The Overview, running on a live demo property.
Every Sophisticated ConsumerUses AI TodayDon't Be Left Behind
45% of B2B buyers used generative AI during a recent purchase (Gartner, 2026). The answer names a few brands — and the brands left out never know.
The platform
Scale Your AEONot Your Workload
One property, every engine, every question — measured, diagnosed and re-measured on a schedule. These are real screens from the product.
01
The Overview
Four scores, one screen, every arrow explained.
Visibility index, sentiment, average position and Share of AI Voice — each card names its denominator, and a failed engine call is disclosed, never counted as a zero.
Learn more02
Every Question, Scored
20 to 100 buyer questions, per-engine outcomes.
Each tracked question shows who wins it, on which engine, at what rank — filterable by engine, question type and journey phase, exportable to CSV.

03
Receipts, Not Vibes
Open the stored answer behind any score.
Click a question and read the full AI answer it was scored from — engine, model as the provider reports it, timestamp, grounding flag, and the exact sentences that named each brand, highlighted.

04
Competitors, Tracked
Their share and yours, from the same answers.
Add a competitor by domain and score them retroactively from answers you already stored. Mention-rate movement doubles as a control group: if the whole field moved, we say so.

05
Movement, Proven
Month over month, like for like, attributed honestly.
Re-runs re-ask your approved questions, so every delta compares the same thing. When two runs aren't comparable, the report says “we can't attribute it” instead of guessing.

06
The Plan, Executed
Every loss becomes a work item with a target.
Content briefs tied verbatim to lost questions, the exact roundups to enter, schema to add — prioritized for 90 days. On Command, we execute it and the next run grades us.

Past the chart
We Not Only Give you the DataWe Solve Your Problems
Most visibility tools stop at a score. Every AEOSearch report ends in work: the diagnosis names the gap, the plan turns it into items, and on Command we execute them — then the next run grades the result, on the record.
Content gap
You don't have a page that actually answers the question.
Fix: publish the page that's missing, titled the way buyers actually ask it.
Format gap
The content exists, but not in a shape the AI can lift — no table, no list, no clean structure.
Fix: rebuild the page as a comparison table or ranked list the AI can quote directly.
Authority gap
The AI is citing a third-party "best X" roundup, and you're not listed in it.
Fix: get listed in the specific roundup the AI is already citing.
Diagnosed with evidence
For every lost question we fetch the page the AI actually cited and attach it to the fix — symptom, cause, action, in one chain.
Executed on Command
On the $950/mo tier we do the work — content, placements, schema — with every outreach contact human-approved and every placement disclosed.
Applied with receipts
Where a change is applied to a store, it carries a recorded opt-in, a rollback token, and disclosure on the report itself. A change that can't be undone doesn't ship.

How it works
- 01
We generate your questions — you approve them
Claude writes buyer-intent questions across four types: best-of, comparison, problem-led, and category-explainer. 20 on the one-time audit, up to 100 on subscription plans — and you review every one before anything runs.
- 02
We ask the answer engines, grounded
Each question goes to every engine on your tier — ChatGPT and Gemini on the free scorecard; ChatGPT, Claude and Gemini on the $199 audit; all five on Full Coverage — three times each, with live web search on. The free scorecard answers ChatGPT on its fast model; the $199 audit answers everything your free run didn't already cover on the frontier ones, and Gemini answers on 3.6 Flash for everyone.
- 03
We measure your Share of AI Voice
We extract every brand mention and cited domain from every stored answer. Then we compute six metrics: Share of AI Voice, mention rate, average rank, recommendation rate, citation share, and volatility.
- 04
We tell you why you lose — then fix it
For every question a competitor wins and you don't, we fetch the page the AI actually cited, classify why — content, format, authority, freshness, or schema — and turn the fix into a work item on your plan.
What we measure
- Mention rate
- How often your brand comes up at all, across every sample.
- Share of AI Voice
- Your mentions divided by every tracked brand's mentions — your actual slice of the answer.
- Average rank
- Where you land among the brands named, on the samples where you show up.
- Recommendation rate
- How often a mention is a real endorsement, not just a name-check.
- Citation share
- How many of the sources the AI cited are yours.
- Volatility
- How much the 3 samples disagreed — shown, not hidden.
- Unprompted visibility
- Your numbers on questions that name no tracked brand — the way a cold buyer asks. Questions that name you or a competitor are scored separately, so they never inflate it.
- Source Map
- Every domain the engines cited, ranked by how many answers cited it — the sources that actually decide your category's answers, and your outreach list for getting into them.
- Recognition ladder
- Mention rate by question specificity, from branded questions down to fully generic ones. The deepest rung where you're still named is your recognition boundary.
The agents
Revolutionary Agents Fighting for YouWe HelpYou Win
Our agents run the audit end to end: they write your buyer questions, ask every engine with live search on, extract each mention, and diagnose every loss down to the page the engine cited. The scores themselves are computed in the open — pure, unit-tested math. You read the receipts.

