Prague, Czech Republic, May 5, 2026 (Globe Newswire) — Prague-based AI visualization startup VisibAI was officially launched today at WE Make Future 2026, Italy’s leading innovation festival, to be held in Bologna from June 24-26, 2026, and Web Summit 2026 to be held in Lisbon, Portugal, from November 9-12, 2026. announced that it would be exhibiting at 2026.
Stripe’s audit by VisibAI found it scored 78 out of 100 across six AI platforms, 43 points above the fintech industry average, appeared in 92% of ChatGPT and 88% of Claude’s queries about payment processors, and detected PayPal and Square as top competitors.
VisibAI helps brands and agencies measure how they appear in AI-generated answers across ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, Gemini, Mistral, and You.com. The platform runs over 100 industry-tailored visibility checks for each audit, identifies competitors being mentioned on behalf of your brand, and creates a remediation list that includes downloadable schema markup and robots.txt files. This product is in private beta and will be generally available at WMF 2026.
The two appearances represent important moments for the company.
At WE Make Future 2026, VisibAI is participating in a startup competition where founder Francesco Bianchi is seeking pre-seed funding to expand its engineering team and accelerate its product roadmap, which includes planned support for Google AI Overviews and Microsoft Bing Copilot.
At Web Summit 2026, VisibAI will be one of more than 2,300 startups exhibiting at one of the world’s largest technology events, introducing its platform to investors, agencies, and corporate buyers from around the world.
This announcement comes at a pivotal moment for the search marketing industry. In April 2026, SEO Week NYC introduced HEO (Hybrid Engine Optimization), the fifth major acronym after SEO, AEO, GEO, and LLMO. This represents work that is visible to both search engines and AI assistants. Industry observers say the rapid adoption of the abbreviation reflects a fundamental change in practice. In other words, as more buyers start researching products using AI assistants instead of traditional search engines, brands that are invisible to ChatGPT and Perplexity are losing pipeline that doesn’t show up in analytics.
“The acronyms keep changing, but the work remains the same,” says Francesco Bianchi, founder of VisibAI. “When someone asks an AI assistant about your category, your brand should be among the answers. We built VisibAI to accurately measure that in one place, across all major AI platforms. WMF and Web Summit are two of the most important stages in European technology, and bringing VisibAI to both in the same year will allow us to reach the founders, agents, and investors who need it most.”
VisibAI is currently available for free trial with no credit card required. The platform offers a free tier, a one-time starter plan of 29 euros, a pro subscription of 79 euros per month, an agency plan of 149 euros per month (with white-label functionality for up to 25 clients), and a custom enterprise tier.
