For Immediate Release
DeepDiscovery Rebrands as Brandleap to Lead the Fast-Growing AEO and Agentic Optimization Market
New name and expanded focus reflect the agency's evolution from digital research to helping brands get discovered, cited, and chosen by AI answer engines and autonomous agents
DeepDiscovery.io, the digital and research agency known for helping brands understand how they are found online, today announced it has rebranded as Brandleap.ai. The new identity marks the company's expansion into Answer Engine Optimization (AEO) and agentic optimization — the emerging disciplines that determine how brands surface in AI-generated answers and how autonomous AI agents evaluate, recommend, and transact with them.
As consumers increasingly turn to AI assistants and answer engines instead of traditional search, and as AI agents begin to research, compare, and purchase on their users' behalf, the rules of digital visibility are being rewritten. Brandleap.ai was created to help brands make that leap — from being ranked by search engines to being understood, trusted, and selected by AI systems.
“For years, DeepDiscovery.io helped brands decode how customers discover them. Today, discovery itself has changed — the front door to every brand is becoming an AI answer or an AI agent acting for the customer.”
“Brandleap.ai reflects where the market is going. We help brands leap ahead of that shift: showing up in the answers people read, and in the decisions agents make.”
Under the Brandleap.ai name, the agency's services now span AEO strategy and implementation, ensuring brands are accurately represented and cited across AI answer engines and large language models; agentic optimization, structuring content, data, and commerce experiences so AI agents can find, evaluate, and act on them; AI visibility research and measurement, tracking how brands appear in AI-generated answers versus competitors; and the full-funnel digital and research capabilities that clients have relied on since the company's founding.
The rebrand takes effect immediately. Existing client engagements, teams, and points of contact remain unchanged, and the company's web presence has moved to brandleap.ai.
