Claude Visibility
Why is Claude not mentioning my business?
Short answer
Claude often omits companies because there is not enough independent information available about them or because it is unclear how they fit into the category being discussed. The issue is usually visibility and understanding rather than product quality.

Detailed answer
Most businesses describe themselves on their own website, but Claude appears to benefit from seeing information confirmed by multiple sources.
If nearly everything written about a company exists only on its own website, there is less external context available. The system may struggle to confidently determine what the business does, who it serves, and how it compares to alternatives.
Another common issue is positioning. Companies that describe themselves differently across their website, social profiles, and directory listings create ambiguity. Consistency helps Claude connect information into a coherent understanding of the business.
