Your customers are already asking ChatGPT and Gemini for recommendations. We make sure the answer they get is your business not your competitor’s.
37% of customers now start their search with AI not Google. (Eight Oh Two, 2026)
They don’t scroll ten blue links anymore. They ask, and AI hands back one recommendation.
If that name isn’t yours, you didn’t lose the deal you were never in the running.
AI & GEO Optimization Generative and Answer Engine Optimization makes your business the answer AI gives, inside ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, and Google AI Overviews.
Here’s the part that should worry you:
The rules changed. Optimizing only for Google now means winning half the game and losing the half that’s growing fastest.
While customers race ahead, businesses are standing still:
Have already used AI to find a local business or service.
(GrowthPro, 2026)
Have nostrategy to show up in AI search.
(GrowthPro, 2026)
That gap is your opening. The first business in your area to optimize becomes AI’s default answer and defaults are brutally hard to dislodge.
Move now, or watch a competitor claim the spot you should own.
Six steps. Fully done for you.
We show you exactly how ChatGPT, Gemini, and AI Overviews describe you today and which competitors they recommend instead.
We make AI certain of who you are, what you do, and where you serve.
We rewrite your site to answer the exact questions your customers ask AI.
We add the code and open the door to AI crawlers like GPTBot, so AI can read and reuse your pages.
We build the trusted mentions that make AI confident enough to name you.
We monitor where and how often AI recommends you in plain English, every month.
They’re built for enterprise software and national brands. You’re a local business. That difference is everything.
The signals AI uses to recommend local companies your Google Business Profile, your reviews, your consistent local data are the exact things we’ve managed for 17+ years. Most GEO firms don’t even look at them.
So for us, AI search isn’t a bolted-on experiment. It’s the next place we win for you built into one strategy, done-for-you, and maintained as AI keeps changing.
Local-first. Done-for-you. Built to keep you found for years, not months.
When customers ask AI who to call, your business is the answer.
Show up in AI answers while competitors still bet everything on Google.
AI search traffic converts at 14.2% vs Google’s 2.8% roughly 5x. (Exposure Ninja, 2026)
As search shifts to AI, you’re already there.
GEO strengthens your SEO and Google Profile at the same time.
Become a source AI trusts, and the recommendations keep coming.

It’s the work of getting your business cited and recommended inside AI tools ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, and Google’s AI Overviews. Generative Engine Optimization (GEO) shapes whether AI recommends you; Answer Engine Optimization (AEO) makes your content eligible to be pulled into those answers. Together, they make your business the answer AI gives, not just a link buried on Google.
Because AI doesn’t simply repeat Google’s rankings. Ahrefs found that 80% of the sources AI cites don’t even appear in Google’s top 100. AI chooses what it understands, trusts, and can easily reuse which is a different game from ranking. You can dominate Google and still be invisible the moment a customer asks ChatGPT.
SEO earns you a spot in Google’s list of links. GEO earns you a mention inside the AI answer that now sits above that list. You need both: strong SEO is the foundation GEO builds on. We handle them together so you’re found whether your customer scrolls Google or just asks AI.
Yes and being early is the whole advantage. Over a third of consumers already use AI to find local services, yet 88% of local businesses have done nothing about it. AI is also baked into Google Search and Maps today, so this is current behavior, not a future trend. The first mover in your area becomes the default recommendation.
All the ones your customers actually use ChatGPT, Google AI Overviews, Gemini (including the “Ask Maps” experience for local searches), and Perplexity. We prioritize based on where your specific customers are searching.
Heavily especially for local. AI leans on your Google Business Profile completeness, consistent name/address/phone, and recent, high-quality reviews to decide which local business to recommend. Because we already manage these for you, your AI visibility and your local SEO grow together.
We track how often AI mentions or recommends you, which competitors are being cited in your space, and how your “share of AI answers” grows month over month reported in plain language, tied to real outcomes, not vanity metrics.
Most businesses see measurable AI visibility gains within 8–12 weeks of putting the core GEO signals in place entity consistency, schema, answer-first content, review authority. It compounds from there, so the sooner you start, the bigger your lead. (GrowthPro client data, 2026)
It depends on your market and where you’re starting from. Rather than guess, we begin with a free AI Visibility Audit, show you exactly where you stand, and quote only what will move the needle no padding, no pressure.
