Founder, Searchly
Piotr Wasiluk is the founder of Searchly and an expert in answer engine optimization (AEO) and AI search: the work of getting a brand mentioned and cited when people ask ChatGPT, Google AI Overviews or Perplexity.
He did this work at an agency. Searchly now brings that work to other brands and agencies as software: it tracks the buyer questions they choose and shows the answers and sources behind each result, then turns the gaps into next steps.
