01 / The situation

AI answers. And names someone else.

Your customers no longer research only on Google. They ask ChatGPT, Perplexity or Google AI Overviews. They do not click through ten blue links. They read one answer. It names a few providers.

Perhaps you have invested in SEO and rank decently. Still, the AI names a competitor, a portal or nobody from your industry at all.

The problem: AI systems pick their sources by their own rules. If your site is not technically readable, gives no clear answers or your brand is not unambiguous, you do not appear.

Missing from the answer means missing at the start of the decision.

The good news: the rules are not set in stone yet. If you work cleanly now, you secure the spots before they are taken.

02 / What is AI SEO?

AI SEO and GEO: visibility where people search today.

AI SEO, also called AI search optimization, prepares content and data so that generative AI search systems understand it, use it as a source and cite it in their answers. It is not only about the blue link on page one. It is about a place in the direct answer from ChatGPT, Perplexity or Google AI Overviews.

Its core is called GEO, Generative Engine Optimization. Other names circulate for nearly the same thing: LLMO and AEO. We use them interchangeably, because the goal is identical: becoming the cited source in AI answers.

Important: AI search does not replace classic SEO. It builds on it. A clean SEO foundation and consistent, high-quality content are the prerequisite for AI systems to find and trust your content in the first place. In practice: if you do this properly, you win in both worlds at once.

03 / How AI search works

Where ChatGPT, Perplexity and AI Overviews get their answers.

AI search systems do not invent answers out of thin air. They draw on retrievable, trustworthy sources. Understand how they choose, and you can become a source on purpose.

  1. 01 · Retrieval

    ChatGPT and Copilot with web search

    Modern chat assistants retrieve the live web for current questions, for example via Bing or SearchGPT. What gets cited is findable, technically crawlable and thematically unambiguous.

  2. 02 · Synthesis

    Perplexity and answer engines

    Answer engines like Perplexity summarize several sources and reference them with footnotes. Clear structure, precise statements and verifiable facts increase your chance of being named as a source.

  3. 03 · Overview

    Google AI Overviews and AI Mode

    Google summarizes search results directly at the top in an AI answer. Content with good classic rankings, clean Schema.org markup and clear answers to specific questions is preferred.

04 / Causes

Why AI does not name you (yet).

It is rarely the quality of your offer. It is signals that AI systems cannot find or cannot read unambiguously.

  1. AI bots cannot reach your content

    Crawlers like GPTBot or PerplexityBot are blocked, the information architecture is unclear, Schema.org is missing. Then your content is technically unusable for AI systems.

  2. Your content answers no questions

    AI cites clear answers, definitions and verifiable facts. Sales copy and long introductions offer nothing a model can take over cleanly.

  3. Your brand is not a clear entity

    Different details on your website, in directories and in the knowledge graph. AI does not reliably know who you are and what you stand for.

  4. The SEO foundation does not hold

    Without technical optimization, content strategy and authority, AI visibility does not emerge. Google AI Overviews prefer content with good classic rankings.

05 / The path

Four building blocks that make your brand citable.

AI visibility is not a trick. It emerges when four building blocks fit together on a clean SEO foundation. If one is missing, the rest wobbles.

  1. 1Content

    Citable content

    Clear answers, definitions, verifiable facts. In language a model can take over cleanly. Instead of sales copy and long introductions.

  2. 2Entity

    A clear entity

    Your brand, described without ambiguity. The same details on your website, in directories and in the knowledge graph. So AI knows who you are and what you stand for.

  3. 3Data

    Structured data

    Schema.org, a well-considered llms.txt, crawler access for GPTBot and PerplexityBot. So AI bots are allowed to read your site and understand it.

  4. 4Mentions

    Mentions that match

    Your brand appears where AI systems look: in directories and on Wikidata, always with the same details. So other sources confirm who you are.

06 / Services

Six levers for lasting AI visibility.

From the initial assessment to ongoing monitoring, we cover the full path. So your brand gets found in AI search and classic search alike.

Free strategy call

  1. AI visibility audit

    We systematically check whether and how your brand appears today in ChatGPT, Perplexity and Google AI Overviews. Including a competitor comparison and a concrete gap analysis as your starting point.

  2. GEO content and citability

    We create and optimize content so AI systems use it as a reliable source.

    • Clear answer structures
    • Verifiable facts and definitions
    • Language that models cite cleanly

  3. Technical AI readiness

    So your content is technically usable at all.

    • Schema.org markup
    • A well-considered llms.txt
    • Clean information architecture
    • Crawler access for GPTBot and PerplexityBot

  4. Entity and knowledge graph building

    We sharpen your brand as a clear entity: consistent data across your website, directories and Wikidata. So AI systems reliably know who you are and what you stand for.

  5. Classic SEO foundation

    No GEO without clean SEO. Technical optimization, content strategy and authority are the basis on which AI visibility can emerge in the first place.

  6. AI visibility monitoring

    We continuously measure whether and how you appear in AI answers, watch competitors and derive the next steps. AI search is new and needs regular fine-tuning.

07 / Approach

From audit to measurable AI visibility.

A structured, honest process. Without promises that no one can seriously keep in such a young field.

  1. AI visibility audit

    We analyze where you stand in AI search and classic search, find the gaps and prioritize by impact.

  2. Quick wins

    First the fast levers: technical AI readiness, Schema.org, crawler access and obvious weaknesses.

