US Business Identity Verification for AI Visibility

The local problem

In United States, customers and machines still ask the same question: is this organization real, current, and the one behind this website? Local search, answer engines, and B2B buyers do not share one database. They assemble clues from websites, maps listings, and — when available — state formation + EIN where applicable.

What government registries do well

state formation + EIN where applicable establishes legal existence for many entities. That is necessary and not sufficient for AI-era discovery. Registries are often hard to cite in consumer answers, may lag trading names, and rarely publish the clean JSON package answer engines prefer to fetch in milliseconds.

What AI Verified adds

AI Verified is not a replacement for state formation + EIN where applicable. It is a selective public identity layer: Type A observation from credible public evidence, then Gold ($297/year) with domain control and optional packaging of registry identifiers the owner already holds. The result is a passport URL and machine-readable JSON that can sit beside — not instead of — official filings.

Practical sequence for US operators

• Keep the company filing current with the relevant authority.
• Align website NAP and any Google Business Profile with the same legal or trading name story.
• Earn or claim a Type A public record when evidence qualifies.
• Elevate to Gold: prove domain control, package identifiers honestly, publish the badge to the passport.
• Distribute the short passport URL in press, proposals, and citations.

What we will not claim

AI Verified is not a government agency in United States. Gold does not mean “approved by the state.” It means a third-party evidence state with domain attestation and structured packaging. Answer-engine ranking is never sold as a guarantee.
