About

Hi — I’m Ariel, and Vandro Labs is me.

Most agencies in this space won’t tell you who does the work. I think that’s a weakness, so here’s the opposite: my name, my face, and what I can and can’t do for you.

Who does the work

I do. Every one of the 50 audits behind the AI Visibility Index was run by hand, in a clean session, and written down with its date. Nothing scraped, nothing generated, nothing sent to a freelancer.

Vandro Labs is new, and I’d rather tell you that than imply a client list that doesn’t exist yet. What does exist is the work: 50 dated runs across three assistants, 219 quoted sources opened and read one by one, and a method written out in enough detail that you could run it yourself without me.

That’s the honest pitch. In a field this young, a stranger’s CV is worth less than a dataset you can go and check.

Why astrology and spiritual apps

Two reasons, one boring and one not.

The boring one: the sources that decide visibility are different in every category, and knowing them is most of the job. In this niche I already know which forum sidebars get quoted, which “independent ranking site” is quietly ranking itself first, which store listings the assistants lift text straight out of. None of that transfers to fintech. An agency that says it works in every vertical is selling you the parts that transfer — which are the cheap parts.

The less boring one: I’ve had a foot in this world for years — astrology, human design, the whole neighbourhood. I’m not going to pretend that makes me a better marketer. What it does mean is that I read your app’s reviews and your subreddit without an anthropologist’s face on, and I won’t need three calls to understand what your users actually want from you.

How I work with clients

• Written first, calls only if you want one. Findings arrive as short documents and recorded walkthroughs you can re-read at 2am. You’ll never need a meeting to understand what I did — and I’ll never book one just to look busy.
• Everything carries a date. Every screenshot, every run, every claim. These assistants change week to week; undated evidence is decoration.
• I tell you which parts I’ve verified and which parts I’m guessing. Out loud, labelled. You’ll always be able to tell the difference, including when the guess turns out wrong.
• Only work I’d be happy to see described in public. Real strengths, made easy to find and quote: pages on your own site, your store listing, honest placements under my own name. No fake independent sites, no bought reviews, no ghostwritten praise pretending to be a happy user.
• I’ll tell you when it isn’t working. That’s the point of measuring. If three months in the number hasn’t moved and I don’t know why, you’ll hear that from me before you have to ask.

Languages and markets

Client work is in English. I’m a native Spanish speaker, and that’s more useful here than it sounds: assistants answer per language, so a properly localised page is a whole second front door rather than a duplicate of the first. We’ve already watched a machine-translated page get quoted anyway — which tells you how low the bar still is, and how long that will last.
