Common questions
Isn't this just SEO?
No. SEO optimizes for rankings on a results page; AEO optimizes for being mentioned, recommended and accurately described inside an AI answer. Only about 12% of URLs cited by ChatGPT also rank on Google's first page — so your existing SEO doesn't cover you. AEO also works across sources SEO ignores: listicles, review sites, Reddit and Wikipedia.
Can you guarantee ChatGPT will recommend us?
No one honestly can — we don't control the LLMs. We scope every engagement around inputs and leading indicators we do influence: presence %, citations won, accuracy fixes and content shipped. We charge for a rigorous process and cadence, not for outcomes we can't promise.
Do we need ongoing management, or can we just do the audit?
The Deep Audit is a complete standalone deliverable with its own roadmap — many companies start there. If you start ongoing monthly management within 30 days, the audit fee is credited toward it. Ongoing management is where visibility compounds, but there's no obligation.
Which engines do you cover?
Five major answer engines: ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, Perplexity and Microsoft Copilot. We weight them toward where your buyers actually search. Claude and Copilot, for example, matter more for tech-forward and Microsoft-heavy enterprise audiences. The exact weighting is tuned to your buyers.
Is this a dashboard we log into?
It's the opposite. Tools give you a number; AEO-Max does the work — the entity fixes, content and citation outreach that move the number. You get reports and a strategy call, not another login to babysit.
