Three fixes

1. Get listed on capterra.com

capterra.com was cited in 10 sampled answers that named Wave, FreshBooks, and Invoice Ninja and did not name Ledgerloop. That page is part of what the models are reading. Ask for inclusion, or publish a clearer page they can cite instead.

2. Gemini names Wave more often than you

Wave showed up in 100% of Gemini samples this week. You showed up in 40%. Publish a comparison titled "Ledgerloop vs Wave" that answers "What is the best invoicing software for a small team?" in the title and the first paragraph.

3. Gemini mentioned you less than last week

Your mention rate moved from 70% to 40% (-30 pts). Questions with no mention of you: "What is the best invoicing software for a small team?"; "Best invoicing software for an indie SaaS in 2026".
