How AI Is Changing Discovery
Understanding the shift from search to AI-assisted discovery is essential for future-proofing your visibility strategy.
Question-Based Discovery
Users ask AI complete questions: "What's the best CRM for small businesses?" or "Which law firms specialize in patent litigation?" AI provides direct answers with recommendations, often without showing traditional search results.
Conversational Research
Instead of multiple searches, users have conversations with AI, refining their needs and getting increasingly specific recommendations. Brands mentioned early in these conversations have significant advantages.
AI-Curated Shortlists
When users ask for "top 5" or "best options," AI generates curated lists based on its training data and real-time sources. Appearing on these lists drives consideration without traditional ranking competition.
Trust Transfer
Users trust AI recommendations similarly to trusted advisor recommendations. Appearing in AI responses carries implicit endorsement that traditional ads don't provide.
Questions About Generative Engine Optimization
Isn't this just hype? AI search is still small.
AI-assisted search is growing 40%+ annually. ChatGPT has 200M+ weekly users. Perplexity processes millions of queries daily. Google's AI Overviews appear in 30%+ of searches. The shift is happening now, and early positioning creates lasting advantages.
We're already doing SEO. Isn't that enough?
Traditional SEO and GEO are complementary but different. SEO optimizes for search engine algorithms. GEO optimizes for AI training data, citation patterns, and response generation. You need both for comprehensive visibility.
How can you influence what AI says?
AI systems pull from identifiable sources: authoritative websites, structured data, citations in trusted publications, and real-time web access. We optimize your presence across these sources to increase AI mention probability.
How do you measure GEO results?
We track AI mention frequency across platforms, sentiment of AI-generated brand references, share of voice in category queries, and correlation with branded search and direct traffic increases.

The Future of Discovery Is Here
The Reality
AI-assisted search isn't coming; it's here. ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude, and Google AI Overviews are changing how people discover brands, research solutions, and make decisions.
The Opportunity
Early movers in GEO are establishing positions that will be difficult to displace. AI systems develop 'preferences' based on authority signals that compound over time.
The Risk
Companies that wait will face an increasingly difficult competitive landscape. As more brands optimize for AI, the bar for visibility rises.
Our Commitment
We help forward-thinking brands establish AI visibility now, while the opportunity for differentiation is greatest.
