Listicles and comparisons
"Best X software" roundups and "A vs B" posts. The most-cited source type for software questions.
AI visibility for SaaS
Get your SaaS recommended by ChatGPT, Perplexity and Google AI.
We're a generative engine optimization agency for SaaS. AI tools build their answers from listicles, review sites, Reddit threads and news stories. We earn your brand a place on those sources, then track which prompts start naming you.
The problem we fix: competitors cited, your brand missing
AI answer · sample prompt
What's the best help desk software for a SaaS startup?
Startups usually want shared inboxes, a help center and fair per-seat pricing [1]. Competitor A is the most common pick for small teams [2], and Competitor B is often named for its free plan [3].

Tracked across four AI tools, the places your buyers now ask for software recommendations.
ChatGPT
Where AI answers come from
AI tools repeat what other sites say about you.
Ask ChatGPT or Perplexity for the best tool in your category and check the sources. They are almost always the same four kinds of page. That's where we work.
Review sites
G2, Capterra and TrustRadius category pages, ratings and review text.
Reddit and communities
Threads where real users compare tools. AI tools quote them because they read as first-hand.
News and industry press
Coverage in trade and tech publications. We earn this through Digital PR.
AI brand mentions
Get on the lists AI tools read.
AI brand mentions start with the "best X software" lists and comparison posts behind your buyers' prompts. We find the ones each AI tool cites for your category and earn your place on them.
- A source map of the listicles and comparisons cited for your prompts
- Pitches to each list's editor, with the facts they need to include you
- Corrections where a list describes your product wrongly or out of date
- Every placement logged in your monthly report, live or pending

Reddit and community presence
Helpful answers from accounts that say who they are.
If you've been pitched by a Reddit marketing agency before, you've probably seen fake accounts and bought upvotes. Moderators spot them, threads turn on the brand, and accounts get banned. We work the slow, honest way.
What we do
- Post from your disclosed brand or team account
- Answer threads where buyers compare tools in your category
- Lead with a useful answer, not a link
- Follow each community's own rules
What we never do
- Create fake or "aged" accounts
- Buy or trade upvotes
- Drop links by default
- Post as a "happy customer" who isn't one
Review site visibility
Show up properly on G2, Capterra and TrustRadius.
AI tools lean on review sites for ratings, categories and real user opinions. A thin profile or a handful of old reviews hands the answer to someone else.
Profile optimization
Correct categories, features, pricing, screenshots and comparisons, so the facts AI tools pull about you are right.
Real-customer review campaigns
We help you ask real customers for reviews, within each platform's guidelines. Never fake or improperly incentivized reviews.
Tracking
See your share of AI answers, month by month.
We run a fixed set of buyer prompts every month and record who gets named. You see your share of tracked prompts by AI tool, next to your competitors.
- Prompts that matterChosen with your team from real buyer questions.
- Sources behind each answerSo you can see which placement moved which prompt.
- Page-fix notesWhen your own page blocks a citation, we tell your team.

What's the difference between GEO and SEO?
SEO gets your pages ranked in Google's results. Generative engine optimization (GEO) gets your brand named inside AI answers. Both depend heavily on what other sites say about you, which is the part we handle. Your own pages and technical SEO stay with your team or agency.
Is AEO the same as GEO?
Mostly. Answer engine optimization (AEO) is the older term, first used for featured snippets and voice answers. GEO usually means AI tools such as ChatGPT and Perplexity. Our AEO services and GEO services are the same work: earn mentions on the sources those tools quote.
How long until AI tools mention us?
Tools that search the web live, such as Perplexity and Google AI Overviews, can pick up a new placement within weeks. Answers drawn from training data change more slowly. We report what moved every month, so you can see it prompt by prompt.
Can you guarantee AI citations?
No. No one controls what an AI tool says. We guarantee the work: the placements in your plan, the prompts we track and an honest monthly report.
Do you change our website?
No. We work off-site only. If one of your pages is holding back a citation, we send a short page-fix note for your team.
Can we start without a retainer?
Yes. The AI Visibility Audit is a one-time $1,000 project. If you move to a retainer, we credit the fee.
Find out which prompts your competitors own.
The AI Visibility Audit runs 30 to 50 buyer prompts across 4 AI tools and shows where you're missing. $1,000, credited toward a retainer.
