Digital · GEO

Be understood by generative AI.

Generative engines compose answers from many sources. GEO makes sure your business is described correctly, consistently and citably.

What is GEO (generative engine optimization)?

GEO (generative engine optimization) is making a business understandable and citable by generative AI systems that compose answers from many sources. It focuses on a clearly defined entity — who you are, what you do and for whom — described consistently, with factual content that models can trust and attribute.

Capabilities

  • Entity definition

  • Citable content

    Factual, specific pages with clear claims that can be attributed to you.

  • Structured data

    Organization, Service and relationship markup that makes facts machine-readable.

Questions, answered

What is the difference between SEO, AEO and GEO?

SEO helps you rank in search results, AEO helps you become the direct answer, and GEO helps you be understood and cited by generative AI. They share the same foundation — a fast, well-structured site with trustworthy content — and are most effective when planned together.

What is AEO (answer engine optimization)?

AEO (answer engine optimization) is structuring content so that answer engines — featured snippets, voice assistants and AI answers — can extract a direct, correct answer from it. It relies on clear question-and-answer content, concise definitions, consistent terminology and structured data such as FAQ schema.
