The process

Two phases: first we diagnose, then we improve.

AEO-Max runs in two connected phases. The Audit shows you exactly how AI describes your firm today and where you're losing to competitors. The Improvement Program then fixes the foundations and compounds your visibility month over month.

Phase 1

The AEO Audit

Free Snapshot · Deep Audit $1,500

A repeatable diagnostic — not software — that produces a scored report and a prioritized roadmap. It's the front door: it creates urgency by showing you, in AI's own words, that you're being misdescribed or ignored.

Gather inputs

Your brand, core services, top 3–5 competitors, target geographies, and the 15–30 real questions your buyers ask — pulled from sales calls, support and your own team.

Build the prompt set

25–40 prompts across five buyer intents: category/discovery, branded, use-case, comparison, and trust/objection — run across five engines (ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, Perplexity and Copilot), weighted to the ones your buyers use most.

Score five dimensions

Every prompt is scored for presence, share of voice, accuracy, sentiment and citation sources — rolled into a single 0–100 AEO Visibility Score. Engines that expose their sources natively make citation scoring direct; for Claude we verify sources manually so the score stays consistent.

Benchmark competitors

The same prompts run for your top competitors. "They're recommended in 68% of answers; you're in 12%" is the slide that reframes everything.

Deliver the report

A tight, visual report: your score, real screenshots of what AI says, the accuracy issues, your citation gap, and a roadmap of 8–15 fixes ranked by impact × effort.

Transparent weighting, held identical across every audit — so month-over-month deltas are genuinely comparable.

Phase 2

The Improvement Program

Foundation Sprint $4,000 · Ongoing Monthly Management $2,000/mo

Every audit finding maps to one of five levers. The program turns "here's your score" into "here's the work" — first a sprint to fix the foundations, then ongoing monthly management that compounds.

1. Entity foundation

Establish a clean "entity home" and align Wikidata, Crunchbase, LinkedIn and your Business Profile so machine-readable facts agree everywhere and the model stops hedging.

2. Content

Answer-shaped pages, comparison and "alternatives" content, and original data pages that directly answer buyer questions in the Q&A format LLMs love to lift.

3. Citations & digital reputation

The highest-leverage work: getting you into the third-party listicles, review sites and communities the engines actually cite — plus digital PR for authoritative mentions.

4. Technical accessibility

Schema, crawlability, llms.txt and AI-crawler access so the engines can cleanly read and trust your pages.

5. Measurement

Re-run the same prompt set every month, report the delta — presence gained, citations won, accuracy fixed — and set the next month's priorities.

The Foundation Sprint fixes the one-time foundations in 3–4 weeks and ends with a re-score. Ongoing monthly management keeps the compounding going.

The bridge

Every finding maps to a workstream

Nothing in the audit is abstract. Each issue we find points directly at the work that fixes it.

Low presence in category answers

→ Content + Citations

Wrong or outdated facts in answers

→ Entity foundation + Content

Absent from cited listicles & review sites

→ Citations & digital PR

Not in the consideration set vs. competitors

→ Comparison content + Citations

Negative framing ("expensive / limited")

→ Content reframing + Reviews

No schema · AI crawlers blocked · no llms.txt

How a management month runs

A predictable monthly cadence

The program runs like a product, not a mystery. Each month follows the same rhythm so you always know what's shipping and what it moved.

Week 1

Re-score

Re-run the full prompt set across your engines and capture the month's deltas.

Weeks 2–3

Ship actions

Execute the highest-impact fixes: content, citation outreach, entity and schema work.

Week 4

Report & call

Deliver the monthly report — wins, work shipped, what's next — and one strategic recommendation on a call.

A team reviewing strategy charts on a whiteboard

A repeatable program, not a one-off project

Re-score, ship the highest-impact fixes, report the delta — the same rhythm every month.
