SAN DIEGO, Calif., June 24, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — OtterlyAI, the AI Search Optimization platform, today announced it is the headline sponsor of BrightonSEO San Diego 2026. The conference runs September 15 and 16 at the San Diego Convention Center and brings together the search and digital marketing community from across the United States and beyond.
OtterlyAI now has over +30,000 users and is the headline sponsor at BrightonSEO San Diego
North America already makes up 47% of OtterlyAI’s customer base. As US brands race to stay visible inside AI answers, OtterlyAI is meeting them where the GEO conversation is loudest: 47% of customers there (with brands & agenices such as BenQ, Stella Rising and RDA) and now the headline slot at the field’s biggest stage.
As headline sponsor, OtterlyAI will have:
- Brand presence across the full event. The OtterlyAI logo appears on stages, screens, entrances, and conference assets across both days.
- A thought leadership speaking slot. OtterlyAI CEO Thomas Peham will take the stage to share findings from two years of measuring AI Search. Session details will be announced.
- 20 complimentary tickets for OtterlyAI fans & partners who want to attend in person.
- The OtterlyAI side event. Our team is hosting a side event for the SEO community, so come meet us in person.
“North America is where the GEO conversation is moving fastest, and nearly half of our customers are already there,” said Thomas Peham, CEO and co-founder of OtterlyAI. “As the OGs of GEO, we wanted to show up in a big way. Headline sponsoring BrightonSEO San Diego puts us in the room with the search community that is rethinking how brands stay visible in AI answers.”
