How Big Leap turned AI search anxiety into reliable retainer fuel

The easy traffic days of old-school SEO are over. That has brands spooked.

Digital marketing agency Big Leap uses Scrunch to help its clients navigate the new norm of AI search—and win new business in the process.

“I would recommend Scrunch to any other agency. I’ve honestly recommended Scrunch already to other businesses that we're not even working with. I found it to be such a powerful platform that I want everyone to have that kind of visibility.” — Tyler Brown, Head of SEO & AI, Big Leap

You can’t manage what you can’t measure

“Should I be worried”? That was the question Tyler Brown, Head of SEO & AI at Big Leap, kept hearing from clients.

The source of their anxiety was the explosive popularity of tools like ChatGPT—and how usage could impact their search performance. That concern has since been validated by huge drops in organic search volume across industries.

Brands can't build a modern search strategy in the dark. Tyler's clients had zero visibility into how they appeared across AI platforms like ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google's AI Overviews.

He evaluated six vendors. None had the breadth of data he wanted—let alone persona-based tracking, a top priority for his clients.

Until Scrunch.

“Our main challenge was the fact that we had blind spots in the AI and large language model space. So when we found Scrunch, it really provided us with the data that we needed to make the right decisions for our clients.” — Tyler Brown, Head of SEO & AI, Big Leap

There’s an easy mode for AI search

Scrunch puts everything Big Leap needs to boost AI search performance in one interface—from automating monitoring and insights to transforming site content into an AI-friendly format.

What Tyler tracks with Scrunch:

Tyler is an especially strong advocate for Scrunch's sentiment and share of voice analyses. Sentiment tracking shows how AI platforms perceive client brands and how that perception shifts over time. Share of voice analysis identifies which competitors are gaining ground—and where clients can win it back.

Multi-client management and a unified admin view let Tyler monitor multiple brands and switch between client accounts without friction. That centralized workflow directly reduces time spent on manual reporting.

The result: time saved for Tyler and higher-quality traffic landing on clients' websites.

"The traffic is much more informed and converts at a much higher rate. We find average engagement time on our clients' websites is extremely high. For some clients, it's in the 8-to-10-minute range, whereas traditional Google search is more in the 2-to-3-minute range."
— Tyler Brown, Head of SEO & AI, Big Leap

That 8-to-10-minute average engagement time is roughly 3–4× longer than the 2-to-3-minute benchmark Tyler sees from traditional Google search traffic.

Better data equals better business

Big Leap doesn't just use Scrunch for analysis—it uses it for new business acquisition. The sales team regularly pulls Scrunch data into prospecting decks, giving future clients a concrete preview of the insights they can expect as customers.

With a free prospecting license for agency partners, Tyler can add prospects ahead of pitches to show where they’re winning, where they’re losing, and how Big Leap can help.
