AI SEO Agency
Get found and cited in ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, and Google AI Overviews. One team covering AI SEO, answer engine optimization, and generative engine optimization, measured on the answers your buyers actually see.
What is an AI SEO agency?
An AI SEO agency optimizes a brand's content, technical foundation, and authority signals so AI engines like ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, and Google AI Overviews retrieve it and cite it in their answers. Traditional SEO earns rankings; AI SEO earns citations inside the answer itself, where a growing share of buying research now ends.
marketFX digital runs AI SEO as one integrated practice: crawler access and technical readiness, entity and schema work, direct-answer content, third-party authority building, and measurement of how often your brand appears in AI answers versus competitors.
Buying research is moving into AI answers.
AI Overviews now appear on a large share of Google searches, and assistants like ChatGPT and Perplexity have become the first stop for comparisons, recommendations, and "best of" questions. When those answers recommend a brand, that brand captures demand before a traditional results page is ever seen. When a brand is invisible to AI engines, that demand goes to whoever the answer cites instead.
Most websites were never built for this. They block or underserve AI crawlers, bury answers in marketing language, and have inconsistent entity signals across the web. Fixing that is the work of AI SEO, and it is measurable.
What our AI SEO agency does.
Every engagement covers the full stack of AI visibility, prioritized by what moves citations fastest.
AI visibility audit
We test the prompts that matter to your revenue across ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, and Google AI Overviews, and record who gets cited today.
Technical AI readiness
Crawler access, full HTML delivery, robots.txt signals, and clean indexation so engines can retrieve your content at all.
Entity and schema optimization
Organization, Person, Service, and FAQ markup plus consistent brand data across the web, so engines can verify who you are.
Answer-first content
Definition blocks, comparison pages, FAQs, and topic clusters engineered to be extracted and cited. Built with our content strategy.
Authority and citation building
Digital PR, listicle placements, and third-party mentions, because AI engines cite sources they can corroborate elsewhere.
Share of model measurement
Ongoing tracking of how often your brand appears in AI answers versus competitors. Built with our measurement practice.
AI SEO vs AEO vs GEO: what is the difference?
The three terms describe the same discipline from different angles. Answer engine optimization (AEO) focuses on structuring content so engines can extract it as a direct answer. Generative engine optimization (GEO) focuses on being included and cited in AI-generated responses. AI SEO is the umbrella practice covering both, plus the technical and authority work underneath.
If you are searching for an AEO agency, an answer engine optimization agency, or a generative engine optimization agency, you are looking for the same capability: a team that can make your brand the answer. Our GEO agency page details the methodology; this practice delivers it end to end.
Built for brands that need to be the answer.
We work with multi-location and franchise systems whose buyers ask AI where to go, e-commerce and DTC brands competing in "best of" recommendation prompts, and B2B and professional services firms whose deals start with a research question. Our track record spans enterprise, franchise, and DTC brands across the United States and Canada, and the same integrated model runs every AI SEO engagement.
How an AI SEO engagement works.
Every engagement starts with the audit: your priority prompts, your current citations, your competitors' citations, and the technical and entity gaps holding you back. From there we agree a roadmap that sequences technical fixes, content, and authority work by expected impact on citations. Measurement runs from day one, so you can see share of model move rather than take our word for it.

FAQs
AI SEO agency FAQ
- What does an AI SEO agency do?
- An AI SEO agency makes a brand retrievable, extractable, and citable by AI engines. That covers technical crawler access, entity and schema markup, answer-first content, third-party authority building, and measurement of how often the brand appears in AI answers for commercially important prompts.
- How is AI SEO different from traditional SEO?
- Traditional SEO optimizes for a ranked list of links; AI SEO optimizes for inclusion in the answer itself. The foundations overlap, and strong traditional SEO helps, but AI SEO adds work rankings never required: citation-friendly content structure, entity verification, and measurement of AI answers rather than positions.
- What is the difference between an AEO agency and a GEO agency?
- AEO (answer engine optimization) and GEO (generative engine optimization) are two names for closely related work. AEO emphasizes structuring content for extraction as direct answers; GEO emphasizes earning citations in AI-generated responses. Any capable AI SEO agency, including marketFX, delivers both in one program.
- How much does AI SEO cost?
- AI SEO engagements at marketFX typically start with a fixed-scope audit, then move into a monthly retainer that starts in the mid-four figures and scales with scope. Because AI SEO shares foundations with our SEO, content, and digital PR work, most clients run it as part of an integrated program rather than a standalone line item.
- How do you measure AI SEO results?
- We track share of model: how often your brand is mentioned or cited in AI answers for a defined set of commercially relevant prompts, across ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, and Google AI Overviews, benchmarked against competitors and reported monthly alongside traffic and revenue metrics.
- How long does it take to show up in AI answers?
- Technical and entity fixes can produce first citations within weeks for lower-competition prompts. Competitive commercial prompts depend on authority, and typically move over one to two quarters as content and third-party citations compound. The audit sets realistic expectations per prompt before any retainer begins.
- Which AI engines do you optimize for?
- ChatGPT (including its search mode), Perplexity, Google AI Overviews and AI Mode, Gemini, Claude, and Copilot. The fundamentals transfer across engines, and the measurement framework tracks each one separately because their source selection differs.
