AI Search Optimization SErvices (AEO)/GEO) - Audit & Monthly retainer | Kyran Corcoran
Get named in the answer - not buried under it.
AEO, GEO, LLMO...the acronyms are new and half the advice is guesswork. Strip the hype and the job is concrete: make your business legible to AI engines, quotable by them, and measurably present in their answers. Here's exactly how I do it, what it costs, and what you get.
See where you stand in AI Search.
First, the honest part.
This field is months old. Not me, not anyone can guarantee you a spot in ChatGPT's answers. What can be done, reliably:
Measure
your current presence across engines with a fixed, repeatable prompt set
Remove the structural blockers
crawl access for AI bots, schema, rendering, entity inconsistencies — that make you invisible regardless of content quality
Publish answer-shaped content
engines can actually quote: definitions, comparisons, Q&A, original data
Track movement monthly
against the same baseline, and adjust based on what the data says
Anyone promising more than that is selling certainty they don't have. I sell the measured version - which, in a category full of noise, is the point.
Ai Visibility & AEO Audit
The Audit
Fixed fee: $600 - Delivered in 7-10 days - Yours to keep and implement with anyone.
What's in it:
AI answer baseline
your business run through 20–30 category-relevant prompts across ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, and Google AI Overviews. Who gets named, in what context, citing which sources. Screenshots included.
Content-format gap map
the question-shaped, comparison-shaped, and definition-shaped pages your category's answers draw from, and which ones you're missing.
Competitor citation analysis
which competitors AI engines prefer, and the traceable reasons why (source coverage, content formats, schema, entity strength).
Entity consistency check
whether the web agrees on who you are (site, LinkedIn, Google Business Profile, directories, Wikipedia-adjacent sources).
Technical readiness review
robots.txt and AI-crawler access (GPTBot, ClaudeBot, PerplexityBot, Google-Extended), llms.txt, structured data coverage, rendering, indexability, Core Web Vitals.
Prioritized file list
every issue ranked by impact and effort, in plain language, with enough specificity that any competent dev or writer could execute it.

Ai Visibility & AEO Audit
AI Search Visibility, monthly
From $950/month · 3-month minimum · Cancel after that with 30 days' notice
The audit tells you what's broken. The retainer is me fixing it and proving it moved:
Monthly AI Visibility Report
the same prompt set, re-run, tracked over time: mentions, citations, sentiment of how you're described, competitor movement.
Implementation
of the fix list. Schema deployment, technical corrections, crawl/access fixes. I do this work myself; nothing is handed to "your developer."
One experiment per month
a deliberate test (format, schema, source-seeding) with a hypothesis and a measured result. Retainer clients get Lab findings before they're published.
2–4 answer-ready pages per month
built from your expertise via a monthly 45-minute interview. I structure, format, and optimize; you supply what only you know. (This is content architecture, not ghost-blogging - the expertise on the page is genuinely yours, which is also what engines increasingly reward.)
Who this is for
B2B service businesses, agencies, and product companies that live on inbound demand - and can feel the click-through erosion already. If your buyers research before they buy, AI engines are already answering them. The only question is whether you're in the answer.
Agencies
I also deliver this audit white-label under your brand.
AEO/GEO FAQs
AEO (Answer Engine Optimization) and GEO (Generative Engine Optimization) are related concepts with important distinguishing factors. Read more about the differences between AEO and GEO in The Marketing Lab.
Is AEO different from SEO?
It's SEO's next chapter, not its replacement. The technical foundation overlaps heavily - crawlability, structure, speed. What changes is the target: instead of ranking a blue link for a click, you're making your content quotable and your entity legible so engines name you in synthesized answers. Good AEO work usually improves classic SEO as a side effect.
Can you guarantee my business appears in ChatGPT?
No, and you should run from anyone who says yes. I guarantee measurement, competent implementation of the known inputs, and an honest monthly report. In my experience the structural fixes alone move the needle for most local and niche B2B queries - but I'll show you, not tell you.
How fast will I see results?
Technical fixes can reflect in AI answers within weeks (some engines re-crawl fast, Perplexity especially). Content and entity work compounds over 2–4 months. The 3-month retainer minimum exists because that's the honest measurement window.
What do you need from me?
For the audit: site access and 30 minutes. For the retainer: 45 minutes a month of your expertise on a call, and a yes/no on each page before it ships.
