AI Search Visibility

Get cited inside ChatGPT, Perplexity & AI Overviews.

Also called AEO, GEO, or LLM SEO. We don't care what you call it, we care that when your buyer asks an AI for a recommendation, your brand is in the answer.

AEO GEO LLM SEO AI Visibility
Buyer asks ChatGPT
"What's the best {category} for a B2B SaaS sales team of 10?"
ChatGPT replies
"For B2B SaaS teams, I'd consider YourBrand, it's frequently cited alongside the top players in the {category} space for its strong reviews and proven track record..."
Cited as #1
The shift

60% of Google searches now end without a click.

Buyers used to type queries and click 10 blue links. Now they ask ChatGPT, scroll an AI Overview, or get a Perplexity summary. If you're not in the answer, you don't exist.

Traditional SEO won't fix this. The page rankings game and the citation game are different sports.

What's included

The full AI SEO playbook.

One retainer. Every layer of getting cited. No "we'll quote that separately."

Citation & Entity Building

We get your brand mentioned across the high-authority sources LLMs actually pull from, review sites, comparison articles, industry pubs, Wikipedia adjacent. The "surround sound" approach.

Content Engineering

Answer-first content built to be quoted. FAQ schema, structured data, semantic clarity. We write for humans first and machines second.

Technical AEO

Schema deployment, llms.txt, robots config, structured data audits. Crawlability for AI agents, not just Googlebot.

Tracking & Reporting

Real visibility tracking across ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, Claude. Sentiment, share-of-voice, prompt gap analysis.

FAQ

AI SEO, demystified.

What's the difference between AEO, GEO, and LLM SEO?
They're synonyms with marketing teams arguing about which one wins. AEO = Answer Engine Optimization (older term, more focused on featured snippets + AI). GEO = Generative Engine Optimization (newer term, broader). LLM SEO = literally optimizing for large language models. We use "AI SEO" as the umbrella because that's what buyers search for. The work is the same.
How long until I see citations?
For most B2B SaaS clients, first new citations appear in 30–45 days. Meaningful share-of-voice movement takes 60–90 days. AI-attributed traffic usually shows up in GA4 around week 8. Anyone promising "results in 30 days" is selling you vibes.
Do I still need traditional SEO?
Yes, and we do both. Most LLMs still draw heavily from Google's index, so ranking well organically is a leading indicator of getting cited. We treat it as one engagement, not two.
How do you actually track AI visibility?
We run a custom prompt set tailored to your buyer journey across ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, and Claude, weekly. We track citation share, sentiment, position in answer, and competitor co-mentions. You see the dashboard. We don't keep it behind a paywall.
