Bootstrapped SaaS to 80,000 Users With Zero Ad Spend
AI SEO + ChatGPT Custom GPT Optimization
When I launched Presentia.ai, we had no marketing budget and no ad spend. With SAASPEDIA’s AI SEO services and ChatGPT Custom GPT optimization, we went from zero to 80,000+ users in just 8 months. Being cited in ChatGPT and Google Gemini gave us organic visibility we could never buy, and it turned into real signups and recurring revenue. SAASPEDIA made AI search our growth engine.

The Challenge
Presentia.ai launched with a powerful product but faced the classic bootstrapped SaaS dilemma: zero marketing budget, no ad spend, and limited resources to compete in a crowded market. Traditional paid acquisition wasn’t an option, and organic SEO alone wouldn’t scale fast enough.
The Strategy
SAASPEDIA implemented a comprehensive AI SEO strategy focused on optimizing Presentia.ai’s visibility within ChatGPT, Google Gemini, and other large language models. The approach included:
- ChatGPT Custom GPT optimization for maximum citation frequency
- Answer Engine Optimization (AEO) targeting high-intent queries
- LLM SEO techniques to ensure consistent brand mentions
- Strategic content positioning for AI-recommended solutions
The Results
Within 8 months, Presentia.ai scaled from zero to over 80,000 users — entirely through organic AI search visibility. The company achieved sustainable recurring revenue without spending a single dollar on paid advertising, proving that AI SEO can be the primary growth engine for bootstrapped SaaS companies.
