Snake River Strategies

Snake River Strategies is a discreet, high-end consulting firm that helps business and political leaders take control of what the world finds when it searches for them — and what AI assistants say about them. Founded and led by Gregory Graf, the firm pairs twenty-five years of judgment with agentic AI built natively into the work.

The practice spans three disciplines. Win: search and AI visibility — reputation-grade SEO, Generative Engine Optimization (GEO), and Answer Engine Optimization (AEO) that put the right results first in Google and in answers from ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, and Claude. Defend: online reputation management, crisis communications, and executive and personal defense for the moments that decide careers and companies. Grow: digital PR, earned media, and thought leadership that build a durable authority and a protective moat.

For campaigns and officeholders, Snake River Strategies is a leader in political SEO and political reputation management — helping candidates own their name, their issues, and the AI answer before an opponent defines them, alongside narrative strategy and government affairs. It works with candidates, elected officials, PACs, and political organizations operating where every search result is opposition research.

The firm is also the force behind a growing civic-technology ecosystem. It is the creator of BetterCandidate.org, a national candidate directory built for the age of AI search; The Idaho Voter Guide (idahovoters.com); and Political Potatoes, a fact-driven Idaho political news and analysis platform. Together they help voters find accurate information and help candidates be found.

Clients bring Snake River Strategies their hardest, highest-stakes problems, and the firm answers with creative, bespoke strategy and the technology and connections to get results where scripted firms cannot. Its client work has been featured in the Wall Street Journal, the New York Times, Bloomberg, Forbes, and POLITICO.
