Jason Wade
Founder & Lead at NinjaAI
I’ve spent two decades engineering growth at the intersection of technology, marketing, and artificial intelligence, turning complex systems into measurable revenue instead of busywork metrics. My foundation was forged in early SEO, where I scaled Modena, Inc. into a national ecommerce operation before “search” was a department and not yet a discipline. Today, that same technical rigor powers a new category: AI Visibility, the practice of placing brands inside the answer layer where decisions are now made.
At NinjaAI, I design prompt architectures and visibility systems that convert large language models into operating infrastructure for real businesses. My work blends sales psychology, machine reasoning, and search intelligence into a single acquisition system that replaces ad dependency with owned inbound. The outcome is not better marketing. It’s leverage, velocity, and authority that compounds.
If you want traffic, hire an agency.
If you want ownership, build with me.
