We were the customer, not the vendor
Preferium began inside an agency running SEO for real clients. For years we ran that work on the market’s autonomous tools as paying customers. Plenty of it we liked. Some of it we could not live with.
About
Search is moving from ten blue links to AI answers. Preferium AI Edge, built by Preferium AS, gives agencies a complete platform to win that shift for their clients — under their own brand.
AI crawlers like GPTBot, ClaudeBot and PerplexityBot do not run JavaScript — they read raw HTML. Most SEO tools were not built for that, and most cannot tell you whether an AI assistant cites a brand at all. We hit that wall as customers before we built the answer.
Preferium began inside an agency running SEO for real clients. For years we ran that work on the market’s autonomous tools as paying customers. Plenty of it we liked. Some of it we could not live with.
The tool we used offered white label — and its own branding kept surfacing inside the supposedly white-labeled panel. You cannot put a client in front of a product that keeps introducing someone else. So the panel, the domain, the emails and the served HTML carry only your brand.
We built what we actually needed: optimizations written into the HTML the client site serves, with no second mode to land on by mistake, and the highest-risk changes re-opened in a real browser after they ship and reverted automatically if the page got worse.
We publish that story in full, including the parts that flatter the competition —read it here.
Everything below is in our documents, and the documents are public. No borrowed badges, no certifications we do not hold.
A finished agreement that regulates what we process on your behalf, and how. It is public — you do not have to ask for it.
Read the agreement No DPO appointedRobert André Johansen is the privacy contact and answers requests about personal data. We have not appointed a data protection officer — we say so plainly instead of leaving it unclear.
Privacy notice EU storage · SCC 2021/914Client data is stored in the EU. Where a provider must process data outside the EU/EEA, it happens under the EU Standard Contractual Clauses (2021/914), and we choose an EU location whenever an equivalent alternative exists.
Subprocessors ReversibleThe engine works autonomously, but nothing is permanent. Every change sits in the panel with a timestamp, and you or your client can pull it back or edit it.
See what is loggedWhat we do not claim
We are not ISO 27001 or SOC 2 certified, and we put no badges on the page that suggest otherwise. We are a small company with a responsible person you can write to, documents you can read before you sign, and a trust page that says plainly which controls are in place and which are not.
The company
Preferium AI Edge is built and operated by Preferium AS, a company registered in Norway. We keep client data in the EU, offer a Data Processing Agreement to every partner, and keep each client account isolated at the database level rather than only in the interface.
The platform is in private preview with founding partners. If you want to talk to a person about whether it fits your agency, write topost@preferium.no or use thecontact form — both reach the same inbox.
Partner registration opens to founding partners first. Join the waitlist, or talk to us about Enterprise — both reach the same people.
