AEO: win answer engines and AI Overviews

AEO means answer engine optimization. It covers AI Overviews and answer-style results. We treat AEO as part of GEO so you are visible in ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude, Gemini, and Google AI answers.

AEO vs GEO

  • Searchers type both AEO and GEO. We rank for both, but the brand story is GEO.
  • AEO copy on this page captures answer-engine demand without diluting the GEO offer.
  • Same operating system: prompts, sources, schema, citation-ready content, weekly measurement.
  • If a prospect says AEO, translate: we optimize AI answers. If they say GEO, same work.
