AI Search Optimization (GEO)

Get your business found inside AI answers

Search is becoming an answer engine. KeyesCode helps your business appear in ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, Perplexity, and Google's AI Overviews — as the source these systems cite, summarize, and recommend.

The shift

Search is being replaced by AI answers

Your customers are starting their research inside AI assistants. If those systems don't know you, can't read you, or cite someone else, you lose the customer before a link is ever clicked.

Buyers are asking AI, not Google

Search is shifting from a list of links to a single AI-generated answer. If you're not in that answer, the click never happens.

You can't see what AI says about you

There's no Search Console for ChatGPT. Most businesses have no idea how — or whether — AI describes and cites them.

AI is citing your competitors

Answer engines name a handful of sources per response. Today those slots are being claimed by whoever optimized for them first.

Your site isn't built for extraction

Models reward clear, structured, citable content. Most sites bury their facts in marketing copy AI can't cleanly pull.

What we do

Make AI systems choose you

Every lever that decides whether an AI assistant knows your business, trusts it, and names it in an answer — engineered end to end.

Entity & Knowledge Graph Optimization

Make your brand a recognized entity across knowledge graphs and the sources models train on — so AI knows who you are and what you do.

Structured Data & Schema Engineering

Schema.org / JSON-LD for Organization, FAQ, Service, and HowTo so AI systems extract your facts cleanly instead of guessing.

llms.txt & AI Crawlability

llms.txt, sitemaps, and crawler directives tuned for AI agents — pointing them at the canonical pages you want cited.

Answer-First Content Architecture

Restructure pages into question-led, self-contained passages that models can lift and quote verbatim with attribution.

Citation & Source Authority

Earn the mentions and citations across the third-party sources that ChatGPT, Gemini, and Perplexity already trust.

AI Visibility Monitoring

Track how ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Perplexity, and Google AI Overviews describe, cite, and recommend you over time.

Conversational Query Optimization

Optimize for the natural-language questions buyers actually ask AI — not just the keywords they used to type into Google.

Where GEO helps

The AI-visibility gaps we close

The symptoms businesses come to us with — and how AI Search Optimization resolves them.

01

Invisible in ChatGPT and Perplexity

Pain

Prospects ask AI assistants for a provider in your space and your business never comes up — competitors get named instead.

Solution

We make your brand an extractable, well-cited entity so AI systems surface and recommend you when buyers ask.

02

AI describes your business wrong

Pain

ChatGPT lists outdated services, the wrong location, or facts that were never true — and you have no idea where it's pulling them from.

Solution

We trace the sources, correct the structured data and knowledge graph signals, and align what AI says with reality.

03

Strong on Google, absent from AI answers

Pain

You rank on page one of traditional search, but AI Overviews and answer engines summarize a competitor instead of you.

Solution

We restructure content into answer-first passages and add the schema and citations that AI answer engines reward.

04

Local service business losing AI referrals

Pain

Customers increasingly ask AI 'who's the best near me' and the answer never includes your company.

Solution

We optimize entity signals, reviews, and local structured data so you appear in AI-driven local recommendations.

05

No idea if AI even sees your site

Pain

You've never checked whether AI crawlers can read your content or whether models cite you at all.

Solution

We run a full AI-visibility audit across the major engines and hand you a prioritized plan to fix the gaps.

06

Content that AI ignores

Pain

Your blog and service pages read well for humans but get skipped by models that prefer clear, citable, structured answers.

Solution

We rewrite for retrievability — clear claims, sourced facts, and semantic structure models can parse and quote.

How we work

From invisible to cited

A four-step engagement — audit first, fix the foundations, then compound visibility over time.

01

Audit AI visibility

We test real buyer prompts across ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, Perplexity, and AI Overviews to see how — and whether — you show up.

02

Fix entity & structured data

We implement schema, llms.txt, and knowledge-graph signals so AI can identify your business and extract the right facts.

03

Rebuild content for answers

We restructure key pages into answer-first, citable passages and earn the third-party citations models trust.

04

Monitor & iterate

We track citations and sentiment across engines and refine continuously as the models and their sources change.

What's under the hood

GEO is an engineering job

Most agencies stop at content tips. We implement the technical layer — schema, llms.txt, entity signals, and site fixes — that actually changes how AI reads and cites you.

Built and shipped, not just advised

We're software engineers. We don't hand you a checklist — we implement the changes on your site ourselves.

Schema.org / JSON-LD markup

Organization, Service, FAQ, HowTo, and Article schema so AI systems read your facts as structured data, not prose.

llms.txt & AI crawler directives

An llms.txt that routes AI agents to canonical pages, plus robots and sitemap tuning for AI-specific crawlers.

Knowledge graph & entity reconciliation

Consistent entity signals across Wikidata, Google's Knowledge Graph, and authoritative profiles so models agree on who you are.

Answer-first content structure

Question-led headings, self-contained passages, and clear factual claims engineered for retrieval and quotation.

Citation & mention strategy

Earning references on the third-party sources LLMs sample from — directories, publications, and trusted communities.

AI Overviews & SGE optimization

Content and markup tuned for Google's AI search experiences, featured answers, and generated summaries.

Visibility tracking & reporting

Prompt-based monitoring across ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, and Perplexity — what you're cited for, and where you're missing.

Technical site & speed fixes

Clean rendering, crawlable markup, and fast pages so AI systems can actually access and parse your content.

Why KeyesCode

An engineering team that understands how AI thinks

We build AI systems and we build software. GEO sits right where those two skills meet — which is exactly why we're good at it.

Engineers, not just marketers

We implement the schema, llms.txt, and site changes ourselves. GEO is as much an engineering job as a content one — that's our home turf.

We build AI systems too

We develop LLM apps and agents, so we understand how models retrieve, rank, and cite — and we optimize for how they actually work.

SEO and GEO under one roof

Traditional rankings still matter and feed AI answers. We grow both your Google visibility and your AI-answer visibility together.
