• Opportunity: AI citation audits and retainers for B2B firms invisible in AI search

• Difficulty: Moderate. Content and SEO fluency required, not deep engineering

• Time to First Revenue: 2 to 4 weeks, sourced through a paid audit rather than a retainer pitch

• Revenue Potential: Illustrative. $1,500 to $3,000 per audit; $2,000 to $6,000 per month per retainer client at entry tier

• Competition Level: Rising fast, not yet consolidated. Pricing across the category still spans 100x

• Best For: SEO consultants, content marketers, and agency owners with existing B2B client relationships
