What is AEO (Answer Engine Optimization)?
AEO is structuring your content so answer engines can extract and quote it directly as the answer. The biggest levers are FAQPage schema, answer-first writing (a direct 2–3 sentence answer before any marketing copy) and clear question-shaped headings.
What is GEO (Generative Engine Optimization)?
GEO is optimizing your brand to be included and cited in AI-generated answers from systems like ChatGPT, Perplexity and Google AI Overviews. It rewards entity clarity (Organization and sameAs schema), authoritative data-rich content, an llms.txt file and trusted third-party mentions.
What’s the difference between SEO, AEO and GEO?
SEO optimizes for ranking in a list of links, AEO optimizes for being the extracted answer, and GEO optimizes for being named and cited inside an AI-generated answer. Modern AI visibility means winning all three layers at once.
How do I rank #1 in AI search?
Audit how AI engines currently describe you, lead key pages with answer-first content and FAQ schema, strengthen your entity with Organization/sameAs markup and an llms.txt file, earn authoritative citations, then close the specific gaps where rivals are cited instead of you.
Does AEO or GEO replace SEO?
No — AEO and GEO build on SEO. You still need crawlable, authoritative pages; AEO and GEO add the structure and entity signals that let answer and generative engines quote and cite you, not just rank you.
How does AI Visibility Auditor measure my visibility?
We ask the major AI engines the questions your customers ask, then score whether — and how favourably — your brand is named, described and cited versus the competitors those engines already recommend, across the AEO and GEO signals that drive those answers.
Which AI engines do you check?
ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, Perplexity and Google AI Overviews, with more answer and generative engines added over time.
How much does it cost?
You can start completely free with a full AI visibility score and no credit card. Paid plans start at $3/week, $12/month, or $6/month billed yearly, and you can switch or cancel anytime.
Is the free plan really free?
Yes — the Free plan is genuinely free forever and needs no card. It includes a full visibility score, up to 5 audited pages and up to 3 tracked competitors. You only add payment details when you choose to upgrade.
Can I cancel anytime?
Always. There are no contracts and no cancellation fees — drop back to Free in a single click and keep every report you’ve already run.
How long does an audit take?
Most audits complete in a few minutes. You can watch progress live and get a shareable report the moment it’s ready.
What is llms.txt and do I need one?
llms.txt is a plain-text file at your domain root that gives AI models a curated guide to your most important content. It’s one of the highest-leverage GEO signals, and the audit flags whether yours is present and complete.