Spec sheet
- Sampling
- 3 answers per question per engine — a single run can't tell signal from noise. When samples disagree, the report says so; volatility is a metric, never averaged away.
- Grounding
- Live web search on every query. An ungrounded answer measures training data, not the live assistant — so each answer carries its grounded flag.
- Idempotency
- Every (question, engine, sample) unit runs exactly once. Interrupted runs resume; plan upgrades top up in place instead of starting over.
- Traceability
- Every number on the report links back to a stored raw answer you can open and read.
- Engine layer
- All five assistants sit behind one interface. When the next answer engine matters to buyers, adding it is a registry entry, not a rewrite.
- Throughput
- Up to 1,500 grounded answers a month on Command — 100 questions × 5 engines × 3 samples, re-run automatically.
We're new to this market on purpose — the instrument is built for how answer engines work now, not retrofitted from an SEO rank tracker. Same class of results, a fraction of the price, live from day one.
Why “AEOSearch”
Search moved into the answer. So did we.
Twenty years ago the question was “does Google rank you?” — and the businesses that answered it early won a decade of customers. Today your buyers ask ChatGPT, Gemini and Perplexity, and the answer names three brands instead of ten blue links. Same problem — be the answer when a buyer asks — new mechanism. We measure the new mechanism directly.
Then
Ten blue links and rank trackers — and an industry that earned its snake-oil reputation selling promises nobody could verify.
Now
One answer, a few brands named, sources cited. Your share of those answers is directly measurable — and most brands have never measured it.
The difference
No promises, no black-box visibility index. Every number is computed from stored AI answers you can read — and we run this instrument on our own brands before we sell it to you.
Methodology
We Always Tell youTruth
No guaranteed rankings. No invented statistics. No black-box score you have to take on faith. The report is built to be checked — here's what that costs us, and why it's worth it.
Every number traces to an answer
Each score links back to a stored AI answer you can open and read. Nothing is aggregated into a black-box index you have to take on faith.
Grounded, and labeled
An ungrounded answer only reflects what the model memorized in training, not what a buyer sees today. We run every question with live web search on and label each answer grounded or not.
Volatility, shown
Each question runs 3 times per engine, because AI answers vary. When the samples disagree, the report says so instead of averaging the disagreement away.
Outages are never zeros
A failed engine call is stored as a failure and disclosed on the report — it is excluded from every metric, because our outage must never read as your invisibility.
Advertising is a BattleWe Love to Win
High stakes, kept honest: every win and every loss on your report traces to a stored answer you can read.

Straight answers
All questions →Is this SEO?
No. SEO optimizes for search engine rankings; AEOSearch measures whether AI assistants mention and recommend you when they answer a buyer's question directly, and diagnoses what is standing in the way. The two overlap — the pages that win AI citations are often well-structured, authoritative pages — but ranking first on Google doesn't guarantee an AI assistant cites you.
Who is AEOSearch built for?
Small and medium-sized businesses, first and deliberately. The enterprise AI-visibility platforms sell contracts behind demo calls and onboarding weeks; we built the same class of measurement — grounded queries, per-engine breakdowns, evidence-backed diagnosis — to be self-serve and priced for teams without an enterprise budget. We're a young company growing our brand the same way we tell you to grow yours: by proving value, run after run. Working with businesses like yours is exactly how we plan to do it.
Which AI engines do you query?
ChatGPT and Gemini on the free scorecard; ChatGPT, Claude and Gemini on the $199 audit; all five on Full Coverage. Every answer is grounded with live web search. The free scorecard answers ChatGPT on its fast model; the $199 audit answers everything the free run did not already cover on the frontier models — GPT-5.6 Sol, Claude Sonnet 5 and Gemini 3.6 Flash. Perplexity and Grok, where a plan includes them, answer on Sonar and Grok 4.3. Gemini answers on 3.6 Flash on every tier, free included. Each report names which models each engine answered on, wherever the provider's stored response records one. The engine layer is built to add assistants as they matter to buyer research.
Why do results vary between runs?
Because AI answers are probabilistic, not lookups. We ask each question 3 times per engine and report when the samples disagreed instead of averaging it away — that's the volatility metric. Treat every report as a dated snapshot, not a permanent score.
One-time or monthly — which should I pick?
One-time if you want a diagnosis: $199 runs the full 20-question audit on ChatGPT, Claude and Gemini. Everything your free scorecard did not already cover is answered on the frontier models — GPT-5.6 Sol, Claude Sonnet 5 and Gemini 3.6 Flash — and the answers you already have are kept rather than re-asked. $450 covers all five engines. Monthly if you want the number to move: Track ($249/mo) re-runs 20 questions across all five engines every month with a movement delta, Grow ($495/mo) widens that to 50 questions, and Command ($950/mo) runs 100 questions and includes implementation — we execute the fix plan for you. Every path starts with the same free scorecard.

Models charge what they want
We pay retail for every grounded answer, across five AI engines, and read the bill line by line. The lesson: a model's per-token price tells you almost nothing, because the model decides how much of your money to spend on each question.

Our empty wallet is not your zero
We audited 160 of our own failed engine calls. 64% were us: credit and quota, not the engines. Here is what we built so a vendor's outage can never be sold to you as your invisibility.

Which model answered? That decides the score
ChatGPT is not one thing. It is a family of models with measurably different search habits, and a visibility score that will not name the model behind it is not a measurement. It is a vibe with a decimal point.
