Get on the AI shortlist.
Your buyers ask ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini and Google which tool to pick, and get back a shortlist of 3–5 names. Those answers increasingly cite YouTube reviews. Shortlisted Media makes those videos across a network of business-buyer channels, aims each one at a real buying question, and shows you which AI answers cite them.
Why YouTube, why now
In our October 2026 baseline, an AI assistant with web search answered 29 small-business buying questions. 26 of the 29 answers linked YouTube videos.
The answers mostly cited independent reviewers and explainers, and rarely cited brand-made tutorials. Your own channel tells buyers how to use the product. A creator's video helps them decide.
Under "YouTube videos worth watching", the answer listed first:
- "Navan Travel Review for Small Biz (Pros and Cons)": "made specifically for small businesses"
- 2 other Navan reviews
How it works
We list the 10–20 buying questions you want to win and check who AI answers cite today.
Each video is built around one question, with chapters named after it, clear spoken claims and a full description.
Different angles of the same question run across our channels: review, how-to, comparison and use case.
You get citation checks before launch and at 30, 60 and 90 days, plus a refresh when answers drift.
