Hi, I'm Timothy. I checked how buyers find Glow on Google and in AI tools like ChatGPT.

And I'm Ehil. I read the numbers. Here are the ones that matter.

Google

12,700

searches a month for tools like yours. You are not on Google's first page for any of them.

AI answers

1 in 4

AI answers mention Glow. Microsoft Defender for Endpoint, the competitor AI mentions most, gets mentioned more often.

Links

109x

as many sites link to CrowdStrike, the competitor AI mentions most whose links we can compare, as to you.

What it is worth

$277,000

a year: what you would pay for Google ads to get these visits. On Google's first page, you get them for free.

Timothy

I made this audit from your website alone. With your real data, like Google Search Console and your analytics, I can show you much more.

Glow vs your competitors.

Ehil

Three ways to compare: how often AI mentions you, how many sites link to you, and authority. Glow comes last on 2 of the 3.

Microsoft Defender for Endpoint is part of a whole platform (microsoft.com), so its link numbers are left out. Authority is a DataForSEO estimate from link data, not a Google number.

AI tools rarely mention Glow.

Ehil

We asked 6 AI tools 50 questions that your buyers ask. Glow came up in 68 of 294 answers.

Ehil

When buyers do not know your name, AI mentions you in only 1 of 100 answers.

Timothy

On 31 out of 50 questions, no AI tool mentions Glow at all.

One dot per AI tool, in the order above. A filled dot means that tool mentioned Glow: it named you or linked to your site. The number under each tool counts the questions it mentioned you in. AI answers change every day; these are from Oct 16, 2026.

On Google, buyers find other sites first.

Ehil

Every month, 12,700 people search for tools like yours. Glow is not on Google's first page for any of these searches.

Ehil

Your name is a common word. On Oct 20, Google showed a TV show and dictionaries when people searched for "glow". You do not need to win a common word. Buyers type "glow security" or "glow io". For those, Google shows you first.

Cost per click: what one visit costs as a top Google ad. Difficulty: 0 to 100, lower is easier to win. Competitor ranking: the highest-placed of your competitors in Google's top 10 for that search, and its place (checked Oct 20, 2026).

Your homepage is slow on phones.

Ehil

On a phone, your homepage needs 10.5 seconds to show. Google wants 2.5 seconds or less. Slow pages lose buyers and can rank lower.

Timothy

AI agents are bots that look things up and buy tools for people. Your site fails 5 of 11 must-have checks for them. When an agent cannot use your site, it can pick a competitor instead.

What blocks AI agents on your site
glow.io66 / 100

The 5 must-have checks you fail:

  • When a page does not exist, your site does not give agents a plain-text message about it.
  • There is no public guide to your API, so agents cannot learn how to use your product.
  • Your site does not say what an agent may and may not do with a customer's account.
  • Your MCP server says it shares resources with agents, but it lists none.
  • Agents cannot ask your site for a plain-text version of a page.

My job is to put you on that first page. Then that money stays with you.

Here is my plan for Glow.

Ehil

Timothy builds every page from your own knowledge. So it sounds like you, not like AI.

Timothy's most urgent jobs
  • Write clear answers to the 31 buyer questions where AI mentions others, not Glow.
  • Get Glow listed on the sites that list your competitors.
  • Make your homepage load fast on phones.

Let Timothy put Glow in front of its buyers.
