what we do

Reputation Management Agency

In Ink. On Feeds. Across the AI Ecosystem.

Reputation is no longer just judged by humans – it is summarised by Artificial Intelligence.

Generative Engine Optimisation (GEO) has fundamentally merged digital discoverability with corporate brand reputation.

Building authority and trust through earned media, commentary and cultural relevance has never been more business critical.

We keep our clients consistently cited, highly praised, and actively discussed across the web’s most influential platforms. We help prevent the LLMs scaling misconceptions through consistency of message across comms.

With ChatGPT alone processing billions of prompts each day, it’s clear the technology is changing the way people find and perceive products and services – both in the B2C and B2B worlds.

Through the power of earned media, combined with the techniques of performance marketing, Smoking Gun helps you play to the rules of AI visibility, while always protecting your brand reputation.
