White-Label AI Visibility Reports: The Agency Playbook
White-label AI visibility reporting lets an agency track whether ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini and Perplexity recommend each of its clients — and hand the results to those clients under the agency’s own name, not a vendor’s. Here’s what that actually needs to include, how it works in Surfaced, and how to launch it.
Why agencies are adding AI visibility as a service line
Buyers are increasingly asking an AI assistant for a recommendation before — or instead of — running a Google search. That’s a new, largely unmeasured channel for most local and service businesses, and most agencies already own the relationship where this naturally fits: they’re already reporting on search performance monthly. AI visibility is a logical extension of that report, not a new client relationship to build from scratch.
What “white-label” actually needs to mean
Plenty of tools call themselves white-label and mean “you can change your login screen logo.” For a report that’s actually going in front of a client, it needs more:
- Your logo, colour and company name on the report itself — not just the app shell.
- The same branding carried into report emails, since that’s often the only part a client actually opens.
- No vendor branding anywhere the client can see it.
- Unlimited clients under one login, each with its own scoring and prompts — not one account per client.
- Automated, scheduled delivery, so this doesn’t become a manual task someone has to remember to run every week.
- An optional custom domain, for agencies that want reports served from their own URL rather than a shared vendor domain.
How Surfaced’s white-label works
The Agency plan ($149/mo) covers unlimited clients and unlimited prompts under one account. Each client is its own project — its own prompts, its own tracked competitors, its own score — switchable from a single client list.
Branding lives in one settings screen with a live preview: set your company name, pick an accent colour (or enter a hex code), and add a logo URL, and the sample report re-skins instantly so you can see exactly what a client will see before you send anything. An optional custom domain field lets you point a CNAME at Surfaced so reports can live on your own domain. Weekly checks run automatically across all 4 engines for every client, and the report emails go out on your schedule — nothing to trigger by hand.
How to think about pricing this as a service line
There’s no single right number — it depends on your market and how much interpretation you bundle in on top of the raw data (a report with a one-line “here’s what to fix this month” note reads very differently to a client than the same numbers with no context). The useful framing: your cost is fixed regardless of client count on an unlimited plan, so the more clients you run through it, the lower your cost per client — which gives you room to either compete on price or treat the margin as the reward for building the report interpretation into your existing retainer.
A launch checklist
- Set your branding (logo, colour, company name) and preview it before you send anything.
- Add your first client as a project, with the real questions their customers ask AI.
- Run a check and review the report yourself before it goes to the client — know what you’re about to sell.
- Add 2–3 competitors per client so the report shows who’s winning the prompts your client isn’t.
- Decide your cadence for surfacing this to clients — folded into an existing monthly call, or its own weekly email.
- Roll it out to your full client list once the first one is dialed in.

Frequently asked questions
What does "white-label" actually include in Surfaced?
Your company name, your accent colour and your logo on every client report and email, with a live preview while you set it up. There's also an optional custom domain — point a CNAME at Surfaced and reports can serve from your own domain instead of ours.
Do clients see "Surfaced" anywhere?
No — once branding is set, reports and emails carry your company name, colour and logo. It's built to be resold as your own service line, not a co-branded add-on.
How is this different from an account manager manually checking ChatGPT for each client?
Manual checking doesn't scale past a handful of prompts, and it's the first thing that slips when the team gets busy. Automated weekly checks across all 4 engines, for every client and every prompt, remove that as a recurring task — the report generates and can be sent on a schedule instead.
Can I run this for clients in different industries under one account?
Yes — the Agency plan supports unlimited clients and prompts under one login. Each client is its own project with its own prompts, competitors, score and report, switchable from one account.
