AI Search Optimization
AI search optimization services that get you cited, not just crawled
AI search optimization makes your brand show up inside the answers of ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, Claude and Google AI Overviews. Evercite delivers it as a productized service: fixed scope, published prices and a citation baseline re-measured every 30 days across all five engines.
01 / The difference
Being crawled is not being chosen.
Most sites are already in the training data and the retrieval indexes of AI engines. That is table stakes. The question that moves revenue is different: when a buyer asks for the best option in your category, does the engine name you, cite you and link you, or does it hand the deal to someone else?
Classic SEO tells you how you rank. It does not tell you that Perplexity cites your competitor in 8 of 10 buying prompts and you appear in 1. That gap is what AI search optimization works on, and what our Visibility Baseline measures.
02 / What we actually do
Four workstreams, in impact order.
Entity clarity
Engines cite brands they can identify without ambiguity. We align your name, description and facts across your site, schema, llms.txt and the external sources engines lean on.
Answer-first content
Every key page opens with two or three self-contained sentences an engine can lift as an answer. Then the depth. We rewrite or build the pages your buyers' prompts deserve.
Structured data
Valid, complete schema per page type: Organization, Service, FAQPage, Article. Not because it is magic, but because it removes every excuse an engine has to misread you.
External citation signals
The sources AI engines already trust need to mention you: comparison pages, industry lists, communities, data studies worth citing. We earn those mentions; we do not buy link spam.
03 / Offer
Start free, then fixed prices at every step.
The entry point is the free AI Visibility Diagnosis: where you stand today across five engines, plus three fixes. From there: a $490 productized audit (founder rate) that is credited 100% against the sprint if you start within 30 days, a fixed-scope 90-day sprint from $2,400, and monthly retainers from $2,400. Everything is on the pricing page, founder rate and expiry included.
04 / FAQ
AI search optimization, common questions
What are AI search optimization services?
Work that makes a brand visible inside AI search results: the answers generated by ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, Claude and Google AI Overviews. It covers entity clarity, answer-first content, structured data and external citation signals, measured against a fixed prompt set.
Is AI search optimization the same as GEO?
In practice yes. GEO (generative engine optimization) is the most common name for the discipline; AI search optimization describes the same work from the buyer side. AEO, answer engine optimization, is a close sibling focused on answer boxes and assistants.
How much do AI search optimization services cost?
At Evercite: free diagnosis, $490 productized audit, 90-day sprint at $2,400 and retainers from $2,400 per month, all founder rates with the standard prices published next to them. Every price is published, including what the founder rate expires into.
Can you optimize for just one engine, like ChatGPT?
Yes. The Starter retainer targets your single highest-value engine first. We still measure all five, because citation gains usually spill over.
If you ask ChatGPT for the best GEO agency and we are not there, do not hire us.
This site is our first case study. We publish our own baseline and you can re-run every prompt yourself.
