Visibility — SEO · GEO · AI search

Be the
answer.

Your clients no longer scroll ten blue links. They ask an AI, and it gives one answer that names two or three sources. We make sure yours is one of them — on Google, in AI Overviews, in ChatGPT and Perplexity.

Which studio should build a custom dashboard for our operations team?

A few options worth looking at:

A large agency with a data practice1, a freelance platform to hire a dashboard developer2, or a BI tool your team configures itself3.

Compare portfolios and pricing before deciding.

The numbers

Search didn't die.
It stopped sending clicks.

68%

of Google searches in the US ended without a single click between January and April 2026 — up from 60% in 2024.

How often people click a result when Google shows an AI summary, versus when it doesn't. The summary nearly halves the clicks.

people use ChatGPT every week, more than double the number a year earlier. That's a second search engine your clients already use.

Ranking is no longer the finish line. Being chosen is.

Three names, one goal

SEO, GEO, AI Overviews.
Here's the difference.

SEO

Search Engine Optimization

Can Google find and rank you?

The foundation. Fast pages, clean structure, content in the HTML, the right keywords. Without it nothing else works — AI engines lean on the same index.

Classic Google & Bing results
GEO

Generative Engine Optimization

Do AI assistants pick you and cite you?

Also called AEO. Being quotable: clear answers, facts a model can lift, a brand that shows up consistently across the web so engines trust it.

ChatGPT · Perplexity · Gemini · Claude
AI Overviews

Google's AI summaries

Are you in the box above the results?

Where SEO and GEO meet. Google writes the answer itself and cites a handful of pages. If you're not one of them, you start below the fold.

Our method

Two scores.
Never blended.

Most tools give you one number. It hides the question that matters: is the problem your site, or the world outside it? We measure both, separately.

0/100

AI Readiness

Can machines read, understand and quote you?

Measured on your site itself — rendering, structure, schema, languages, speed, how answerable your content is.

What we fix in code
0/100

AI Visibility

Do the engines actually recommend you?

Measured by asking the AI engines the real questions your clients ask, every week, and tracking who gets named.

What we track over time
Example

A site at 91 / 28 is technically ready but invisible — it needs authority and presence. A site at 42 / 28 has the same visibility and a completely different fix. One blended score would call them equal.

What we check

What machines need
to pick you.

Most of the readiness score can be checked automatically — and fixed in code. That's where a studio that builds websites has an edge over one that writes reports.

01

Content in the raw HTML

Many AI crawlers don't run JavaScript. If your page only appears once the browser builds it, they see an empty shell.

SEOGEO
02

Structured data

Schema markup tells engines who you are, what you sell and what your pages answer — in a format they don't have to guess.

SEOGEOAI Overviews
03

Answer-first writing

Real questions as headings, direct answers under them, facts and figures a model can quote without rewriting.

GEOAI Overviews
04

One consistent brand

The same name, offer and facts on your site, your profiles and the directories engines trust. Contradictions cost you citations.

GEO
05

Languages done right

For bilingual sites, hreflang tags so each engine serves the French page to French speakers — and doesn't treat the two as duplicates.

SEO
06

Speed and crawl access

Core Web Vitals in the green, a clean sitemap, and robots rules that let the right AI crawlers in.

How we work

Audit. Fix. Monitor.

01

Audit

Both scores for your site — and for your three closest competitors, so you see where you stand.

  • Readiness, page by page
  • Visibility across AI engines
  • A prioritised list of fixes
02

Fix

No PDF to decode. We ship the changes in your codebase or CMS, alongside your team.

  • Technical and schema fixes
  • Content restructured for answers
  • Bilingual set-up checked
03

Monitor

A weekly panel of the real questions your clients ask, run across the main AI engines.

  • Who gets named, and where
  • A monthly report in plain language
  • Alerts when things move
Questions

Straight answers.

Is SEO dead?

No. AI engines lean on the same search indexes, so solid SEO is still the base. What moved is the finish line: ranking gets you considered, being quoted gets you chosen.

Can you guarantee ChatGPT will recommend us?

Nobody honestly can. Answers vary by prompt, model and day. We make your site as easy as possible to read and quote — and measure every week whether it's working.

How long before we see results?

Readiness improves as soon as fixes ship. Visibility moves slower — weeks to months, as engines re-crawl and your presence builds. That's why we track it instead of promising a date.

We didn't build our site with you. Can you help?

Yes. The audit works on any public site. For the fixes, we work in your stack or alongside your developers.
