How I Fixed My Indian Startup's Invisibility on Google and ChatGPT in 24 Hours

By Mukul Dhiman | March 11, 2026

Have you ever searched for your own business on ChatGPT or Google and found nothing? Over 90% of Indian startups are completely invisible to AI search engines — and most founders have no idea why.

I am Mukul Dhiman, founder of SAGEDO — India's first AI and human hybrid execution team. Three months ago I discovered that ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google could not find SAGEDO at all. Here is exactly what was wrong and how I fixed every single issue in 24 hours.

Fix 1: Your robots.txt Is Blocking AI Crawlers

Most Indian startup websites accidentally block AI bots. ChatGPT uses GPTBot. Perplexity uses PerplexityBot. Google uses Googlebot. I updated SAGEDO's robots.txt to explicitly allow all of them. One change. Done.

Fix 2: No Crunchbase Profile

Crunchbase is where investors, journalists, and AI systems look for business information. I created SAGEDO's profile at crunchbase.com in 23 minutes. Crunchbase immediately assigned a Growth Prediction score of 88/100 and labeled SAGEDO as "Growing — Very Likely."

Fix 3: No Wikidata Entry

Wikidata powers Wikipedia, Google's Knowledge Graph, and most AI systems. When you exist on Wikidata, ChatGPT can mention you. I created SAGEDO's entry in 18 minutes. SAGEDO now has a permanent, verifiable identity in the world's largest open knowledge database.

Fix 4: Google Search Console Not Set Up

Without Search Console, Google finds your pages on its own slow schedule. I submitted SAGEDO's sitemap and within 48 hours Google had discovered 10 pages.

The Result

After fixing all four issues SAGEDO appeared in Crunchbase searches, Wikidata queries, and AI chatbot responses. The entire process took less than 3 hours of actual work.

If your Indian startup is invisible, the problem is almost always one of these four issues. SAGEDO fixes all of them for you in 24-48 hours. Visit sagedo.in to get started.
