About

The people behind Found Clearly

Found Clearly is a small team that helps home service companies get found and chosen on Google, in Maps and in AI answers. We came to this work from different places. Volodymyr spent more than eight years in sales and team management at Grohe, Hilti and Coca-Cola HBC. Anastasiia has spent more than five years researching what helps local businesses rank. Denys has built websites, web apps and mobile apps for more than ten years, and built the software behind every report we send.

  • Remote team
  • US-wide

All three of us work across SEO and AI search, which the industry calls AEO, GEO or LLMO.

Anastasiia Semeniuk, Local SEO & AEO Specialist at Found Clearly

Anastasiia Semeniuk

Local SEO & AEO Specialist

Has spent more than five years researching what helps local businesses rank on Google. At Found Clearly, Anastasiia works on local SEO and answer engine optimization (AEO): the pages, profiles and answers that get a business found and named.

  • Local SEO
  • Answer engine optimization
  • SEO research
  • Content strategy

That mix is the point. When a homeowner asks an AI assistant who to call, the answer is built from your website, your Google Business Profile, your reviews and the sites that write about you. Getting into that answer takes a salesperson's ear for what buyers want, a researcher who knows what search rewards and an engineer who knows how the machines read it.

Found Clearly is a team of three. Denys takes every strategy call and leads every plan. Volodymyr researches what AI assistants say about each business we audit and runs the AI interviews with Denys, and Anastasiia works on local SEO and AEO. You deal with the people doing your work, not an account manager. Our research starts in Texas. We work with home service companies anywhere in the US.

Two interviews, then the work

First, we interview you. On the 45-minute kickoff call we ask about the jobs you want more of, the customers worth the drive, what you do better than anyone nearby, and what your best customers say about you.

Then we interview the AI assistants your customers use. We put your buyer questions to ChatGPT, Claude and Perplexity to see whether they name you and who they pick instead, then ask them what they know about your business and what they get wrong.

We repeat that interview every month. On Starter it's a basic session: we ask what the assistants know about you and fix the wrong facts at their source. On Growth and Leader we go further: we ask why they'd pick a competitor and what they get wrong about you, and answer their follow-up questions until we can see what they still don't know. Those plans also start with a message map in month 1: who you're for, why a customer should pick you, what proof is missing and how your home page should read.

The gap between those two interviews becomes your plan:

  • the competitors AI names instead of you, and what they show that you don't;
  • the jobs and pages to start with, from what you told us;
  • the fixes that let Google and AI read all of it, from your service pages and Google Business Profile to your listings and reviews.

Then we do the work month by month and show you what changed, measured the same way each time.

How we work

Evidence first.

Every finding comes with the page and the proof. Every outside number links to its source.

Fewer, better pages.

Built from your real jobs, not dozens of AI-written articles.

The work is guaranteed.

Your plan lists what we'll deliver. Every item except the as-needed ones has a credit value, and if we miss one, you don't pay for it.

Published prices.

You know what we cost before you talk to us.

Our promise

We do the work your plan lists every month and show you the proof. We tell you plainly what changed and what didn't. We never fake reviews or buy links.

Remote, and open to the whole US

We work remotely from Europe, with home service companies anywhere in the US. You pick a time for a call online in Calendly, and we meet on Zoom.

We don't have an office in the US, and we won't pretend to. You'll never see a fake local address, a made-up map listing or a city page with one town's name swapped for another from us. What we bring instead is evidence: dated AI answers, checked sources and published methods.

Found Clearly is operated by SELFOIA SRL, a company registered in Romania.

Our Texas research

What we won't do

Some tactics get quick attention and cost you later. We don't use them, for you or for ourselves.

  • No mass-produced AI articles or copy-paste city pages. We publish fewer pages, built from your real jobs and your customers' real questions.
  • No fake reviews, no review gating and no paid-for reviews. We ask every customer the same way, not only the happy ones, and never trade a discount for a review.
  • No fake posts, fake offices or fake profiles. Not on Reddit or Quora, not on Google Maps. When we take part in a discussion, we say who we are.
  • No bought links, no parasite pages and no paid "best of" spots. That includes self-ranked "best agency" lists. Google's spam policies cover all of these.
  • No charging for work we miss. Every item in your plan, except the as-needed ones, has a credit value. If we miss one, its credit comes off your next invoice, or, if it was your last month, we refund it.
  • No hidden prices and no fake urgency. Every plan price is on our pricing page.

Talk to Denys before you decide
