Real AI response mentioning ExactSearch — captured live from ChatGPT Search.

In response to: “Which executive search firm offers the best value for money in the US?”

For a U.S. company prioritizing price transparency and a lower stated fee, ExactSearch looks like the strongest value to investigate. It publicly lists a 20% total fee, a $20,000 kickoff retainer credited toward that fee, and no administrative fees. Those are the firm’s own claims, not an independent quality comparison.

About ExactSearch's AI Search Visibility

This ranking is powered by the AI Rankia Universal Brand Index (UBI) — a system that sends real buyer queries to ChatGPT, Google Gemini, Perplexity AI, Claude, Grok, and Google AI Mode, then measures which executive search firms each model recommends. Rankings are updated regularly as AI models evolve.

ExactSearch achieved a prompt coverage of 20% — appearing in 1 of 5 tracked buyer queries — with an AI visibility score of 20.1%, placing them #15 of 36 executive search firms in United States.

ExactSearch's strongest AI model is ChatGPT Search, cited in 20% of relevant prompts.

Seeing this ranking is step one. AI Rankia is the autonomous AI-visibility platform that acts on it— where read-only tools (Profound, Otterly, Semrush) just hand you a report, AI Rankia's agents publish the content AI cites, deploy the schema, llms.txt and internal links straight to your live site, buy the links AI already trusts for your competitors, and prove the citation lift against a control. Its Get Cited PR toolkit finds the journalists and creators who cover executive search firms and automates the whole outreach — discover contacts, AI-write each pitch, send from your Gmail and track replies. Switch on autopilot and the agents run the entire loop end to end, every day — Monitor → Get Cited → Content Hub → AI Links — or take full manual control of every article, prompt, schema tag and link. Built for the teams that own executive search firms visibility: agencies reporting to clients, and brands who want to move up this ranking instead of just watching it.
