Eve Drum is an AI Search Strategist specializing in the construction and roofing industry. With a background spanning academic research, AI development, and digital strategy consulting, Eve brings a rare combination of technical depth and industry-specific insight to every engagement.
The construction industry built its reputation on craftsmanship, experience, and trust — but AI search engines can't visit a job site. When prospects search for roofing contractors, waterproofing specialists, or construction experts, AI answers before Google does. If your expertise isn't structured for AI visibility, you're invisible at the moment that matters most.
Eve audits how AI platforms currently describe your company, identifies the gaps between your actual expertise and your digital footprint, and builds the content architecture that closes them. No fluff. No vanity metrics. Just qualified visibility where decisions are being made.
Most construction companies don't know what AI says about them until a prospect already chose someone else. The audit delivers a clear, documented picture of your current AI footprint — what's accurate, what's missing, and what's actively costing you business.
AI engines cite companies that publish structured, authoritative, industry-specific content. Eve builds that content foundation — service pages, expert articles, and company narratives that position you as the obvious answer before the phone call happens.
AI search moves fast. Monthly retainer clients get continuous monitoring, content updates, and competitive positioning — so the contractors who figure this out after you do, find you already own the category.
I spent years with AI research teams at Anthropic, one of the companies building the large language models that now answer questions for millions of people every day. I studied Philosophy, Politics, and Economics at Oxford, where I learned to take apart arguments the way engineers take apart machines: piece by piece, looking for the load-bearing structure underneath.
My AI experience soon had me asking a question that nobody in AI was asking: what happens to real businesses when AI becomes the first place consumers go for answers?
The answer, it turns out, is that most of them disappear.
Not because they lack expertise. Not because their work is inferior. Because their digital presence was built for an era when Google rewarded keywords and ad spend. That era is ending. The new era rewards authority, specificity, and the kind of content that only genuine experts can produce.
I chose the construction industry because the gap between real-world expertise and digital visibility is wider here than in any other sector I've studied.
The best roofer in San Francisco might have forty-five years of experience, Diamond Certification, a bonded crew, and a warehouse full of equipment. But if AI doesn't know that, the homeowner asking ChatGPT for a recommendation will never find them. Instead, they'll find the contractor who operates out of a P.O. Box but invested in SEO content.
That's not a technology problem. It's a verification problem. And it's the problem I solve.
I audit how AI platforms currently describe your company. I identify the gaps between your actual expertise and your digital footprint. And I build the content architecture that closes those gaps.
This isn't traditional SEO. It isn't social media management. It isn't content marketing in the way most agencies practice it.
It's AI search integrity: making sure that when a homeowner, a property manager, or a general contractor asks an AI for a recommendation, the answer reflects reality, not just whoever published the most blog posts.
