AI is already talking about your business. But it may not be getting the truth from you.
Cumae — pronounced “Cue-Me”
AI platforms increasingly stand between businesses and their customers. Cumae gives your company an authoritative source of business information and controls how approved external AI systems can access it.
Your business. Your information. Your authority.
Your hosted discovery page is free.
Every CRSTBL account — Business, Network, or Enterprise, including during your 14-day free trial — receives a hosted discovery page that structures your business information for AI consumption.
We believe discoverability in the age of AI is a baseline right, not a premium feature.
- Hosted, crawlable page built from your business data
- Structured for AI chatbot and LLM search
- Updates when you update CRSTBL
- Available on every account type
Go further than the free page.
The free page makes your business discoverable. A Cumae plan builds the authoritative profile — product and service relationships, business attributes, industry context, and the signals that distinguish you from similar names.

Customers are asking AI about you before they reach you.
Customers increasingly ask AI systems about companies, products, services, prices, policies, and availability before visiting a website or contacting a business.
Those answers get assembled from whatever the system can find. When the sources are stale or contradictory, the result is inaccurate representation, inconsistent brand language, and lost authority over the customer discovery experience.
Cumae gives you a way to have a say in that conversation — an authoritative profile you maintain, that approved AI systems can access directly from you.
- Outdated webpages
- Third-party directories
- Customer reviews
- Social media posts
- Incomplete or conflicting information
- Content that does not reflect your brand voice
What Cumae gives you.
Cumae controls how external AI systems access your business information — through an authoritative profile you own and maintain.
Define your source of truth
Create an authoritative business profile containing the information you want approved AI systems to use.
Keep information current
Update important facts in one place without depending on scattered third-party sources.
Control access
Determine which approved AI systems and applications can access the information made available through Cumae.
Protect brand representation
Provide approved information in your intended voice, terminology, and context.
Everything an AI system needs to describe you correctly.
Before and after Cumae.
| Without Cumae | With Cumae |
|---|---|
| AI assembles information from scattered sources | Approved AI systems can access an authoritative business profile |
| Details may be outdated or conflicting | Information can be maintained by the business |
| Brand descriptions are shaped by third parties | The business defines approved language and context |
| The company has limited visibility into supplied information | Publishing and access can be governed |
| Outside sources heavily influence the narrative | The business reestablishes itself as the primary authority |
You already have a Google Business Profile.
Google Business Profile is table stakes — it gets you into Google Maps and Search. The AI ecosystem is much bigger than Google.
Neutral platform, no gatekeeper bias.
Google’s directory is designed for Google’s ecosystem. Networks like Uber Eats, DoorDash, Apple, Amazon, and independent AI systems have every reason not to use it. Cumae is neutral — any approved AI platform can consume it without ceding control to a competitor.
One place, not ten.
Without Cumae, keeping your menu, hours, and location current means updating Google, Yelp, Facebook, Uber Eats, DoorDash, Apple Maps, and every industry directory separately. With Cumae you maintain it once.
Built for AI, not just Maps.
Google Business Profile was built for a world where customers searched by keyword and clicked links. Cumae was built for a world where customers ask questions — and expects AI systems to answer using rich menu, product, and service context.
Manage how AI talks with people — and about your business.
Cumae controls how external AI systems access your business information. CRSTA manages AI-powered conversations with customers and partners. The same trusted information that anchors your Cumae profile can support the conversations CRSTA has on your behalf.

What does the Founding Customer Offer include?
Save 25% on your first annual Cumae subscription — $74.25 for Base or $149.25 for Plus in year one. Subscriptions renew at the standard annual rate.
Can Cumae control what AI says about my business?
Cumae controls how approved external AI systems access the information you publish through it, and it gives you an authoritative source those systems can draw from. It cannot guarantee control over everything a platform ultimately says, and it cannot control information a system independently obtains from unrelated websites, reviews, or directories. What it does is make sure the accurate version is available, from you.
Do I need a CRSTA subscription to buy Cumae?
Cumae is priced as its own product. The free hosted discovery page comes with every CRSTBL account, and the Base and Plus plans are annual subscriptions. Talk to us about your situation and we will confirm what applies.
What is the difference between the free page and a paid plan?
The free hosted page makes your business discoverable. A paid plan builds an authoritative profile from structured data inside CRSTBL — product and service relationships, business attributes, industry context, and disambiguation from similar names — and generates optimization assets you can apply to your own website.
What is AEO or GEO?
AEO (AI Engine Optimization) and GEO (Generative Engine Optimization) describe making business information discoverable and usable by AI systems and large language models. It is the AI-era equivalent of SEO. Just as SEO helps you rank in Google, AEO helps your business be represented accurately in AI-generated answers.
Can I apply Cumae output to my own website?
Yes. Cumae generates recommended metadata, keywords, and implementation guidance you can apply to your own site, so you strengthen how AI systems read your content while keeping your digital presence on infrastructure you own and control.
Who owns the data?
You do. Cumae processes your information to generate the profile, enhanced AI context, and optimization assets. That does not transfer ownership of your underlying business data.
Does Cumae publish my customer conversations?
No. Raw customer conversations are never made public or discoverable. If you run CRSTA and opt in, approved and classified conversation insights can help improve your Cumae Business Discovery Profile — that is opt-in, and it works on approved insights, not raw transcripts.
What is the difference between Base and Plus?
Base covers the authoritative profile, enhanced AI context generation, website optimization assets, and publishing through CRSTBL. Plus adds quarterly context refreshes and publishing to new discovery networks as they come online.
