Why Being Visible in AI Search is the New Winning Move

In the past, your highlight video lived on a hard drive—or if you were lucky—on YouTube, buried among thousands of others.
Now?
AI search is scouting.
And if your highlights aren’t optimized to show up in ChatGPT, Perplexity, or even on GoldCleats.ai, you’re invisible to the people who matter most.

⚡ AI Search is Changing the Game

The new wave of search tools don’t just “crawl” the web—they understand content. These systems pull insights directly from video, context from transcripts, and connections from tags and metadata.
At GoldCleats, we’ve built tools to make sure your highlights are:

  • ✅ Discoverable
  • ✅ Tagged correctly
  • ✅ Connected to your verified player profile
  • ✅ Geolocated and timestamped
📺 Why GoldCleats Video Highlights Perform Better

Our video cloud system doesn’t just host your match content—it prepares it for AI discovery.
When you upload footage to GoldCleats:

  • We auto-tag players, positions, and plays using AI
  • Your videos are linked to match metadata (teams, age group, league)
  • You can clip highlights that align with what scouts are actually searching for
  • Our system adds geo-data so regional scouts can find you faster

Your videos don’t just “exist”—they work for you, 24/7.

🔍 How Your Highlight Videos Appear in AI Search

Here’s how it happens in the GoldCleats ecosystem:

  1. Upload Raw Match Footage – From your phone, Hudl, Veo, or other sources
  2. Use Our Editing Tools – Create clips focused on your best moments
  3. Add Tags – Position, skill type, key moments, location, and team
  4. Link to Your Player Profile – This creates a digital identity that AI can trace
  5. Go Live – Your content is now searchable in GoldCleats.ai and discoverable by external generative AI tools

And soon, GoldCleats.ai agents like ScoutGPT will actively surface your content to verified clubs based on match filters, skills needed, and positional gaps.

🚀 What Scouts Are Searching For (and How to Show Up)

Scouts using AI search tools are no longer just Googling names. They’re running prompts like:
“Show me U17 left backs in Texas with high tackle win rate and consistent match footage.”
Or:
“Find me attacking midfielders in MLS NEXT with recent highlight clips from October.”

If your content is:

  • Untagged
  • Unlinked
  • Not verified
  • Or not part of a smart database

…it won’t show up.
But if it’s in the GoldCleats system, you’re in the results.

🧠 Pro Tip: Build a Video Funnel That Works

Here’s a quick checklist to maximize visibility:

  • ✅ Upload full matches (we support up to 90 mins)
  • ✅ Create 30–90 second highlight reels
  • ✅ Tag your clips with relevant actions (goals, assists, tackles, key passes)
  • ✅ Include your name, age group, club, and region
  • ✅ Update your content regularly (recency matters in AI ranking!)
