About Genivista

Who is behind Genivista, and are they independent?

Genivista is an independent AI visibility diagnosis practice for B2B companies in Ireland and the UK. It measures the Gap: how far a company is behind the competitor AI recommends instead, why, and what to fix first. Founded in 2022 by Neil Harte and based in County Wexford, Ireland, Genivista takes no fee from whoever does the work.

What does Genivista do?

Genivista measures how far a B2B company is behind the competitor AI recommends instead, diagnoses why, and hands the company a plan its own team can act on. It does this through three products: the Gap Check, the Gap Audit and the quarterly Gap Pulse.

The lens is commercial rather than technical. Neil Harte founded Genivista in 2022 after 25 years leading B2B sales teams, so AI visibility is treated as pipeline, competitive position and the buyer's first impression, not as an SEO task.

Where does the name come from?

“Gen” for generative AI, and “vista” for the view of a landscape that keeps changing. Genivista began as a generative AI consultancy and now concentrates on one question: what AI tells your buyers about you.

What Genivista does not do

  • No content writing, SEO implementation or link building
  • No PR campaigns, web development or paid media
  • No software, subscriptions or retainers
  • No commission or referral fees from implementers
  • No guaranteed rankings, citations or Gap reduction

Independence is the guarantee behind the plan: with no stake in who carries it out, the order of the work reflects only what closes the Gap.

Who does Genivista work with?

B2B companies whose buyers research and shortlist before they buy, in Ireland, the UK and beyond. The sector matters less than the buying behaviour: if your buyers ask AI who to consider, the Gap applies.

  • Technology and software

    Platforms and software sold to enterprise and mid-market buyers who now research suppliers through AI.

  • Professional services

    Consultancy, legal, accounting, engineering, testing and certification firms whose buyers shortlist before they call.

  • Financial services

    Fintech, payments, fund services and specialist lenders selling business to business.

  • Medical devices and life sciences

    Manufacturers, distributors and service providers selling into health-system and pharma procurement.

  • Industrial and engineering

    Engineered products and advanced manufacturing sold to OEMs, distributors and specifiers.

  • Any considered B2B purchase

    If your buyers ask AI who to consider before they contact anyone, the Gap applies, whatever the sector.

Why Ireland?

Genivista is based in County Wexford, Ireland, and knows the Irish sources AI draws on, from the business and technology press to Enterprise Ireland, IDA Ireland, industry bodies and directories. Ireland is the primary market; Jim Stafford leads work with UK-based clients.
