AEO and GEO services that get you named in AI answers
Answer engine optimization, also called generative engine optimization, gets your company named when people ask ChatGPT, Claude, or Google's AI which product to choose.
Most sites lose the answer before an engine reads a word
Five layers decide whether an AI answer names you. Most sites fail the first two without knowing it.
Access
AI crawlers allowed in robots.txt, main copy present in the raw HTML, an llms.txt file and clean sitemaps. If a crawler can't read the page, nothing else matters.
Identity
Organization, product, and FAQ schema and consistent naming, so an engine knows exactly what your company is and sells.
Quotable pages
A direct answer near the top, figures with their source in the same sentence, and comparison and alternatives pages.
Cited sources
The review sites, comparison pages, forums, and publications each engine quotes in your category, and a plan to appear on them.
Measurement
The same buyer questions asked repeatedly every month, with citation share tracked by engine.
One screenshot of ChatGPT proves nothing
AI assistants rarely give the same answer twice. In SparkToro's testing there was less than a 1% chance of getting the same list of brands on two runs.1
Every Mimetic measurement asks each buyer question several times per engine and reports how often you were named, so progress shows up as a trend you can trust.

Questions clients ask first
Is GEO the same as AEO?
In practice, yes. Generative engine optimization (GEO) and answer engine optimization (AEO) both mean getting cited in AI-generated answers. GEO is searched more today and AEO is growing. LLM SEO and AI search optimization describe the same work.
How long does AEO take?
Crawler access and schema fixes change what engines can see within weeks. Citation share usually moves over two to four months, as new pages get crawled and the sources AI relies on start mentioning you.
Which AI engines do you measure?
ChatGPT, Claude, and Google's AI Overviews and AI Mode. Perplexity and Gemini can be added.
Can you guarantee AI citations?
No one can guarantee what a model says. The audit has a guarantee of its own: if it finds fewer than 10 fixes worth making, you pay nothing.
