AI SEARCH FAQ

AI search optimization FAQs

Straight answers to the questions we hear most about AEO, GEO and AI search.

What is AI search optimization (AEO/GEO)?
AI search optimization is the work of getting your brand found, cited and accurately described in AI-generated answers from ChatGPT, Google AI Overviews, Gemini, Perplexity and similar tools. It covers content, technical SEO, off-site authority and monitoring.
Is AEO different from GEO?
No. Answer engine optimization (AEO) and generative engine optimization (GEO) describe the same work. Different agencies prefer different labels, but the goal and the tactics are the same.
Which AI platforms do you optimize for?
ChatGPT, Google AI Overviews, Google AI Mode, Gemini, Perplexity, Claude and Microsoft Copilot. We prioritize the platforms your buyers actually use, based on your audience and your analytics.
How do you measure AI search success?
We track how AI sees you (mentions, citation rate, share of voice, accuracy and sentiment) and what that produces (AI-referred visits, leads, pipeline and revenue). You get both in a monthly report.
Can our ads appear in AI Overviews, AI Mode or ChatGPT?
In many cases, yes. Ad placements are available or expanding in several AI search experiences. Because we run paid search too, we plan paid and organic AI visibility together and avoid paying for clicks you'd earn organically.
What does it cost, and can we start small?
The AI snapshot is free. The diagnostic is a fixed $500 over 3 to 4 weeks. Ongoing programs start at $3,000 per month. Most clients start with the diagnostic so the plan is built on real data.
