Competitors, ethical suppliers, sale channels, distributors, market entry, sustainability, eco-design, the regulations that actually reach it and its public record of audits, controversies and rulings - each scan run against the live web from nothing more than a name or a URL, kept, and downloadable whole. Brand Mapping also puts up to 11 questions to each configured AI engine (Grok 4.7, Kimi K3, Google AI Mode) and measures how often each answer names the brand and its rivals, then reads Google Trends and their Instagram, TikTok, YouTube pages.
An audit used to start with the same five questions asked seven times - market, category, region, price tier - before anything ran. The profile pass answers them from the brand itself, so what is left for you is the part only you know: which question you are asking about it.
01
Type the brand
A name or a website is the whole input. Where the brand sells, what it makes, which region it is based in and what tier it prices at are resolved first and shown to you, rather than asked of you.
NameURL
02
Pick one dimension
Each scan is its own question with its own result, so you run the one you need rather than paying for all of them. The cost line tells you how many web searches it fires before you press anything.

03
Narrow it to your question
Every option opens on Auto, which is what the profile resolved. Pick one - Germany rather than the EU, Tier 2 mills, the challengers rather than the direct peers - and that scan searches and answers on your choice. Leave it and nothing has to be set.

Keep it, and take it with you
Every result opens on its verdict, the findings it rests on and ranked actions, then numbered exhibits under the sections they prove. Results are saved against the brand and re-open later exactly as they ran. Every scan is built as a web page with its own link; download the same pages as a PDF, a slide deck or a Word document, for one scan or the whole audit, at no extra charge.
Nothing runs until you choose a scan, and it says how many searches it takes first.
The scans
Each dimension is its own question.
These are the scans the studio runs, read from the same registry its catalog renders. Each one says what it returns and how many live web searches it takes to return it.
Market
Who else is out there, and the routes to the buyer.

Who runs a scan
The desks that have to know a brand cold.
Nobody wants an audit for its own sake. It is the thing standing between a decision and the meeting where somebody asks what it was based on.
Brand and strategy
Before a repositioning, the question is who the brand is actually sitting against at its price, and where nobody is standing yet. A competitor read with prices and sustainability stances side by side answers that without a month of desk research.

Sustainability and compliance
Regulation lands on a brand and its suppliers differently, and a register that does not say which party carries an obligation cannot be acted on. The compliance audit splits them, with the evidence each one needs and what it costs to miss.

International growth
Entering a market is a set of smaller questions: which comparable brands are already there, which channels pay back, which showrooms and agents to approach and when. Running those as separate scans keeps each answer sourced and each one re-openable.

Sourcing and supply
A supplier pitching a brand and a brand vetting its suppliers need the same picture from opposite ends. The supplier scan reads certifications, tier and forced-labour risk by region, and hands its discoveries to the Supplier Map to be filtered.
