AEO Agency & AEO Services That Get Your Brand Cited by AI.
Your buyers now ask ChatGPT, Google AI Overviews and Perplexity who to hire. RANKMETRY makes sure the answer names you, not your competitor.
- AI Search Optimization
- Entity Optimization
- Technical AEO
- Citation Tracking
The strongest AEO strategies combine useful answers, structured information and trusted brand authority. RANKMETRY approaches AEO through entity optimization, schema, E-E-A-T and ongoing AI visibility monitoring.
Your Buyers Stopped Clicking. Are You in the Answer?
Zero-click search is here. When Google shows an AI summary, people click far fewer links, and the brands named inside the answer win the attention first. If that's your competitor, you lose the lead before they ever see your site.
Fewer clicks
Clicks on regular results nearly halve when an AI summary appears.
Links ignored
Only 1% of visits clicked a link inside the AI summary itself.
Searches end there
More people end their session after an AI summary, against 16% without one.

How Much Do AEO Services Cost?
Specialist AEO agencies in the US typically charge about $3,000 to $15,000 per month, based on published agency pricing we reviewed in October 2026. Your price depends on site size, competition, the engines you need and your technical starting point.
We scope every plan after your AI visibility audit, so you only pay for what moves your citations. Be wary of "full AEO" quotes far below market. They're usually repackaged SEO.

Questions About Our AEO Services
What exactly is Answer Engine Optimization (AEO)?
Answer Engine Optimization is the process of optimizing content, technical structure, entities and brand authority so AI-powered search platforms can understand a brand and reference it when answering relevant questions. It focuses on being the cited source inside an answer, not only a ranked link.
How is AEO different from traditional SEO?
Traditional SEO focuses on organic rankings and clicks. AEO extends that work toward AI-generated answers, conversational search and citations. The two share a foundation, so a site with weak SEO rarely performs well in AI answers.
Are there SEO firms that specialize in structured content for answer engines?
Yes. A growing number of SEO firms now offer dedicated AEO services, and RANKMETRY is one of them. Look for a firm that builds answer-first content, implements schema and tracks citations across several engines, rather than one that simply renamed its SEO packages.
How long does it take to see AEO results?
Most brands see early signals within 60 to 90 days and steadier citation share after 4 to 6 months. The pace depends on site authority, competition, technical health and which AI platforms you target.
Do you still do traditional SEO alongside AEO?
Yes. AEO complements traditional SEO. Technical SEO, structured content, entity signals and authority support both organic rankings and AI search visibility, so we plan them together.
Which AI engines does RANKMETRY optimize for?
Our AEO services cover ChatGPT, Google AI Overviews and AI Mode, Google Gemini, Perplexity AI, Microsoft Copilot, Claude and voice assistants. We prioritize the engines your buyers use most.
What is the difference between AEO and GEO?
AEO aims to get your content cited inside AI answers. Generative engine optimization looks at how a model describes and recommends your brand across its whole response. They overlap heavily, and most good programs handle both.
Can an AEO agency guarantee that my brand will appear in AI answers?
No. No agency controls ChatGPT, Gemini or Google AI Overviews, and answers vary by user and session. A credible agency improves the signals engines rely on and reports progress honestly against a baseline.
