Answer Engine Optimization (AEO)
Prepare your platform to be indexed, cited, and recommended by ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, Gemini, Apple Intelligence, and SearchGPT.
Be the Default Answer in the Generative AI Era
Search behavior is undergoing a seismic shift. Potential customers no longer just type keywords into search bars; they prompt LLM engines for direct recommendations. If your platform isn't structured for AI ingest, you become invisible to modern buyers.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between SEO and AEO?
Traditional SEO optimizes for search engine ranking algorithms to gain clicks. AEO optimizes for LLM vector embeddings and generative search engines (like Perplexity and ChatGPT) so your product is synthesized as the direct answer to user prompts.
What is an llms.txt file?
llms.txt is an emerging open standard (similar to robots.txt) that provides a clean, markdown-formatted overview of your website specifically designed for AI agents and LLMs to read efficiently.
