Generative Engine Optimization

Generative Engine Optimization (GEO) for the AI Search Era

When buyers ask ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity or Claude for recommendations, which brands do they hear? GEO improves how often and how accurately generative AI engines mention, cite and describe you.

  • Recommended by AI
  • Accurate descriptions
  • Citable authority

Overview

Visibility inside the answer, not just below it

Generative engines combine information from many sources to write a single answer. They tend to cite and mention sources that are clearly structured, consistent, specific and corroborated elsewhere on the web. If your brand is missing, outdated or described inconsistently across those sources, it is less likely to be recommended.

Generative Engine Optimization (GEO) works on both your own content and your wider footprint. On your site, we publish citable facts, original data, clear comparisons and expert explanations in crawlable HTML. Off-site, we strengthen consistent brand information across directories, reviews, industry publications and community platforms that AI systems draw on.

We measure progress by testing a defined set of prompts across major AI assistants over time, tracking mentions, citations, sentiment and accuracy — and correcting misinformation where we find it.

Generative Engine Optimization (GEO) FAQ

Generative Engine Optimization (GEO) — frequently asked

Answers to common questions about our generative engine optimization (geo) services.

What is Generative Engine Optimization (GEO)?

GEO is the practice of improving how often and how accurately generative AI systems — such as ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, Perplexity and Google AI Overviews — mention, cite and recommend a brand in their answers.

How is GEO different from AEO?

AEO focuses on being the direct answer to specific questions. GEO is broader: it covers brand mentions, recommendations and citations inside AI-generated responses, including comparisons and shortlists.

How do you measure GEO?

We define a set of relevant prompts, test them across major AI assistants on a schedule and track mentions, citations, sentiment and accuracy over time. Results vary by model and session, so we look at trends.

Does traditional SEO still matter for GEO?

Yes. Many AI systems retrieve information from search indexes and well-ranked pages, so strong SEO remains a foundation for GEO.

Can you guarantee ChatGPT will recommend us?

No agency can guarantee rankings or citations in AI answers, because search engines and AI providers control their own systems. We commit to proven practices, transparent reporting and continuous improvement.
