What AEO + GEO does
The work, broken into pieces your team can review.
- 01 Page-level scoring
Each URL scored against ten checks: extractable answer blocks, entity references, definitional clarity, citation density, and the structural signals AEO/GEO actually weighs.
- 02 Rewrite prompts
Where a page falls short, drafted rewrite prompts ship in the queue. Copy them straight into Content at Scale or hand them to your writer.
- 03 Citation-ready blocks
Source blocks that AI engines treat as authoritative: quotation-formatted, entity-named, and structurally clean.
- 04 Coverage map
Which queries your site answers well, which it answers poorly, and which it does not answer at all, mapped against your category.
Where AEO + GEO sits in Marketing AI.
Categories where buyers research with AI: B2B SaaS, professional services, healthcare, education, and high-consideration consumer purchases.
Common questions
AEO + GEO - what people ask first.
Does AEO actually matter for SEO?
For most categories, yes - and increasingly so. AI overviews now appear on a meaningful share of high-intent queries, and the pages cited are often not the same pages that rank #1 traditionally. Optimizing for both pays.
How is GEO different from AEO?
AEO (Answer Engine Optimization) targets engines that summarize answers across sources. GEO (Generative Engine Optimization) targets generative search interfaces specifically. The structural fixes overlap heavily, but the scoring weights differ.
Can you tell if my page is being cited?
For some answer engines, yes. Citation tracking is partial today and improving as APIs mature. The score is the leading indicator; citations are the lagging one.
What about schema for AEO?
Schema and AEO interact. FAQPage, HowTo, and Article schema all weight into AEO scoring. Schema Validation and AEO + GEO pair under the same approval queue.
