The Founding Story of Otterly.AI

Founded by Thomas Peham, Josef Trauner and Klaus-M. Schremser, Otterly.AI quickly became one of the first AI Search Monitoring Solutions for marketing teams. Everything started with their own need to understand brand and website performance on AI Search Engines.

Why Otterly.AI? Otters are intelligent, humble and agile. They are great at mastering difficult environments while having great eyesight. This is all you need to master the disruptions in marketing. And obviously, otters are cute, aren't they?
