Case Study

Making Enterprise Content Legible to AI

Technical SEO for a search landscape that stopped being a list of blue links

Search stopped meaning ten blue links. Customers and job candidates increasingly ask an assistant instead of a search engine, and most enterprise sites are effectively invisible to those assistants. Content renders in JavaScript that bots never execute, and there is no machine-readable summary of what the site is even for.

Working with J.B. Hunt's SEO manager, I built the fix. Every web property got an llm.txt file describing its purpose and structure in a format language models can parse. On the career sites, where the stakes were highest, we had developers serve plain HTML to scraping bots instead of JavaScript-rendered pages, so crawlers and assistants could actually read the job listings.

Result: 12% increase in job applications, attributable to the change.


Case Study

Attribution That Paid for Itself

Driver recruiting was spending real money on media without a reliable read on which sources produced qualified applicants. I built a custom Google Tag Manager implementation with custom dimensions and a disciplined UTM architecture, so every lead traced back to its true source.

The media budget never changed. What changed was knowing where to point it.

Result: 30 additional qualified driver leads per day, on a flat budget.


Case Study

An AI Agent for Executive Reporting

Executive reporting meant pulling numbers out of Google Data Studio dashboards by hand every month, then reformatting them into something a leadership audience would actually read. I built an agent on Microsoft Copilot to read the dashboards, extract the findings that mattered, and draft the reporting, with a human review pass before anything went out.

Result: eight hours a month back, every month.
