Built by an SEO professional for the future of digital marketing

Search is at a point of disruption and that includes the toolset. The future of Search is going to be fundamentally different and so are the tools we are going to use.

From the early days of search to the age of AI

When I started in SEO we saw a fast rate of change across technologies and platforms. In the last few years the market has become stale, with little progress. AI is disrupting that and presenting an exciting new challenge for Search professionals.

I built the tool I couldn’t find anywhere else

Across 20 years in the industry I’ve seen Google make lot of changes and whilst these used to be focussed around making Search work better, now it’s changing what Search does.

The reality is that Google is moving to a new model, one where we as publishers can no longer lean on the traditional SEO toolset to track and maintain visibility.

Qurmy is purpose-built from scratch to track how AI platforms see, cite and describe your brand, and to give you the specific changes that get you into the answer.

What makes Qurmy different
Built for AI search from day one
AI-native, not bolted on
Not a traditional SEO tool with an AI tab. Every feature is built around AI platform visibility.
Founder-led and opinionated
Built by someone who has done this work, not designed by committee. Every feature solves a real problem.
The future of SEO isn’t Gemini, it’s Google Search AI
We cover all the major AI surfaces but importantly also Google Search AI.

“SEO doesn’t work if there is no Search Engine to optimise for. We as marketers need to be prepared for the shift from information retrieval (Search) to interaction (AI).
