In 2026, B2B software discovery has shifted from keyword search to LLM recommendation. This playbook provides a 12-week framework for webinar platforms to optimize their 'AI footprint.' By focusing on structured data, authoritative citations, and conversational content clusters, brands can move from being 'indexed' to being 'recommended' by leading AI agents like ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini.
