How it works.
Three things to check before you pay for them.
“Guaranteed #1 on ChatGPT”
The same list repeats less than 1% of the time. No one can guarantee a position. We measure how often you are named and work to raise it.

Shared leads as marketing
A $40 to $120 lead goes to up to four roofers, who all call the same homeowner. Each lead is spent on that one call.

From the blog.
Questions roofers ask us.
Do you guarantee I'll show up in ChatGPT?
No. The answers change almost every time, so we measure how often you're named out of 96 answers (12 × 4 × 2), fix what the models read, and measure again on day 45.
Who touches my website?
Our team, with your approval for each change. If your site is on a platform we can't edit, we tell you at the kickoff and refund you.
Does this replace Google Ads or Angi?
No. It adds the channel where the homeowner hasn't called anyone yet. The day-45 report tells you if it's working.
Who are you?
ontheshortlist.ai is a product of Cupperlab, operated by PDMI SL, Madrid. We measure through the official APIs of OpenAI, Google, Anthropic and Perplexity. None of them endorses this service.
