AGNT/01 vs Ottawa SEO Inc.

Two different products. Two different buyers. Honest side-by-side from the founder of one of them — written so you can pick what fits, not be sold something that doesn't.

The honest 30-second read.

// what each is built for · written 2026-05-04

Ottawa SEO Inc. sells traditional SEO + content + custom websites at agency rates. They've been in market 12+ years, have published case studies, and their flagship "Dominate" tier is $7,500/mo. If you want classic SEO done well by a Canadian senior team, they're a strong pick.

AGNT/01 sells an AI workforce + custom website + monthly growth engine bundled. Founder-led delivery, 30-day rollout, capped at 10 enterprise clients. Year 1 cost: $72K. Pre-case-study practice (one published Ottawa client, more coming). If you want one founder running an AI workforce that does what SEO + receptionist + review manager + lead qualifier + follow-up agent normally do separately, that's us.

If your gap is "rank in Google" → Ottawa SEO. If your gap is "I'm losing $50-150K/yr to missed calls and stale follow-up" → AGNT/01.

The full side-by-side.

When to pick Ottawa SEO Inc.

// the honest "they're better for this" list

✓ You want classic SEO + content done by a senior Canadian team with 12 years of track record

✓ You need 17+ published case studies before signing — they have them, we don't (yet)

✓ You're not interested in AI receptionist / AI workforce — you just want better Google rankings

✓ You have an in-house team that handles phone calls, reviews, and follow-up — you only need help with SEO

✓ You're testing multiple agencies on small SEO retainers ($1,500-3,500/mo Starter tier)

When to pick AGNT/01.

// the honest "we're better for this" list

✓ You're losing real revenue to missed calls, slow follow-up, and lost reviews — not just "ranking lower"

✓ You want one founder + one AI workforce instead of an agency staff stack

✓ You want a custom website + AI deployment + monthly retainer in one fixed package

✓ You care about ranking in AI search (ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google AI Overviews) — that's our hero deliverable

✓ You want founder-led delivery on every account — we cap at 10 enterprise clients on purpose

Common questions.

Why are you 24% cheaper at the top tier?

Two reasons. (1) Pre-case-study practice — we're priced honestly for where we are, not where we'll be in 18 months. (2) AI does the labor that traditionally requires a team. We pass the savings to clients instead of scaling staff overhead.

Are you trying to "kill" Ottawa SEO Inc.?

No. They run a solid practice. We sell a different product. Their flagship is "rank in Google + traditional content marketing." Ours is "AI workforce + growth engine." A buyer can pick either and be served well.

What if I sign up for AGNT/01 and don't see results?

Month-to-month after the 90-day pilot. You own your website, AI workforce config, content, and data — cancel anytime, take it with you. We don't make outcome guarantees because we can't control your operations or market — but we define the metrics we'll track together before you sign.

How do I decide between you?

Easiest test: book a free intro with both. Whoever spends more time understanding YOUR business (not pitching theirs) is probably the right fit. We'd rather lose a deal to a great competitor than win a deal we shouldn't have.
