AI SEO

AI SEO that gets you recommended.

Your buyers increasingly ask ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google AI for a recommendation instead of scrolling ten blue links. AI SEO, also called generative engine optimization, makes you the answer they get, on assets you own.

What we do

What AI SEO services should actually include.

AI Search & Discovery Audit

Where do ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, and Google AI Overviews send your buyers today, and why is it not you? We query the engines the way your customers do, map who gets cited instead, and hand you the gap list.

Engine-by-engine visibilityCompetitor citationsGap analysisPrioritized fixes

Citable Content & Answers

AI engines quote pages that answer questions cleanly. We restructure and write your pages so the definition, the number, and the answer are extractable, for humans first and engines second.

Structured Data & Schema

Organization, Service, FAQ, Review, and Article markup that tells engines exactly who you are and what you claim. Done in your codebase, not injected by a tool you rent.

AI Crawler Readiness

GPTBot, ClaudeBot, and PerplexityBot have to be able to reach and parse your site before they can cite it. We handle robots directives, llms.txt, clean HTML, and fast rendering.

Citations & Third-Party Proof

AI answers lean on reviews and directories. We build your footprint on the sources engines trust (Google, Clutch, G2, industry directories) so the corpus backs up your claims.

FAQ

AI SEO, answered.

What is AI SEO?
AI SEO is the practice of making your business visible and citable in AI-generated answers: ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, Claude, and Google AI Overviews. Where traditional SEO earns you a ranking on a results page, AI SEO earns you the recommendation inside the answer itself. It covers content structure, structured data, AI crawler access, and the third-party citations engines lean on.
Is AI SEO the same as generative engine optimization (GEO)?
Yes, mostly. Generative engine optimization (GEO) and answer engine optimization (AEO) are the practitioner terms for the same discipline. We say AI SEO because that is what most business owners call it. Whatever the label, the goal is identical: when an AI engine answers a question in your category, you are the business it names.
How is AI SEO different from traditional SEO?
Traditional SEO competes for position on a results page. AI SEO competes for a citation inside a generated answer, which is closer to winner-take-most. The fundamentals overlap (good content, clean technical foundation, real authority), but AI SEO adds extractable answer structure, schema, llms.txt and crawler readiness, and a third-party citation footprint. Done right, the same work lifts both.
What are generative engine optimization services, concretely?
An AI visibility audit, answer-first content restructuring, JSON-LD structured data, AI crawler access (robots directives and llms.txt), review and directory citation building, and recurring monitoring of who each engine recommends. If a provider cannot tell you which engines cite you today and why, they are selling the label, not the service.
Do you do AI SEO for law firms and local businesses?
Yes. Professional services are where AI recommendations bite hardest, because a buyer asks "best employment attorney near me" and takes the answer at face value. We do GEO for law firms, real estate, e-commerce, and local service businesses, and it builds on the local SEO and review work those businesses already need.
How long until AI engines start citing my business?
Some engines refresh quickly and can pick up structural fixes within weeks; others lean on slower-moving review corpora and take months. We set a baseline on day one and show citation movement in every cycle, so you are never guessing whether it is working.
Will I own the work?
All of it. The content, the schema, the site improvements, the review profiles, and the reporting all live in accounts and code you control. We are an ownership-first growth agency: if we part ways, everything we built keeps working for you.
