About

We build production-ready AI.

Websem is the digital marketing and AI agency founded in 2013 by Dan Cristian Alexandrescu, specialising in AEO (Answer Engine Optimization) and GEO (Generative Engine Optimization), headquartered in Bucharest with team members in Turin, Melbourne and Oslo. We build AI platforms, search systems and measurement infrastructure for brands in pharma, retail, automotive and B2B.

— Manifesto

We've worked with Clarfon and Audionova since 2021 — five years, +80% organic traffic and rank 1 on “hearing aids”. For DonaVital we built an AI consultant that sustains 1,600+ unique conversations a month. Every number on this site has a case study behind it; if it doesn't, we don't publish it.

How we work: we define the business metric before writing code, and the first working MVP reaches production in 2–4 weeks, not after six months of discovery. The stack is model-agnostic (Claude, GPT, Gemini, open-source models) and infrastructure-agnostic (AWS, Vercel, self-hosted) — we pick the tool that solves the problem, not the brand.

02 / Values

How we look at our work

  1. 01 / Production-first

    We don't ship elegant POCs that never reach production. Every project is built to run 24/7.

  2. 02 / Measurable

    We define business metrics before we write code. Live dashboard from day 1.

  3. 03 / Direct

    We say when AI isn't the answer. We say when a deterministic rule beats a model. No overselling.

03 / Brands

05 / Independent verification

What platforms we don't control say about us.

A website can claim anything about itself. That's why you'll also find us on independent B2B directories that vet the company and publish reviews from real clients, under their own names. The same profiles are declared in this site's structured data, so answer engines know they all describe one company.
