SearchSeal is Live

Track what AI platforms say about your brand. Launching today so I can spend Valentine's Day with my wife tomorrow.

SearchSeal is live.

It tracks your brand's visibility across AI platforms. When someone asks ChatGPT or Gemini for a recommendation in your category, do you show up? Or does your competitor?

You get daily monitoring across ChatGPT and Gemini and Claude and Perplexity and Grok and DeepSeek. Sentiment tracking and competitor comparison, all in one dashboard.

Think SEMrush for AI search.

Why this matters

ChatGPT has 800 million weekly active users. People aren't just Googling anymore. They're asking AI for recommendations and going with whatever it says.

Most companies have spent years optimizing for Google but have no idea what ChatGPT tells people about them. Your competitor might be getting recommended while you're invisible.

Now you can find out.

Who's behind this

I'm a solo builder based in Jakarta. This is my first public launch.

Before this, I was a consultant. Spent years making slides for a living. Got tired of convincing people things were good ideas and wanted to actually build something instead.

So now instead of tweaking PowerPoint animations at midnight, I'm debugging code at midnight. Huge improvement. Definitely no regrets. My sleep schedule is completely normal.

SearchSeal is my first real product. We'll see if building is actually better than advising or if I just traded one type of suffering for another.

Why today

Tomorrow is Valentine's Day and I want to spend it with my wife.

I've spent every weekend for the past two months building this. She's been more patient than I deserved. Launching today means I can close the laptop tomorrow without guilt.

Also, yes, it's Friday the 13th. I built a tool that replaces guesswork with data. Launching on a day people avoid because of superstition felt right.

The honest state of things

Zero paying customers as of this morning. I don't know if the pricing is right or if the features I prioritized are what people actually want.

What I do know: I benchmarked every competitor I could find. As of February 2026, SearchSeal is the cheapest and the most feature-loaded in the category. Whether that matters to anyone other than me, I'm about to find out.

That's why I'm launching. I could keep polishing for another three months or I could put it out there and learn from real feedback.

Try it

14-day free trial, no credit card required.

If you want to skip the trial and go straight in, use code PLSNOBUGS for 50% off your first 3 months. The code is both a discount and a prayer.

If you try it, tell me what's broken and what's confusing and what's missing.

If you find it useful and wouldn't mind leaving a short review I could feature on the site, that would mean a lot. First launch and no testimonials yet.

Be easy on me.
