Pull a clean snapshot of what ChatGPT, Claude, and Perplexity say about your Dana Point business today. Free as a self-serve tool, or hire me to close the gaps and prove the change ninety days later.
Dana Point sells experiences a visitor books before they ever arrive — a slip at the harbor, a whale-watch charter, a table at a Lantern District restaurant, an anniversary night at a Monarch Beach resort. More of those decisions now start with a question typed into an AI model, not a Google search. When someone asks Claude for "a sunset sailing charter out of Dana Point Harbor" or asks ChatGPT which Lantern District spot does fresh local catch, the model answers with whoever it can verify. If that is not you, you never knew the ask happened.
The audit makes that invisible loss visible. I run the prompts a real traveler or wedding planner would use, against every model that matters, and hand back a plain snapshot of what gets said about you — and what gets said about your category with your name nowhere in it. For a yachting or hospitality operator that lives on bookings, a vacuum in the answer is a competitor's reservation.
A note on who I am. ORBT Labs is one person, San Diego-based, and I drive South OC in about seventy-five minutes when in-person matters. My sister studio XALA handles AI-citation work for clinics, dental, and real-estate brokerages — if you are a Dana Point realtor, I will hand you off cleanly. Harbor operators, fine dining, fishing outfits, and luxury hospitality run through me.
A sportfishing and charter outfit at the Harbor. Two boats, a thirty-year captain, a loyal repeat list but flat new bookings. The owner runs the free tool and sees ChatGPT lists them on a generic "Dana Point fishing" prompt yet goes silent on "half-day whale watching with kids." We deepen the audit, find the site never names trip types, durations, or capacities the models can lift, ship Service schema per charter, and seed two independent harbor-guide listings. The day-90 panel puts them in two of four model answers for the family-trip prompt.
A fine-dining restaurant in the Lantern District. Strong room, weak digital footprint, invisible to Perplexity for "best ocean-view dinner in Dana Point." The free tool returns a competitor by name. I do a paid engagement: a menu and cuisine rewrite that names the dishes and the view, Restaurant schema with accurate hours, and a primary-source chef bio crawlers can quote. By day 60 the model recommends them, not just the rival.
A luxury hospitality property near Monarch Beach. Beautiful brand site, but every model describes the resort in vague adjectives and quotes a booking aggregator instead of the property. I rewrite the key pages to lead with verifiable amenities and event capacity, add Event schema for the recurring sunset offerings, and earn two real travel-guide mentions. Day-90 snapshot has Claude naming the property directly.
This is an audit and a focused remediation, not a brand overhaul. I do not promise a specific citation count and I do not run paid ads. If the site has structural problems that block AI crawlers, I name them in the report and either fix the load-bearing pieces in scope or quote a separate rebuild. The free tool tells you most of what you need to know before you pay a dollar — that is the entire point of putting it out for free.
San Diego is studio headquarters. Dana Point is about seventy-five minutes up the coast, so in-person is reachable for the first conversation — harbor, Lantern District, or wherever is easy. Most of the work runs remote after that.
