Who is behind OperStack

OperStack (Oper Stack) is an AI visibility service by Maksim Shchegolev, with a Russian version at oper-stack.ru.

OperStack is run by one person, Maksim Shchegolev, who operates a portfolio of 13 content brands across more than 10 countries. Comparing 1 to 28 June 2026 against 29 August to 25 September 2026, those sites grew clicks from Google by +249%, according to Google Search Console. Every tool on this site came out of running them, not out of a product plan.

Where the tools came from

Every site in the portfolio had the same problem: pages shipped with cut titles, copied paragraphs, hollow sections, dead links and figures nobody could source. Catching that by reading is impossible past a few hundred pages, so the checks were automated one at a time. Fifteen of them turned out to be worth keeping, and those fifteen became the first product. A sixteenth was added later, when assistants started looking for files no human ever opens.

The rest followed the same way. The starter is the project skeleton that already passes those checks. The audit is what we do to a site before deciding whether to invest in it. The AI visibility check is the first two pages of that audit, made automatic and given away so nobody has to buy an audit to learn they have a robots.txt problem.

What we publish and what we do not

Our own sites are on the cases page by name, with the raw numbers, equal 28-day windows and the source next to each one: data from Google Search Console for clicks and impressions (impressions +133% on the same basis), GA4 for visits and enquiries from AI assistants.

We do not publish client domains. An enquiry counts only when a form with a contact was sent, matched to its first visit from an AI assistant in GA4, and a deal is credited to an assistant only when the buyer came from one. If a figure cannot be sourced, it does not go on this site.

The rule behind every report

A number that costs money to obtain does not move a score. Every area score in an OperStack audit is computed from signals anyone can read for free without an account, and each score prints the count of checks behind it so a reader can recompute it. Google Search Console and Bing Webmaster data appear in the written analysis of the larger audit tier, and both are free with the site owner's own account. Paid tools, when quoted, are marked as notes and counted in nothing.

This is not a marketing position. It is the only way a client can repeat the measurement next quarter and see whether the work moved anything.

Frequently asked questions

Who runs OperStack?
Maksim Shchegolev, who owns and operates the portfolio of content sites the tools were built for. There is no agency behind this and no team of account managers: the person who writes the code is the person who answers your email.
Why are six of the ten products free?
Because they were built to solve our own problem first and cost nothing to give away. The gates, the starter, the Claude Code plugin, the MCP server, the AI visibility check and the AI visit counter stay free. Three pieces of code are published on npm under the MIT licence: the gates, the MCP server and the audit engine behind the free check. The paid ones are the parts that take time: our machines run for you, every week.
Do I need a paid subscription to anything to use your tools?
No, and this is a rule rather than a coincidence. Every score in an OperStack report is computed from what anyone can read on a site for free, without an account. Where a paid tool is quoted at all, the row is marked as a note and counted in no score, so you can re-run the same audit yourself and get the same numbers.
Where do your figures come from?
Google Search Console and Google Analytics on our own properties, comparing two consecutive 28-day windows. We show the raw numbers and the growth side by side, we do not publish client domains, and we credit a deal to an AI assistant only when the buyer came from one.
