Stop Ranking.
Start Getting
Cited by AI.
ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google AI Overviews, and Copilot don't give users a list of links — they give one synthesised answer. We structure your content so AI engines choose you as that answer.
SEO Gets You Ranked.
AEO Gets You Quoted.
Answer Engine Optimisation (AEO) structures your content so AI-powered engines — ChatGPT, Google AI Overviews, Perplexity, and Microsoft Copilot — extract and cite your brand as the definitive source in their responses.
Ranking in Search Results
Users see a list of 10 blue links. They click yours if it ranks high enough. Success = ranking position + click-through rate.
Being the Source AI Quotes
AI gives users one synthesised answer — citing its sources. Success = being cited by ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google AI, and Copilot.
Both — SEO Foundation + AEO Layer
We don't choose between them. Strong technical SEO is a prerequisite for AEO. We run both in parallel for maximum visibility.
6-Stage AEO System
Every stage is fully implemented — not just audited. We build, deploy, and track citation-readiness across all major AI engines.
Citation Audit
We query ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google AI, and Copilot with your target topics to see who's cited now — and why it isn't you.
Question Mapping
We identify the conversational queries AI engines are answering in your niche and map each to a target page on your site.
Answer-First Rewrite
Content restructured with direct answers in the first paragraph, question-based headings, and concise, extractable blocks.
Schema Deployment
FAQPage, Article, HowTo, and Speakable schema built and validated. Every type that increases AI citation likelihood, deployed.
E-E-A-T Strengthening
Author credentials, Organisation schema, external citations, and entity mentions — the trust signals AI uses to verify sources.
Citation Monitoring
We track your brand mentions across AI platforms weekly. Pages not yet cited get re-optimised — included at no extra cost.

Concrete before-and-after changes — real results from a B2B SaaS client within 45 days of AEO implementation.
