    "narrative": "LightSite AI was founded by Stas Levitan to solve a critical problem: businesses are invisible to AI-powered search engines and assistants. As AI becomes the primary way people discover information and make purchasing decisions, traditional SEO is no longer enough. LightSite pioneered Generative Engine Optimization (GEO)—making websites natively discoverable by ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Perplexity, and other AI systems. Today, LightSite helps businesses appear in AI-generated responses, get cited by AI assistants, and optimize their content for the new era of generative search.",
