SEO vs. AEO is not a small update.
Traditional SEO helps you rank for a click. AEO helps AI understand you well enough to summarize, cite, and recommend your business before someone ever visits your site.
AI search is changing who gets found
When Someone Asks AI Who to Call in Your Industry — Will Your Business Be Named?
Most business owners are not thinking about AI visibility yet. That is exactly why many will realize too late that their competitors are the ones being surfaced when prospects ask ChatGPT, Perplexity, or Gemini who to call.

Check whether AI can clearly understand your business.
Enter your details below to start the visibility check. On the next screen, you will see what AI may still be missing and which package fits best if you want help fixing it.
How It Works
A simple way to see whether AI understands your business clearly.
Get Cited AI helps businesses show up by name when their next customer asks an AI who to call. The process starts with a quick check, not a long setup.
01
Start with a quick check
Use the AI visibility check to see whether your website gives AI enough clear information to understand your business. It takes less than a minute.
02
See what is missing
Review the files, signals, and visibility gaps that may be making your business harder for AI to mention when someone asks who to call.
03
Choose the right next step
If your site needs work, pick the package that matches what the check found. One-time pricing starts at $197.
Why this matters now
AI search is changing how buyers find and trust businesses.
If AI summarizes the answer before a buyer clicks, your website needs to be clear enough to be understood and cited inside that answer. That is why authority, structure, and machine-readable clarity matter more than they used to.

Expert perspective
“Answer engine optimization helps your content show up in AI-generated responses and voice search results.”
Neil Patel's framing reinforces why this matters. AEO is about making your business visible inside the answer, not only hoping for a click after a search result.

Authority and expertise
“AI search is the biggest shift in how businesses get found since Google launched. CitedAI makes it simple for any business owner to get properly set up — without needing to understand the technical details. This is the tool I've been recommending to every business owner I work with.”
What AEO actually means
Your website has to be readable by AI before it can be recommended by AI.
These visuals explain the change. Buyers are getting direct answers from AI tools, which means your site needs cleaner signals, better authority, and clearer structure than a traditional SEO-only approach was built to provide.
AEO is about being understood, not just indexed.
If your website gives AI clean signals, AI can pick you up, understand what you do, and use your business as part of the answer it gives to a buyer.

A little more detail before you decide.
These answers are here to remove confusion. The goal is not to push you into more than you need. The goal is to make the right next step obvious.
What does the free check actually do?
It reviews your website for the files and structured signals that help AI tools understand your business. It also runs a practical visibility check tied to how major AI platforms may interpret what is on your site today.
How do I know which package is right for me?
The check points you to the package that matches the gaps it finds. If your site is already close, you should not be pushed into a bigger package than you need. If the key signals are missing, the recommendation will reflect that.
What happens after I buy?
Starter and Growth buyers receive their checklist and next-step information within 48 hours. Done For You buyers receive the package summary and a request for the access details needed to complete the work properly.
