Answer Engine Optimization (AEO) is the work of making your business easy for AI assistants and AI search features to find, understand and cite. When a buyer asks ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, Copilot or Google's AI Overviews who to hire, AEO is what gives your name a fair chance of appearing in the answer. The ten providers below all sell AEO, or the closely related GEO (Generative Engine Optimization), as a defined service. For each one we summarize what the service includes and how the provider says it measures results, so you can compare them on the same terms.
VTurnU: B2B AEO combined with technical SEO and AI crawler checks, working with clients worldwide
Amsive: AEO inside a large SEO practice, with LLM share of voice tracking
Avenue Z: AEO paired with media placements and AI visibility audits

Each provider has a dedicated AEO, GEO or AI visibility service page that we could read in full.
Each page explains what the work includes beyond a standard SEO package.
Most of them state how they measure AI visibility, such as citations, share of voice or AI referral traffic.
This list is not a ranking. VTurnU appears first because this is VTurnU's page; the other providers follow in alphabetical order.
No provider paid to be included. The descriptions paraphrase each provider's own website, so confirm current details with them directly.

Which buyer questions will you track, and will we see the full list?
Which AI platforms and locations do you test, and how often?
How do you separate a brand mention, a linked citation and an actual visit?
What do you check on AI crawler access and JavaScript rendering?
What will you change on our website, and what happens off-site, such as PR, reviews and listings?
What proof can you show, with dates and the data source behind each number?
What will you not promise? A careful provider will not guarantee AI citations.
Most of the providers above do not publish prices. NoGood's website says its average retainer is above $20,000 a month, and the others ask for a call or a proposal. A sensible first step with any provider is a fixed-scope audit, so you can judge their method and reporting before you commit to a retainer.
SEO earns visibility in search results. AEO focuses on being the direct answer or the cited source in answer-style results, and GEO focuses on being named in answers generated by tools such as ChatGPT and Gemini. Providers use the terms loosely, and in practice the work overlaps a great deal.
No. Google's guidance on AI features says there are no additional requirements or special optimizations needed to appear in AI Overviews or AI Mode. The usual SEO fundamentals still apply.
No. AI answers change with the question, the location and the date, and no provider controls them. Look for a provider that tracks a fixed set of questions over time and reports mentions, citations and visits separately.
It depends on where you start. Technical fixes can be done in weeks, while earning mentions and citations builds over months. Ask any provider for a dated baseline at the start, so you can see what changed.
If you want to see how AI assistants describe your business today, VTurnU's AI visibility audit shows where you appear, where you are missing and what to fix first.
