AI search optimization services: get cited by ChatGPT, Claude, and Perplexity
AI search optimization, explained
AI systems don’t rank pages the way search engines do — AI models quote sources they can parse and trust. As an AI visibility agency, we build your AI search strategy around that: structured data and schema, a content strategy formatted for AI-powered search, and entity signals that make your brand legible to AI-driven search. It’s data-driven search engine optimization extended to the places answers now happen — ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, Perplexity, and Google’s AI experiences.

AI Visibility, AEO & GEO — FAQ
What is AI visibility, and why does it matter?
AI visibility is how often your business is surfaced and cited by AI answer engines like ChatGPT, Google AI Overviews, Gemini, and Perplexity. As more buyers ask AI instead of scrolling search results, being the cited source — not just a blue link — is how you get found and trusted.
How do you get a business cited by ChatGPT, Gemini, and Perplexity?
Citations come from a mix of extractable, well-structured content, FAQPage and entity schema, consistent facts across the web, and authoritative references to your brand. Frostbite’s AEO and GEO work builds these signals so AI engines can confidently quote your business.
What is the difference between AEO and GEO?
AEO (Answer Engine Optimization) focuses on winning direct answers — featured snippets, People Also Ask, and voice results. GEO (Generative Engine Optimization) focuses on being cited inside generative AI answers from ChatGPT, Gemini, and Perplexity. Frostbite does both as one connected strategy.
How is AI visibility measured?
It is tracked by how often your brand is mentioned or cited across a set of real buyer prompts on ChatGPT, Google AI Mode, and Gemini, plus your share of those answers versus competitors. Frostbite monitors these prompts and reports movement over time.
How long does it take to start getting cited in AI answers?
Foundational fixes — schema, content structure, entity consistency — can register within weeks, while durable citation share builds over 3–6 months as authority and references grow. AI visibility compounds alongside your SEO and off-site authority.
