Writing about VegvisAI?
Everything you need in one place: what it is, facts with sources, logo files and screenshots. Use them freely in articles about VegvisAI.
In short
VegvisAI is an open guide that helps AI assistants such as ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini and local models find and understand businesses, public services and organisations. A business publishes a small AI business card on its own website; the guide indexes only what the business publishes, shows results in random order, and never sells ranking, placement or verification. The first step for anyone is a free AI check that shows how well an AI can read their website.

The name
Vegvis (VAYG-vees) is Norwegian. Veg: road. Vis: show. VegvisAI shows AI the road to your business. Write it as one word with a capital V and AI: VegvisAI.
Logo
The logo is the V in the name: a V that turns into an arrow, with a dotted trail to a small bot. Use the files as they are: do not separate the V from the name, recolour or stretch it. VegvisAI™ is a name in use; it is not licensed with the code.
