Eli Research methodology and data principles
If we did not measure it, we do not publish it as a finding.
Research governance is active. Findings require captured observations and reproducible rules before publication.
RELEASE STANDARD
Methodology is publishable before findings are.
Eli can publish the question universe, schema, definitions and quality controls before a benchmark release. It will only publish an aggregate when the underlying observations are complete, reviewable and described with their coverage and limitations. Until then, this page makes no performance, ranking or customer-outcome claim.
Observations and definitions
Save evidence first, classify second, aggregate third and interpret last. Define recommendation, mention, citation, source type, action readiness and evidence tier without mid-report changes.
Version and uncertainty
Version prompt universe, methodology, dataset, report and scoring. State sample, missingness, ambiguous cases, model changes and limitations.
No fabricated benchmarks
Never present illustrative percentages, fake customer outcomes, invented rankings or synthetic rows as findings. Mark synthetic examples Illustrative example.
Corrections and sensitive data
Document errors, release corrected version and preserve history. Customer/private data needs permission, minimization and appropriate aggregation; security findings require responsible handling.

What Eli is: AI agents that do your marketing work
Eli is an AI growth team for B2B companies: four autonomous AI agents for AI search, your website, conversions and Meta ads. They work every day; you approve what matters. You do not do the marketing work yourself: Eli's agents do it every day, also when you are not logged in, and ask you only when a decision is yours.
- AI Search Agent: gets you named when buyers ask ChatGPT and Gemini what to buy.
- Website Agent: fixes the pages where buyers decide; changes go live after your yes.
- Conversion Agent: tracks which visits become customers, through the Eli site tag.
- Paid Ads Agent: tests Meta ads inside your budget, after a tracking check.
Eli is for founders of B2B software and service companies, often 11 to 50 people, whose website gets visitors but not enough customers, and who have no marketing team to work on it.
You use Eli from ChatGPT or Claude, through Eli's MCP connector, or in your Eli account at hireeli.io, and Eli sends you one short report a week. There is no new dashboard to learn.
Eli Free is free forever: one website, a diagnosis in the first 48 hours, then 5 answers once a week, no card. Eli Autopilot has all four agents (AI Search, Website, Conversion and Paid Ads for Meta ads, Meta ads by invitation while Meta reviews Eli) on every plan; only the capacity differs: Launch $99, Core $249 or Grow $599 a month (or €99, €249 and €599). Eli Done for You is $1,500 or €1,500 a month: Grow's capacity, set up and run with Eli's team. Every plan is monthly and can be cancelled anytime, and every account starts free. Enterprise is scoped and priced in a call. Your ad budget is separate and goes directly to Meta.
On G2, Eli is rated 4.8 out of 5 from 2 verified reviews (checked 20 October 2026). G2 reviews
You approve Eli's first change and your ad budget. After that you can let Eli improve pages and publish by itself, and you can undo anything. More money or anything new still waits for your yes. "Stop everything" works at any time. Eli never promises a ranking, a revenue figure, a multiple or a date. It tracks conversions, reports what it measured, and says so when it is too early to tell.
