I just ran 200 tests across 5 AI models. Asked ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Perplexity, and Grok 50 questions about a category of tool. 0 mentions. Not a single "oh yeah, there's this tool that does that." This is my baseline. Zero visibility. The goal: get to 10% in 90 days. Track it weekly. #buildinpublic

Just shipped our 2nd benchmark cycle. 32 AI SEO tools. 51 dimensions. 6 AI judges. 21K API calls. 12.1M tokens. Here's the thing: one cycle is just a snapshot. Two? That's when it gets interesting. Now I can track trends. See who moved up. Build statistical confidence over time. Weekly cycles. Because data from last quarter doesn't help your buying decision today.

Anthropic killed my AI access — both OpenClaw bots died, and my dev environment (Claude Code) went with them. Back from the dead. Using MiniMax instead — 90% cheaper. Wrote about it → jamiewatters.work/journey/cla… #openclaw #modeloptix #aicosts
