Erewhon; shifting messaging toward 'clean ingredients' rather than just 'caffeine' is required.

Impact: High

Aggressively target 'travel' and 'on-the-go' keyword clusters in blog and PR efforts.

Verb was not mentioned in 10-hour flight or general travel queries, which are high-intent search areas currently dominated by Larabar and RXBAR.

Impact: Medium

Develop comparative content highlighting Verb vs. traditional protein bars.

RXBAR is the clear visibility leader (26 mentions); creating content that compares 'clean energy' to 'heavy protein' will help Verb steal share in general snack queries.

Impact: Medium
