Taking new projects · US & Taiwan

Every business has a website. Few get found by AI.

When a client asks ChatGPT, Google or Perplexity who to hire, the answer comes from a few sites. We work to make yours one of them, in English and 中文. Every month we check what AI and Google say about you, fix what's missing, and show you what changed. Nothing goes live without your OK.

What we do

We help Google and AI find, trust and name your business

One monthly service for your website, in English and 中文. We check where you show up, fix what keeps you out, and report what changed. No agency layer: the engineer who checks your site does the work.

How it works · See a real results page · See prices

Ask AI what your customers ask

Each month we ask ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity and Gemini 15 or more real customer questions, with live web search on. You see who they name, which sites they read, and whether they mix you up with a business that has a similar name.

Track Google's AI answers

Google now often puts an AI summary above the links (AI Overviews, and the chat-style AI Mode). For your most important searches, we check whether it cites your site, and who it cites instead.

Find the searches worth winning

Keyword research with real monthly search numbers. Quick wins: searches where you're already on Google page 1 but not in the top 3. New searches worth a page. And how your rankings spread over time.

Measure real visits and leads

Google clicks and rankings from Search Console, how often Microsoft Copilot cites your site (from Bing's AI Performance report), and the leads your site sends: contact forms and booking clicks.

Keep the site healthy

Speed, security and the technical basics that Google and AI crawlers need. Crawlers are the bots that read websites for search engines and AI assistants.

Fix it, in English and 中文

Answer-first pages and guides for the exact questions people ask, FAQ sections, structured data (labels that tell Google what each page is), and listings on the directories AI reads, like legal directories, Google Business Profile and Bing Places.

Also: booking and lead follow-up · AI assistants · mobile apps · fixing stalled projects

Already get leads but reply slowly? We wire follow-up into LINE or your inbox.

Who we help

Who we work with most

Most of our clients sit between the US and Taiwan, or serve customers in both English and 中文.

Cross-border professional firms

Law, immigration, accounting and estate firms whose clients research in English and 中文. One site that answers both, so Google and AI search can match you to the questions clients actually ask.

Taiwan businesses serving foreign visitors

Tours, shuttles, stays and activities that want foreign customers to find and book them directly in English, not only through booking platforms.

山行接駁 Go Hike: an English page for every route, built to be found.

Local service businesses

Property managers and other local services whose customers ask Google or AI for a recommendation before they call. We work to make sure the answer can include you, in the language your customers use.

How it works

The same four steps, every month

Measure, fix, you approve, report. You see what we found, what we changed, and what moved.

  1. 1 Measure

    Check where you stand

    The AI check, Google AI answers, rankings, real visits and leads, and site health. Same questions each month, so a change is a real change.

  2. 2 Fix

    We do the work

    Pages, guides, FAQ sections, structured data and directory listings, in English and 中文. We start with what should move the most.

  3. 3 You approve

    Nothing goes live without you

    Drafts go to a private review page that Google and AI can't see. You click Approve or Request changes.

  4. 4 Report

    Plain-language results

    A short email in English or 中文, next month's to-do list, and your own login to see your results any time.

How fast? AI assistants that search the web live can pick up changes within weeks. Google rankings usually take months. You see the numbers either way.

You stay in control

You know your business best, so every new page and every change waits for your OK.

  • Drafts sit on a private page, hidden from Google and AI
  • Approve with one click, or tell us what to change
  • We publish only what you approved

Next month's to-do

A short list, done for you

  • A guide for each question AI could not answer from your site, in English and 中文.
  • One registered firm name everywhere, so AI does not mix you up with a similar name.
  • Listings AI reads before it recommends a firm, such as attorney directories, Google Business Profile and Bing Places.

Drafts wait on your review page. Next month's check shows whether it worked.

Each month you also get a plain-language email in English or 中文. Clients sign in with Google and see their own site only. Get a free check on your questions

FAQ

Questions before we start

What does Ship to Live do for my business?

We help small businesses get found on Google and named by AI assistants like ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, Gemini and Microsoft Copilot, in English and 中文. Each month we check where you show up, fix your site and listings, and report what changed. We also build websites, booking and lead follow-up, AI assistants and mobile apps, and rescue stalled projects.

What happens each month?

Four steps. We measure: we ask AI assistants 15 or more of your customers' questions, check whether Google's AI summary cites you, and review your rankings, visits, leads and site health. We fix what keeps you out. You approve every draft on a private review page. Then you get a plain-language report email and next month's to-do list, and you can sign in to see your results any time.

Is the monthly AI check included in the price?

Yes. The monthly AI visibility check and your private results page are part of Site care (US$500 a month) and Monthly growth. Your first check is free. See prices

Will anything go live without my approval?

No. New pages and changes go to a private review page that Google and AI can't see. You click Approve or Request changes, and we publish only what you approved.

How long until we see results?

AI assistants that search the web live can pick up fixes to your site and listings within weeks. Google rankings for competitive searches usually take months. We report every month, so you can see what is moving either way.

How does a project start, and how is it priced?

With a free conversation about what you need. Then you get a short written plan with a fixed price, quoted in one email. Larger AI projects start with a two-week pilot on one workflow, running on your real data.

Can an AI agent answer from my company's own data? Is that safe?

Yes. Retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) makes your documents, policies and records the source the assistant answers from, with citations back to the original. We build RAG and agent systems, and our AI Visibility Checker uses the same approach. We set what the agent can read and do, log every action, and keep a person in the loop wherever a mistake would be costly.

SEO, AEO, GEO: what's the difference?

SEO gets your link into Google and Bing results. AEO (answer engine optimization) gets your content into featured snippets and Google's AI Overviews. GEO (generative engine optimization) gets your business cited in answers from ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, Gemini and Copilot. All three rest on fast pages, clear answers, structured data and an llms.txt layer. How we do it, and what it costs

Can't I just build my website with AI?

You can, and if you only need a simple page, you should. Building a site is cheap now. Getting found is the hard part: most new sites get almost no visitors. We build English / 中文 sites that Google and AI assistants can find, check and cite, then measure every month: Google clicks, AI citations, and which bookings came from where. For example, the WU LAW INTL PLLC site we built got 112 Google clicks in 28 days, and Microsoft Copilot cited it 487 times in the 90 days to October 2026, according to Google Search Console and Bing Webmaster Tools. We use AI too; we just know what to do with it.

Can you guarantee ChatGPT or Google will recommend us?

No, and nobody honestly can. AI engines decide whom to name, and they change often. What we can do is make your site easy to find, check and cite in English and 中文, fix what keeps you out, and measure how often you're named before and after, with the same questions each time.

Who is behind Ship to Live?

Ship to Live is a founder-led studio run by Yufan Chen, who leads every project. He was CTO of TalentSmartEQ, maintained and extended a gifting widget used by 40 million people at RealGifts, and holds a B.S. in Computer Science from UC San Diego and a Certificate in Agentic AI from Johns Hopkins. More about us

Do you work in Chinese, and where are you based?

Yes. We work in English and Traditional Chinese, from San Diego and Taipei, so US and Taiwan clients each get a workable time zone. US projects are contracted through QY LLC; Taiwan projects through 夏裕科技股份有限公司.
