How to get cited by AI search (AEO and GEO)

More buyers ask ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google’s AI for a shortlist before they ever reach your site. We help you become the source those answers point to.

Get StartedWhat is a linkable asset

AEO (answer engine optimization) is making your content easy for search and AI to lift as a direct answer. GEO (generative engine optimization) is getting your brand cited and recommended by generative AI like ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google’s AI Overviews. Both reward the same thing: being a trusted source that gets referenced often. That’s exactly what a linkable asset makes you.

Why this fits

Linkable assets are an AI search play

AI models recommend brands they see cited often and credibly across the web. There’s no shortcut to that. You earn it the same way you earn links.

  • AI leans on sources that are cited and trusted, not bought placements
  • Original data and clear answers are the most quotable thing you can own
  • Every earned citation teaches the models that you’re a real source
  • You become a primary reference, not a footnote
The shift

Search is becoming an answer

People used to scan ten blue links. Now they read one answer, and that answer cites a handful of sources. The brands inside those citations win the click and the trust. The ones that bought their way up are nowhere to be found.

Good to know

AEO and GEO questions, answered

What’s the difference between AEO and GEO?
AEO, answer engine optimization, is about being the direct answer in search and answer boxes. GEO, generative engine optimization, is about getting your brand cited and recommended inside generative AI like ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google’s AI Overviews. They overlap heavily, and the same trust signals drive both.
Does this replace SEO?
No, it builds on it. The same things that earn rankings, useful content and credible links, are what get you cited by AI. If you’re doing SEO right, you’re already most of the way to AEO and GEO.
How do I actually show up in ChatGPT or Perplexity?
Be cited across the web by sources those models trust, answer the questions your buyers ask in clear and quotable language, and structure your content so it’s easy to lift. Earning links and citations is the core of it, which is exactly what a linkable asset does.
How long does it take?
It builds as your citations grow, on the same durable timeline as link building. The more often credible sites reference you, the more often AI does too.
