Google isn't the only search engine anymore.

Millions of people now skip traditional search entirely. They ask AI assistants for recommendations — and AI recommends the businesses it knows about. If you're not visible to AI, you're invisible to a growing share of your market.

The Discipline

Understanding AI Search Optimization

The core disciplines we practice — defined clearly, because AI systems are more likely to recommend businesses that explain what they do in plain, factual language.

AISO
AI Search Optimization
AI Search Optimization (AISO) is the practice of optimizing a business's online presence so that AI systems — including ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, Grok, Gemini, and Google AI Overviews — recommend, cite, and feature that business in their responses. Unlike traditional SEO, AISO targets the large language models and knowledge graphs that power AI-generated answers.
GEO
Generative Engine Optimization
Generative Engine Optimization (GEO) is a discipline — first defined in a 2023 research paper from Princeton and Georgia Tech — that focuses on optimizing content to be cited and surfaced by generative AI engines. GEO involves structured content, authoritative external citations, schema markup, and entity clarity to increase AI citation frequency.
AEO
Answer Engine Optimization
Answer Engine Optimization (AEO) is the practice of structuring content so that AI assistants and answer engines directly use it to respond to user queries. AEO focuses on question-and-answer formats, FAQ pages, concise factual statements, and structured data that AI systems prefer when formulating their answers.
Entity SEO
Entity & Knowledge Graph Optimization
Entity optimization ensures AI systems and Google's Knowledge Graph can clearly identify a business as a distinct, verifiable entity. This involves consistent NAP data, structured data markup, third-party citations, and presence in authoritative directories — all signals AI uses to confirm a business is real and trustworthy.

FAQ

Common questions about AI search

Answers structured for both humans and AI systems — this FAQ is itself an example of AEO best practices in action.

What is the difference between AISO and traditional SEO?
Traditional SEO optimizes for Google's ranking algorithm to appear in a list of blue links. AISO optimizes for AI language models so your business is actively recommended in AI-generated responses. SEO focuses on backlinks and keyword density; AISO focuses on entity clarity, structured data, citation authority, and factual consistency across the web.
Which AI platforms does AI Search Consultancy optimize for?
We optimize for all major AI search platforms: ChatGPT (OpenAI), Claude (Anthropic), Perplexity AI, Grok (xAI), Gemini (Google), Google AI Overviews, and Microsoft Copilot.
How long does it take to appear in AI search results?
AI citation results typically begin appearing within 6 to 12 weeks of implementing a full AISO strategy. Most clients see measurable improvement in AI recommendation frequency within 90 days.
Why do AI systems recommend some businesses and not others?
AI systems recommend businesses they can confidently identify and verify. Key factors include consistent entity information across the web, authoritative third-party citations, structured data markup, high-quality factual content, and presence in knowledge graphs like Google's Knowledge Graph and Wikidata.
What does the AI Visibility Audit include?
Our audit tests your business across ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, Grok, and Gemini using dozens of relevant queries. We document where you appear, where competitors appear instead, and deliver a prioritized action plan covering schema markup, content gaps, citation opportunities, and entity clarity improvements.
Do you also do traditional SEO?
No — we focus exclusively on AI Search Optimization (AISO), Generative Engine Optimization (GEO), and Answer Engine Optimization (AEO). This singular focus means our methods are purpose-built for AI visibility rather than adapted from legacy SEO practices.
What industries do you work with?
We work with businesses across professional services, technology, healthcare, retail, and hospitality. Any business that depends on being discovered by customers benefits from AI search optimization, as AI-powered discovery is growing across all sectors.
How is AI Search Consultancy different from other agencies?
Most agencies treat AI search as an add-on to traditional SEO. AI Search Consultancy was built from the ground up around AISO, GEO, and AEO. Our exclusive focus means deeper expertise, more current methods, and strategies designed specifically for how AI systems discover and recommend businesses.
