Buyers are using AI to de-risk buying decisions.
They’re asking ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini and Claude which solution solves their problem. And AI is answering, with or without your input.
The response your buyers get is shaped by the three pillars of AI visibility:
- Technical crawlability
- Your owned content
- Third-party content
All three matter, but third-party reinforcement is the differentiator.
That’s what separates companies with strong visibility and clear positioning from companies whose CEOs are asking, “Why are we losing deals?”
And here’s the uncomfortable truth: you likely don’t know what those AI-generated answers look like. You don’t know which sources are influencing them. And you likely don’t have a plan to fix it when those answers are wrong, incomplete or positioning your competitor as the obvious choice.
This isn’t a future problem. It’s happening right now.
AI-powered search is increasingly zero-click. Buyers get their answers without ever landing on your site.
Which means:
- Your owned content alone won’t cut it. AI pulls from trusted third-party sources — reviews, analyst reports, integration directories, publisher content, partner case studies.
- Traditional SEO is incomplete. You can’t optimize what you don’t control.
- Visibility without control is passive. Watching how AI represents you isn’t a strategy.
The question isn’t whether AI is shaping your market narrative. It’s whether you’re participating in that conversation or allowing yourself to be defined by it.

The PartnerStack x Evertune integration gives you visibility and control
B2B companies can see exactly how AI represents them, and immediately act on what they find by activating the third-party ecosystem that influences those answers.
Insight → Activation → Measurable Change.
“Most B2B companies are discovering the hard way that AI isn’t pulling answers from their carefully crafted marketing materials, it’s synthesizing content from across the web, including sources they've never thought to influence," said Brian Stempeck, CEO of Evertune. “Our platform was built to give teams visibility into that black box. But visibility alone isn’t enough. That’s why this partnership with PartnerStack is so powerful. For the first time, B2B companies can see the problem and have an immediate path to fix it through PartnerStack’s extensive partner network.”
Evertune: Diagnose how AI sees you
Evertune shows you exactly where and how your brand appears in AI-generated answers.
You see:
- Which AI engines are citing you (or ignoring you)
- How your product is described, and whether it’s accurate
- Where competitors are outpositioning you
- Which third-party sources are driving those narratives
- Gaps where your category presence is weak or missing entirely
You get a clear picture of where your narrative is strong, where it’s breaking down, and — critically — which external sources you need to influence to change the outcome.
PartnerStack: Activate the content that matters
Knowing the problem is only half the battle. The real unlock is doing something about it.
PartnerStack enables you to engage and scale the trusted third-party relationships that AI systems rely on.
You can:
- Activate publishers, affiliates, creators, integration partners and resellers
- Commission new content or update existing assets with accurate, current information
- Operationalize AI visibility as a repeatable, measurable GTM motion
- Track which partnerships are driving narrative shifts in AI-generated results
This isn’t about buying links or gaming algorithms. It’s about working with credible sources that AI trusts and making sure those sources tell your story accurately.
Why this integration matters
Most teams are flying blind
They know AI is shaping buyer perception. But they don’t have a system to:
- Monitor what AI is actually saying
- Identify which sources are influencing those answers
- Activate partnerships to correct or improve the narrative
- Measure whether their efforts are working
This integration solves all four.
Traditional approaches don’t work
Owned content isn’t enough. AI doesn’t just parrot your website. It synthesizes third-party sources to form answers.
Partner programs are underutilized. Most companies have affiliates, resellers and integration partners, but aren’t thinking about them as a lever for AI visibility.
This integration bridges the gap. You see what needs to change, and you have a network ready to make it happen.
“Partner programs have always been about leveraging third-party credibility to drive growth,” said Bryn Jones, CEO of PartnerStack. “What’s changed is where that credibility matters most. AI is now the front door to the buying journey, and it’s heavily influenced by the same publishers, affiliates and partners our customers already work with. This integration turns partnerships from a top-of-funnel tactic into a strategic lever for controlling your market narrative. If you’re not thinking about how your partner content shows up in AI answers, you’re already behind.”
A real-world workflow
Let’s say you notice that when prospects ask AI, “What’s the best partner management platform for SaaS companies?” your brand doesn’t appear, but your competitor does.
Here’s what happens next:
- Evertune identifies the issue. The AI answer is citing three integration directories, two affiliate review sites and one analyst report, none of which mention you.
- PartnerStack activates third-party content. You engage the publishers and partners who write for those directories and review sites. You commission updated case studies, co-branded content and integration spotlights.
- Trusted content gets updated or created. Within weeks, new, accurate third-party content about your solution is published, on sites AI actually cites.
- AI answers evolve. As new sources become available, AI engines incorporate them. Your brand starts appearing in responses. The narrative shifts.
- You measure and iterate. Evertune tracks changes. You see what’s working. You double down.
AI visibility becomes a repeatable GTM capability, not a one-time experiment.
Who this is built for
This integration is designed for B2B companies that understand the stakes:
✓ Teams in competitive categories where AI answers can make or break deal flow
✓ Companies already investing in partnerships — affiliates, influencers, resellers, integration partners, reviews—who want to leverage that network for AI visibility
✓ GTM leaders seeing pressure from AI-generated answers that misrepresent their product, favor competitors or ignore them entirely
✓ Organizations that care about narrative accuracy, not just brand impressions
If you’re ready to operationalize AI search as a growth lever, and you have the partner ecosystem to back it up, this changes the game.
The bottom line
AI is already shaping your buyer’s perception. The question is whether you’re controlling your role in it or being defined by it.
The PartnerStack × Evertune integration gives you:
✓ Visibility into how AI represents your brand across search and answer engines
✓ Activation of the third-party content ecosystem that AI trusts and cites
✓ Control over your narrative in the channels that are replacing traditional search
This isn’t about adapting to a future trend. It’s about winning in the market that exists today.
Because the brands that master AI search visibility won’t just appear in more answers. They’ll be the ones buyers trust most when the answer matters.
