Ehsan's Growth Commentary
After working with 43+ AI/ML companies, the pattern is clear: SEO & Organic Search at the Seed stage requires founder-driven execution. The teams that win start smaller than they think they should and iterate 3x faster than their competitors.
With 3-10 people and $50-300K budget, focus SEO & Organic Search efforts on the single highest-ROI activity. Do not spread thin across multiple sub-channels. Validate one approach before adding another.
