Proof: how AI assistants started sending WERCS buyers

WERCS serves a small, specialized niche: paint booth service and maintenance. By September, its site drew 3,269 visits in a single month.

AI assistants send WERCS buyers
Since launch, AI assistants have sent at least 244 visitors: 191 from ChatGPT, 33 from Gemini, 11 from Perplexity, 5 from OpenAI and 4 from Copilot (Google Analytics, first-visit source, through October 18, 2026). None were recorded before March. They land on the WERCS guides, city service pages, brand pages and parts pages.

| OpenAI | 5 |
| Copilot | 4 |
Buyers call because ChatGPT named WERCS
Customers regularly call WERCS and say ChatGPT told them WERCS was the best choice.
Those calls never appear in website analytics, because a buyer who hears a name from an AI assistant often just picks up the phone, so every AI number here is a minimum.
