Prospects and customers are using AI. When someone asks ChatGPT, Gemini, or Claude for a recommendation, availability, or a question about a business specifically, does AI know the answer? For most small service businesses, it doesn't. AI either can't find them, doesn't have accurate information, hallucinates, or tells the customer
to go elsewhere, often to a competitor.
There's a knowledge gap between what a business does and what AI knows about them. Critical information is trapped in third-party tools like booking platforms and SaaS systems, locked in formats AI doesn't easily read like PDFs and images, scattered across pages with conflicting details, or simply in the heads of owners and employees - never written down. Courtyard AI closes that gap. We help businesses get discovered, accurately represented, and give AI assistants the knowledge they need to sell.
The platform works in three steps. Connect the business website, social media, files, and SaaS tools - Courtyard analyzes everything automatically. It then enriches and structures the business knowledge, including the implicit expertise in the heads of owners and employees, through guided prompts. The result is a business that's fully actionable to AI - discoverable, accurately represented, and ready to close the sale across every major AI assistant.
Built for services businesses - home services, restaurants, gyms, clinics, salons, and other. Courtyard requires no technical work, no blog posts, and no SEO.