  3. Content and entity building

    We build citable content and a clear entity structure so AI systems recognize you as a reliable source.

  4. Monitoring and fine-tuning

    We continuously observe your presence in AI answers and adapt the strategy as the systems keep evolving.

AI readiness

Sample view
  • Schema.org markup
  • llms.txt
  • GPTBot allowed
  • PerplexityBot allowed
  • Entity consistent
  • SEO foundation
Ready for AI search

Readable first, then citable.

Before good content can work, AI bots need to be allowed to read it. That is why we check technical AI readiness first. Many of these points are quick wins that can be implemented fast. Content and entity follow after that.

Honest over hype: not every effect can be measured exactly today. We work with robust methods and transparent expectations instead of fantasy guarantees.

08 / Why now

The window for early movers is open.

AI search is changing how people find providers right now. If you lay a clean foundation now, you secure visibility before everyone else catches up.

  1. Usage is growing fast

    Buying research increasingly runs straight through ChatGPT, Perplexity or Google AI Overviews. If you are missing there, you are missing at the start of the decision.

  2. Few optimize yet

    Most companies still treat AI search as a side topic. That is your advantage: whoever builds a citable basis early gets established first.

  3. The foundation pays twice

    Clean structure, Schema.org and strong content improve classic rankings and AI visibility at the same time. The work pays into both channels.

  4. Trust is inherited

    Whoever is named as a source in AI answers benefits from the system’s authority bonus. Building that position takes time. An early start creates a head start.

  5. Honest over hype

    AI search is new, and not every effect can be measured exactly today. We work with robust methods and transparent expectations.

  6. From a single source

    In AI search, SEO, content and technology interlock. Because we cover all three, there is no friction between disciplines.

Guide

AI SEO in brief

What an AI SEO agency does

An AI SEO agency makes sure a company is found not only in classic Google search, but also in AI search systems like ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google AI Overviews and Copilot. And that it is cited there as a source.

To do this, it combines classic SEO with GEO, the targeted optimization of content, data and technology for generative AI.

  • AI visibility audit with competitor comparison
  • GEO content with clear answer structures
  • Technical AI readiness with Schema.org, llms.txt and crawler access
  • Entity building and ongoing monitoring

SEO and AI search optimization: the difference

Classic SEO aims to rank as high as possible in the results list. AI search optimization aims to be named as a source in the directly generated AI answer.

The two are connected. AI search builds on a clean SEO foundation and adds citability, entity building and technical AI readiness.

How to measure visibility in AI answers

There is no single official metric like the ranking position used to be. That is why we combine several signals.

  • Systematic test queries across the AI systems
  • Analysis of citations and named sources
  • Visibility in Google AI Overviews
  • Specialized monitoring tools

Transparent indicators instead of false precision

The field is young. We show you traceable indicators and say openly what can be measured today and what cannot.

Free strategy call

What is an AI SEO agency?

An AI SEO agency makes sure a company is found and cited as a source not only in classic Google search, but also in AI search systems like ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google AI Overviews and Copilot. It combines classic SEO with GEO (Generative Engine Optimization), the targeted optimization of content, data and technology for generative AI.

What does GEO or LLMO mean?

GEO stands for Generative Engine Optimization: optimizing content so generative AI systems understand, use and cite it. LLMO (Large Language Model Optimization) and AEO (Answer Engine Optimization) essentially describe the same goal under different names: becoming the cited source in AI answers.

What is the difference between SEO and AI search optimization?

Classic SEO aims to rank as high as possible in the list of search results. AI search optimization aims to be named as a source in the directly generated AI answer. The two are connected: AI search builds on a clean SEO foundation but adds citability, entity building and technical AI readiness.

Does AI SEO replace my classic SEO?

No. AI search builds on classic SEO. A clean SEO foundation and consistent, high-quality content are the prerequisite for AI systems to find and trust your content. That is why the SEO foundation is always included with us.

How do you measure visibility in ChatGPT & co.?

There is no single official metric like a former ranking position. We combine several signals: systematic test queries across the AI systems, analysis of citations and named sources, visibility in Google AI Overviews and specialized monitoring tools. Since the field is new, we work with transparent indicators rather than false precision.

Do AI bots need access to my website?

Yes, if your content is to appear in AI answers. Technical AI readiness includes correct crawler access for AI bots such as GPTBot and PerplexityBot, Schema.org markup, a well-considered llms.txt and a clean information architecture. We check this first in the AI visibility audit.

What does AI SEO consulting cost?

It depends on your starting point, competition and goals. Typically there is a one-off AI visibility audit as an entry point and then ongoing support, project-based or as a monthly retainer depending on scope. After a short intro call we put together an individual offer that fits your needs.

Is it already worth it for SMBs?

Yes, especially for small and mid-sized companies an early start can be a real advantage, because competition in AI search is often still low. The key is a pragmatic start: first a clean foundation and quick levers, then targeted expansion. Instead of large budgets for unproven measures.

How quickly do you see results?

AI search optimization works mid-term like SEO, not overnight. Technical quick wins can take effect quickly, while building citability and authority typically takes a few months. We rely on realistic expectations and ongoing monitoring instead of short-term promises.

What happens in the free strategy call?

Together we clarify where your brand stands today in ChatGPT, Perplexity and Google AI and which levers come first. You get an honest assessment. Whether you then work with us is your decision, in your own time.
