Get Cited by ChatGPT, Perplexity & Google AI
AEO (Answer Engine Optimization) is how your business gets recommended by AI engines when potential customers ask questions. We implement the technical foundation — structured data, entity clarity, AI-crawlable content — that makes AI engines cite your brand.

What Our AEO Service Includes
A complete technical and content foundation that makes AI engines trust, understand, and cite your brand.
Technical Schema Implementation
Full JSON-LD schema implementation: Organization, FAQPage, BreadcrumbList, Article, HowTo, Product, and LocalBusiness schemas. Structured data is the primary signal AI engines use to understand what your business does.
Entity Clarity & Disambiguation
We establish your brand as a distinct, verifiable entity in Google's Knowledge Graph. This includes legalIdentifier, alternateName, sameAs links, and entity-linked content that resolves brand ambiguity — critical for AI engines that use entity graphs.
AI-Crawlable Content Architecture
We implement llms.txt and llms-full.txt — emerging standards that tell AI crawlers exactly what your company does, what pages to index, and what content is available. GPTBot, ClaudeBot, PerplexityBot all read these files.
FAQ & Direct-Answer Content
AI engines answer questions by pulling directly-formatted answers. We structure your content — FAQs, definitions, how-tos — in the exact format that ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google AI Overviews extract and cite.
Authority Citation Building
ChatGPT and Perplexity heavily weight citations from Crunchbase, Wikipedia, Clutch, GoodFirms, and G2. We build and optimise your profiles on these platforms — creating the external authority signals AI engines use to validate your brand.
AEO Monitoring & Reporting
We track your brand citation frequency across major AI engines, monitor when and how AI answers reference your business, and report on competitive positioning. Monthly reports show exactly where you're getting cited and where you're not.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is Answer Engine Optimization (AEO)?
Answer Engine Optimization (AEO) is the practice of structuring your website, content, and technical implementation so that AI engines — including ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google AI Overviews, Claude, and Microsoft Copilot — cite your brand when answering user queries. Unlike traditional SEO which targets search rankings, AEO targets AI-generated answers. As more users get answers directly from AI rather than clicking search results, AEO is becoming the most important channel for brand discovery.
How does AEO differ from traditional SEO?
Traditional SEO optimises for ranking position on a search results page. AEO optimises for being cited as the source in an AI-generated answer. The tactics differ significantly: AEO requires structured data (JSON-LD schema), entity disambiguation, direct-answer FAQ format, authoritative external citations, llms.txt files for AI crawler access, and content written to answer specific questions rather than rank for keywords. A business can rank #1 on Google but get zero citations from ChatGPT — and vice versa.
Which AI engines does AEO target?
Our AEO services target: ChatGPT (OpenAI) — the most-used AI assistant globally; Perplexity — the fastest-growing AI search engine; Google AI Overviews — appears at the top of Google search for millions of queries; Microsoft Copilot — integrated into Windows and Microsoft 365; Claude (Anthropic) — used by enterprises via API and Claude.ai; and Apple Intelligence — coming to hundreds of millions of iPhone users.
How long does it take to see AEO results?
Technical AEO changes (schema implementation, llms.txt, entity clarity) are implemented in 2–4 weeks. AI engines typically re-index content within 4–8 weeks of changes. For competitive queries, expect 6–12 weeks before you start appearing in AI-generated answers consistently. Brand citation frequency increases over time as you build external authority signals (Crunchbase, GoodFirms, Clutch, Wikipedia) which AI engines heavily weight.
