Invisible to answer engines
Your brand never appears when prospects ask AI for product or vendor recommendations in your category — even if you rank #1 on Google.

The challenge
Online visibility now includes AI answer engines
Being visible on Google isn't enough. Buyers discover brands through AI chat, AI Overviews, and voice assistants — channels most visibility plans ignore.
No visibility metrics
Teams can't measure AI presence, track competitor citations, or prove ROI from generative search. You're flying blind while budgets shift to AI discovery.
Competitors move first
Early movers are building entity authority and LLM-friendly content while others wait for "AI SEO" to mature — and capturing the citations that compound over time.
SEO vs. GEO
Why generative engine optimization is different
AI answer engines don't rank pages — they synthesize recommendations from entities, citations, and retrieval-friendly content. Here's how the playbook differs.
| Factor | Traditional SEO | AI Visibility (GEO) |
|---|---|---|
| Primary goal | Rank in blue links | Get cited in AI-generated answers |
| Content format | Keyword-optimized pages | Entity-clear, citation-worthy claims & FAQs |
| Authority signals | Backlinks & domain rating | Third-party mentions, reviews, press, directories |
| Technical focus | Crawlability, Core Web Vitals | Schema, llms.txt, structured data, retrieval paths |
| Measurement | Rankings, clicks, impressions | Mention rate, share of voice, prompt-level visibility |
| Competitive set | SERP competitors | Brands AI actually recommends in your category |

FAQ
Common questions about AI visibility
What is Generative Engine Optimization (GEO)?
GEO is the practice of optimizing your brand, content, and authority signals so AI answer engines — ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, and others — cite and recommend you when users ask category questions. Unlike SEO, which targets search engine rankings, GEO targets inclusion in AI-generated synthesized answers.
How is this different from traditional SEO?
Traditional SEO optimizes for Google's ranking algorithm — keywords, backlinks, page speed. GEO optimizes for how LLMs retrieve and synthesize information: entity clarity, citation-worthy content structure, third-party authority signals, schema markup, and llms.txt configuration. Both matter, but they require different strategies.
What's included in the free audit?
You receive the same AI Visibility Audit framework we use in client proposals: an overall 0–100 score, six-dimension scorecard (Brand Recognition, Product Understanding, Competitive Visibility, AI Citations, Content Authority, AI Readiness), a competitive benchmark, per-dimension improvement tables, a clear action plan for what to do and how, and prioritized quick wins — delivered within 2 business days at no cost.
How long until we see results?
Most clients see measurable mention rate improvements within 6–10 weeks. Quick wins from content restructuring can show impact in 2–4 weeks. Full category dominance typically takes 90 days with consistent execution across content, technical, and authority workstreams.
Which AI platforms do you track?
We monitor ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google AI Overviews, Gemini, Claude, Microsoft Copilot, Meta AI, You.com, Grok, SearchGPT, and more — 15+ platforms total, with weekly prompt-level tracking and competitive alerts.
Do you work with companies outside the US?
Yes. We work with B2B and B2C brands globally. AI Online Visibility is operated by Altus Edge LLP, with teams in New Delhi, India and New York, US — serving clients across North America, Europe, APAC, and the Middle East.
