Sarah Rolland

Founder, Operato AI

I'm the founder of Operato AI, a tool that helps brands understand and improve how they show up in AI-generated answers, from ChatGPT to Gemini to Perplexity. Originally from Paris, I've built my career at the intersection of technology and operations. I was one of the first team members at AppsFlyer, the Modern Marketing Cloud and grew from being a simple Customer Success Manager to a Regional Manager for the French Market within 10 years. My GTM expertise, acquired through my various roles, gave me the necessary boost to create Operato AI. Like mobile technology in the early 2010s, artificial intelligence (and now the shift from search engines to answer engines) represents a true source of inspiration for me. I believe visibility isn't just about being found. It's about being trusted enough by AI systems that they recommend you first. Whether you're trying to understand why a competitor keeps getting cited instead of you, or you just want to know what ChatGPT is telling people about your brand, I'm here to help you find out and fix it. Ready to see what AI is really saying about you?

About Operato AI: Making Your Brand Visible to AI

Operato AI was founded on a simple observation: buyers are increasingly asking AI, not Google, where to look, what to buy, and who to trust. Most brands have no idea what ChatGPT, Gemini, or Perplexity are telling those buyers about them, let alone how to change it. We exist to close that gap.

Our Mission

To give every brand, from the two-person startup to the global enterprise, a clear, honest picture of how AI describes them, and a practical plan to improve it. We don't sell vanity scores. We don't build dashboards nobody opens. We build visibility tracking your team actually checks, action plans your team actually ships, and results you can point to.

What Makes Us Different

We specialize in AI answer engines, not general marketing analytics. Unlike broad marketing suites that bolt on an "AI visibility" tab, we built Operato specifically to track, explain, and improve how ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, and Claude represent your brand.

We are action-focused. Our value is in the fix, not just the finding. Every report tells you exactly what to publish, structure, or pitch next, not just a score that moves for reasons you can't act on.

We stay with you. Visibility isn't a one-time audit. It shifts every time an AI model updates. We track continuously, flag what changed, and keep your action plan current.

We work in English and French. We serve brands across North America, France, and French-speaking markets worldwide. Most AI visibility tools today only think in English.

Our Values

Clarity: We explain AI visibility in plain language. No jargon, no vanity metrics.

Honesty: We tell you exactly where you stand, even when the answer is you're not being cited yet.

Results: We measure success by citations and pipeline impact, not scores that don't move a deal forward.

Responsibility: We track and recommend responsibly. No manipulating AI outputs, no fake reviews, no spam tactics.
