360 Visibility Proposal
We asked ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Gemini to recommend a surf sunglasses in Carlsbad. OTIS Eyewear didn't come up — not once. Here's what we found, why it matters, and exactly how to fix it.

Think about how you find a restaurant in a new city. You probably ask ChatGPT or Perplexity instead of scrolling through Google results. Your clients are doing the same thing when they need a surf sunglasses. The problem? When AI answers, it pulls from a specific set of signals — and right now, OTIS Eyewear isn't sending any of them.

The Evidence
We didn't guess — we tested. Every query a potential customer might actually ask about a surf sunglasses. Three major AI platforms. The results tell a clear story.

Mentioned in 2/5 queries — but only when OTIS was named in the question.
Mentioned in 2/5 queries — same pattern, only brand-name queries.
Mentioned in 2/5 queries — almost entirely invisible.
✓ Brand Queries — OTIS appears
See the pattern? OTIS only appears when someone already knows the name. For every prospect searching generically — and that's most of them — OTIS doesn't exist.
✗ Generic Queries — OTIS invisible
Appearance in 3 generic surf sunglasses queries
When prospects search without your name, they find these companies instead.
OTIS Eyewear appears in only 40% of AI responses — and only when someone already knows the name.
When AI platforms answer 'best sustainable sunglasses' or 'best surf sunglasses,' OTIS never appears. Oakley, Costa Del Mar, Maui Jim, Smith, and Dragon dominate these lists. OTIS only surfaces when users ask about it directly by name — meaning the brand captures zero category-level demand from AI-driven search.
The Shopify-based site lacks Organization, Product with AggregateRating, FAQ, and BreadcrumbList schema. AI platforms rely on structured data to form brand summaries. Without it, OTIS cannot feed LLMs accurate product facts, sustainability credentials, or competitive differentiators like mineral glass lenses.
OTIS's core competitive advantage — 100% mineral glass lenses, 12x more scratch-resistant than plastic, endlessly recyclable — is documented on a single page (mineral-glass-1) with no schema, no FAQ markup, and no citations. When users ask which brands use real glass lenses, AI cannot confidently cite OTIS.
OTIS has no Trustpilot page, no BBB listing, no Wikipedia article, and no Google Knowledge Panel. These are the primary trust nodes LLMs draw from when forming brand recommendations. Competitors like Maui Jim and Oakley have all four. OTIS's trust infrastructure exists only on Instagram (29K followers) and Amazon product pages.
The Deep Dive
We analyzed OTIS Eyewear's online visibility across 2 critical dimensions. Here's exactly where you stand — and why each score matters.
Below Average
AI visibility data not available.
Sub-Pillar Scores
Average
Technical SEO data not available.
Sub-Pillar Scores
LinkedIn and Crunchbase present. No Trustpilot, no BBB, no Wikipedia, no Google Knowledge Panel. Review coverage exists on Amazon and ExpertVoice but lacks aggregation.
Mineral glass page is substantive and well-written. Homepage and product pages lack FAQ, comparison content, and AI-digestible summaries. Journal/blog exists but lacks structured optimization.
Brand appears on Reddit (r/sunglasses), Amazon, ExpertVoice, surfd.com. No industry publication citations. No Clutch-equivalent for consumer eyewear. Perplexity citations lean toward otiseyewear.com itself.
LLMs that know OTIS describe it accurately — mineral glass, surf lifestyle, Australian origin, premium positioning. Hallucination risk is low. The 2010 founding date (ChatGPT) vs actual 2000 is a minor accuracy gap.
6 of 15 queries = 40% raw mention rate, but all 6 are direct brand queries. Discovery mention rate is 0%.
In queries where OTIS appears, it's referenced but rarely positioned as a top-3 recommendation. No 'best of' list placements found.
The good news? Every dimension above is fixable. See the 90-day roadmap →
