About Tami Halliman

My Story Didn’t Begin with Technology. It Began with a Teacup.

Tami Halliman is an AI educator, Amazon #1 bestselling author of The Ai-Powered Family, and the founder of Found and Verified — an AI visibility audit service helping local professional service businesses show up where their customers are actually looking.

Educator. Author. AI Strategist. Founder.

For years, Tami Halliman owned Kathleen’s Tea Room — a beloved gathering place in Tennessee where women came for the tea but stayed for the conversation. Before that, she homeschooled her four daughters through 12th grade while running an herb store. For over 30 years she led women’s Bible studies, walking alongside women through healing, identity, and purpose. If there’s a thread through her whole life, it’s this: creating spaces where people feel safe to open up, reflect, and finally step into what they were made to do.

Then AI arrived — and instead of being intimidated, Tami got curious. She earned four AI certifications and discovered something powerful: AI could help her do work she’d been putting off for years. Using AI as a writing partner, never a replacement for her voice, she wrote three books including The AI-Powered Family, an Amazon #1 bestseller. That experience changed everything.

While teaching AI to business owners and entrepreneurs, Tami noticed a pattern no one was talking about. The same people learning to use AI tools were invisible inside those tools when their own customers went looking for them. A dentist could use ChatGPT for marketing ideas but disappear completely when a patient asked AI to find a dentist. A law firm could generate content with AI but not show up when someone asked AI to recommend an attorney.

That gap became a focus. Found and Verified is the result — a manual audit service that identifies exactly where a business is missing from AI-generated recommendations and produces a clear, actionable plan to fix it. From a tea room to AI search may sound like a leap. But the mission has always been the same: making sure good businesses are seen, heard, and found.

Why Found and Verified Exists

The Gap Nobody Was Talking About

When AI tools like ChatGPT and Perplexity started answering questions by naming specific businesses, Tami was already deep in the AI education space. She saw immediately what most business owners did not: these platforms were not just search engines. They were making recommendations. And they were making them based on signals most businesses had never thought to set up.

A law firm with a perfectly optimized Google presence could be completely absent when a potential client asked an AI tool who to call. A dental practice with hundreds of five-star reviews could be invisible to a new patient asking for a dentist recommendation. The problem was not the business. It was the gap between how traditional digital marketing works and how AI systems evaluate and cite sources.

“45% of consumers are already asking AI who to hire. 88% of businesses are invisible to it. I work in that gap — and the ones who move first are the ones AI recommends, month after month, to every customer who asks.”

Found and Verified was built to close that gap. Not with automated tools that generate generic scores, but with manual audits conducted by someone who understands how AI systems actually work, what signals they look for, and what it takes to become the business AI confidently recommends.

How I Work

Manual. Specific. Built for Real Business Owners.

01
Every Audit Is Done by Hand
No automated scoring tools. No generic reports. I personally test your business across all four AI platforms, check your directory presence, review your schema, and document exactly what each AI system can and cannot find about you.
02
Reports Written for Humans
Every deliverable is written so a business owner can understand it, a web developer can act on it, and a marketing team can implement it. Findings are organized by priority and assigned by role. No guesswork about what to do first or who does it.
03
Options for Every Situation
If you have a web developer and marketing team, the audit hands them a clear plan they can execute without additional briefing. If you don’t have a team, Tier 3 offers full Done-For-You implementation — the fixes get handled from start to finish so you don’t need outside resources to move forward.
