Help AI assistants get your facts right

SEO works to get your page into the list of search results; AEO works to get your facts into the answer an AI assistant writes above that list, or in place of it. Most of the groundwork is shared, so one helps the other. AEO adds plain question-and-answer writing, listings that agree and a regular check of what assistants actually say. You may also see it called GEO, generative engine optimization.

They use what they can find and trust about you: your website, your Google Business Profile, the text of your reviews, directories, ranked lists of local businesses and question-and-answer threads that name you. When those sources agree on who you are and what you do, you are easier to recommend. When they disagree, an assistant may give out an old phone number, or name another business instead.

No. Nobody outside OpenAI or Google controls what their assistants say, and the same question can get a different answer tomorrow, or when someone else asks. What we can do is remove the reasons an assistant skips you or gets you wrong: missing answers, listings that disagree, pages its robots cannot read. Then we show you, every month, what the answers say.

Usually not. Most of the work is rewriting the top of the pages you already have, adding labels and correcting your listings, so your site keeps its address and the search history it already has. A new site makes sense only when the current one has almost nothing to say, cannot be edited, or cannot be read by AI tools at all.

An llms.txt file is a short plain-text summary on your website that tells AI assistants who you are and which pages matter. It is quick to add, and we publish one on our own site. But Google has said its search does not use it, and there is little evidence yet that it changes what assistants say. We add it as a small extra; the real work is on your pages and listings.

The first fixes to your pages and listings usually go live within three to four weeks. Assistants then pick them up at their own pace: those that search the web while they answer can reflect a change within days, while others take months. That is why we ask the same questions every month for at least three months before judging what worked.

If your customers ask in Kannada, yes. Assistants usually reply in the language of the question, and a page that already answers in Kannada gives them your own words to use instead of a rough translation. We write the Kannada and English versions with you, keep the facts identical in both, and check the answers in each language.

Only in part, and every report says so. ChatGPT and Gemini give businesses no count of how often they named you, though Bing Webmaster Tools now shows how often Microsoft Copilot cites your pages. The rest is the saved answers to your list of questions, the visits from assistants such as ChatGPT or Perplexity in your analytics, and what new customers say when your staff ask how they found you.
