    What is GEO?

    SEO got you on page one. GEO gets you into the answer.

    AI assistants don't send people to a list of websites. They read the web, weigh who seems most trustworthy, and name a few businesses.

    Generative Engine Optimization makes sure you're one of them. We give AI clear, consistent, verifiable reasons to recommend you: on your website, in your listings and reviews, and across the sites AI already trusts.

    FAQ

    Questions, answered.

    What is GEO?

    GEO (Generative Engine Optimization) is the work of getting your business mentioned and recommended in AI-generated answers: ChatGPT, Google's AI Overviews and AI Mode, Gemini, Perplexity, Copilot and others.

    How is it different from SEO?

    SEO aims for a high position in a list of links. GEO aims to be named in the answer itself. AI engines weigh signals classic SEO often ignores: consistency of your business info across the web, reviews, third-party mentions, structured data and content that directly answers questions. The two work well together.

    How long does it take?

    Foundation fixes happen in the first 30 days. Most businesses start seeing new AI mentions within 30–60 days, with steadier gains by month three.

    Can you guarantee I'll be recommended first?

    No one honestly can. AI answers change from one question to the next. We guarantee the work, track your progress across hundreds of answers every month, and back it with a 90-day progress promise.

    Where do you work?

    Across Canada and the United States. Everything we do is remote, in English or French.

    Do I need a new website?

    No. We work with WordPress, Shopify, Wix, Squarespace, Webflow and most custom sites.
