Watch it work

How a phantom wins the answer

  1. 01

    A buyer asks an AI.

    They never see your ads or your blog. They see one answer.

  2. 02

    The AI reads the web.

    It leans on independent sources, and discounts pages written by vendors about themselves.

  3. 03

    It finds your phantom.

    An independent trade publication on its own domain, with the deepest coverage of the question.

  4. 04

    And it names you.

    Your brand, recommended in the answer, cited to a publication you run.

Invisible to you. Unmissable to AI.

The science of third party

LLMs prefer third-party content to try to avoid bias

However, all information on the Internet is biased. With Phantomstory, build your own media outlets and find thoughtful opportunities to mention your product.

The writing engine

An entire writing system on autodrive

Curate, write, enhance, and publish run end-to-end without requiring a human in the loop. You set the direction; the engine ships the articles.

01

Curate

Tracks competitor blogs, SEO and AEO signals, trends, and doc changes to queue the highest-leverage topics automatically.

02

Write

Adversarial writing kernels produce copy that reads like humans, not models, across nine customizable voices.

03

Enhance

Every draft gets a senior editor's polish: on-voice, fact-checked, internally linked, tabled, and illustrated.

04

Publish

One click to your site and socials. Push JSON or MDX, or deploy to Sanity, Webflow, Framer, or Ordinal.

A marketing sandbox

Test what content strategies perform. Imitate the best candidates on your own first-party domain.

Phantomstory lets you spin up miniature marketing sandboxes to find the content strategy that works best, without risking your brand. Once you know the winning approaches, replicate a similar campaign on your own domain.
