Authority Intelligence — Partnership Programme
Become the authority
in your industry.
We produce flagship research reports, interview the experts, and build the content engine that makes your brand the one executives trust.
The old playbook is broken.
Generic whitepapers don't build trust anymore. Executives are drowning in low-quality content. Meanwhile, AI search is reshaping how buyers discover and evaluate companies — and if you're not cited as a source, you're invisible.
Authority changes the equation. Instead of producing content about your industry, you produce the definitive research for your industry. The kind executives actually read, cite, and share.
When your brand is attached to research that AI models reference, that search engines rank, and that industry leaders quote — you don't need to chase attention. It comes to you.
What a partnership includes.
Every engagement is tailored to your industry and goals. Here's the core of what we deliver.
Flagship research report
A comprehensive, data-driven industry report published under your brand alongside Authority Intelligence. Proprietary metrics, market analysis, and actionable insights your audience can't get elsewhere.
Expert interviews
We interview 5–10 senior executives in your target industry. You get the relationships, the insights, and the content — all under your brand's umbrella.
SEO & AI-optimised content
Every report generates 10–20 derivative blog posts, briefs, and social assets — all optimised to rank in traditional search and appear in AI-powered search results like ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google AI Overviews.
Executive visibility
Your brand appears in front of directors, VPs, and C-suite executives who consume our reports. No cold outreach — they come to you because the research is genuinely valuable.
Relationship-building interviews
Optionally, your leadership team joins the expert interviews. Build direct relationships with industry leaders while producing content that positions both parties as authorities.
Authority score tracking
We track your brand's authority growth over the engagement — AI citation rates, search rankings, report downloads, and executive engagement metrics.
What this means for your business.
Your brand is cited as a source in AI search results
Executives in your target industry read your research

Who this is for.
Growth-stage B2B companies
You have product-market fit but need to build category authority to win enterprise deals.
Enterprise marketing teams
You need high-quality thought leadership that actually moves the needle, not another whitepaper nobody reads.
Industry incumbents
You want to own the narrative in your market before a competitor does.
How it works.
We scope your industry together
You tell us the industry vertical and executive audience you want to reach. We design the research programme around your strategic goals.
We produce the research
Our team generates the flagship report — proprietary data, original analysis, custom metrics. Your brand is embedded throughout as the co-publisher.
We interview the experts
We identify and interview 5–10 senior leaders in the target industry. Optionally, your team joins these conversations to build direct relationships.
We build the content engine
From each report, we generate 10–20 derivative pieces — blog posts, executive briefs, social content — all optimised for search and AI citation.
Your authority compounds
The research drives inbound, the interviews build relationships, and the content compounds in search rankings and AI models over time.
