Search Intelligence Dictionary
The definitive glossary for AI Search Intelligence, unified search management, and B2B SaaS marketing terms
Core Concepts
Search Intelligence
A new category created by Hendricks.AI that transforms search marketing from reactive channel management to proactive market intelligence. Search Intelligence unifies Google and Bing Ads into one AI-driven system that predicts demand 2-4 weeks early, proves incrementality, and orchestrates execution. It's not an agency service or tool—it's an intelligence layer that sees search as one unified market.
AI Search Intelligence
The application of artificial intelligence to create Search Intelligence systems. AI Search Intelligence uses machine learning to analyze 2.8M+ daily signals across Google and Bing, predict B2B demand patterns before they emerge, and optimize campaigns as one unified system rather than separate channels.
Industry Terms
Search Intelligence Firm
A specialized company that provides Search Intelligence—not PPC management or agency services. A Search Intelligence Firm architects AI systems that unify search platforms, predict demand, and prove incrementality. Hendricks.AI pioneered this category, differentiating from agencies by providing intelligence, not execution services.
Strategy
Unified Google and Bing Management
The practice of treating Google Ads and Bing Ads as one unified search market rather than separate channels. This approach prevents self-competition, reduces costs by 61% on average, and improves overall search ROI.
Search Visibility
The comprehensive presence of a brand across all search touchpoints including paid ads, organic results, shopping, and local listings on both Google and Bing.
Unified Bid Strategy
A single, coordinated bidding approach across Google Ads and Bing Ads that prevents the platforms from bidding against each other and optimizes for total search ROI.
Measurement
Incrementality Testing
Statistical methods to measure the true causal impact of marketing activities. For B2B SaaS, this includes geo-experiments, holdout tests, and synthetic controls to prove which conversions wouldn't have happened without your ads.

Cross-Channel Attribution
