Hudson & Nine

How AI search engines see you — month by month
Baseline, 2026-06-17
How to read this report. AI answers are probabilistic, not fixed rankings. The same question can return different companies, in a different order, for different people and at different times — so nothing here means you will (or a competitor will) appear in a set position every time. These are neutral, un-personalized queries, run once, as a representative snapshot of how AI tends to answer today. Treat it as a directional baseline, not a guaranteed leaderboard.

The headline

We asked the AI platforms your 40 approved questions and measured how often Hudson & Nine appears in the answers. This is your starting line.

Tested across ChatGPT, Google Gemini, and Google AI Overviews — 40 queries × 3 platforms = 120 checks.

What this tells us

  • Gemini already knows you well (48%). Google's AI surfaces Hudson & Nine across design, nonprofit, and holiday queries — your site reads clearly to it.
  • ChatGPT barely surfaces you (5%). It names you almost only for direct “Hudson & Nine” searches, and recommends competitors for category searches like “corporate event production NYC.” This is the single biggest opportunity.
  • You’re strongest in nonprofit & brand validation, and weak in core corporate production. AI currently files you as a gala company more than a corporate one. Closing that gap is the central goal of the work ahead.

How to read this. AI results vary by user, location, and history; these are neutral, un-personalized baseline queries. Perplexity and Bing Copilot weren’t included in this run. This is the pre-work measurement — we re-run the identical 40 queries about 30 days after the work is live to show the change.

The headline

We asked the AI platforms your 40 approved questions and measured how often Hudson & Nine appears in the answers. Here’s where you stand this month.

20%
of AI answers across your 40 queries now mention Hudson & Nine — about level with the 23% June baseline. The on-site content upgrades that target the gaps aren’t published yet, so treat Month 2 as a holding checkpoint.

Google AI Overview
5 of 40 queries

Tested across ChatGPT, Gemini, and Google AI Overview — 40 queries × 3 platforms = 120 checks.

What this tells us

  • Gemini is still your strongest platform (40%, 16 of 40). It surfaces you most in design-forward, nonprofit, and brand-validation questions. It dipped from 48% in June, but that few-point move is normal month-to-month variance for probabilistic AI answers — not a real decline.
  • ChatGPT rarely surfaces you (8%, 3 of 40) — the biggest opportunity. Every one of those three hits is a question that already names Hudson & Nine or asks about nonprofit galas. For broad, unbranded discovery (“corporate event production NYC”), ChatGPT doesn’t mention you at all yet.
  • You win on name and craft, not on discovery. Strongest in Brand Validation (2/2) and Design & Storytelling (4/5); nearly invisible in core Corporate Event Production (1 of 12) — your highest-volume, highest-value category. Closing that gap is exactly what the homepage and service-page rewrites are built to do.

How to read this. AI results vary by user, location, and history; these are neutral, un-personalized baseline queries. Perplexity and Claude weren’t included in this run. We re-run this identical query set monthly to track the trend.
Jun 2026 → Jul 2026 · month over month
How to read the trend. Every month runs the identical 40-query set across the same three AI platforms, so the numbers are directly comparable. AI answers are probabilistic — a few points of movement in either direction is normal noise, not a real gain or loss. Watch the direction over several months, not any single step.
