With the rapid adoption of AI-powered search engines like ChatGPT, Gemini, and other large language models (LLMs), the way consumers search for healthcare information is evolving. AI engines are quickly becoming a primary source of information for consumers, patients, and even healthcare providers researching diseases, treatments, and pharmaceutical brands. 

But have you considered what AI says about your brand? You may not realize how the results generated by AI engines are influencing your reputation — and ultimately, patient and provider decisions. 

The Shift to AI-Powered Search 

Zero-click searches are on the rise, with users receiving answers directly from AI engines instead of traditional search engine results. As consumers increasingly rely on AI to answer their healthcare questions, pharmaceutical brands must ensure their presence is optimized for this new landscape. What AI models say about your brand can have a significant impact on perception, trust, and market performance. 

LiveWorld’s AI Brand Reputation Study uncovered some important insights: 

• Major brands are taking the lead in AI search presence due to their established digital footprints. 

• New drugs often struggle with AI invisibility, making it difficult to gain traction in competitive markets. 

• Brand sentiment in AI engines is influenced by more than just advertising spend; real-world data and online presence matter. 

Where AI Engines Gather Their Information 

AI models aggregate data from numerous sources to formulate responses. In our research, we found that AI engines rely on: 

• Clinical trial data 

• HCP sentiment and prescribing trends 

• Consumer sentiment from social listening 

• Google search trends 

• Digital presence and content 

• Your own website 

This means that even if you have a robust digital strategy in place, failing to optimize for AI search could leave your brand vulnerable to misrepresentation. Investing in AI search engine optimization (AI SEO) is no longer optional—it’s essential.
