Jacob Ezra Gerrish
Founder of SEMPITE — AI Search Visibility, SEO, and eCommerce operations consulting
About
Jacob Ezra Gerrish is the founder of SEMPITE, a boutique, founder-led digital consultancy in New York that helps small businesses and personal brands get found in the AI-search era. He brings six years of hands-on experience in eCommerce operations, SEO, and digital marketing, pairing AI Search Visibility work with practical growth execution delivered by the founder rather than handed to junior staff.
Before founding SEMPITE, Jacob spent years in large-scale eCommerce operations — influencing $25M+ in revenue, managing catalogs of 100,000+ SKUs, and driving tens of millions of annual visits across Shopify, Amazon, Walmart, eBay, and Etsy. At SEMPITE he pairs that operator background with a proprietary tool stack: an AI Search Visibility tracker, site crawler, citation checker, press researcher, and privately-hosted AI models, so client data never leaves SEMPITE infrastructure.
Jacob also publishes the AI Visibility Index, a monthly research report on which brands AI engines actually recommend, and runs VisibleActor, a sister brand helping working actors stay visible online in English and Spanish.
