Get found by AI.

AEO is a digital marketing strategy focused on optimizing content so that AI‑powered answer engines (e.g., ChatGPT, Google’s AI Overviews, Perplexity, etc.) can directly surface it as concise, authoritative responses rather than merely showing links in traditional search results. The main purpose of AEO is to get mentioned and cited in AI answers when potential buyers are looking for solutions.

With increasing reliance on generative AI chatbots for information, AEO shifts optimization from click-driven SEO to being featured directly in AI-generated answers. High-intent buyers are replacing traditional search with AI for product discovery. With rising organic traffic declines and 60%+ zero-click searches, companies risk becoming invisible if they don’t adapt.

We run prompts on each AI platform continuously to collect millions of responses daily, tracking where and how your brand appears in AI-generated answers, analyzing citations, sentiment and rankings.

Cognizo identifies the questions your buyers ask AI platforms, creates and publishes content that answers them, fixes the structural issues that keep AI engines from citing you, and constantly improves pages to build authority signals and generate the maximum number of leads over time.

You can track a wide range of leading AI platforms and generative engines with Cognizo, including ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, Google AI Overviews, Google AI Mode, Claude, Meta AI, Grok and more. We continuously update our platform coverage, ensuring you always have visibility into the most relevant and impactful AI search channels.

On average, we target 2 months to realize substantial increases in visibility. The timing differs for each customer based on industry competitiveness and resource allocation. In contrast to SEO, AEO doesn’t take 6 months to see results. Most customers see upticks within the first month of using Cognizo.

Instant. You’ll have a premade prompt set to start with and we’ll kick off the analysis immediately. Your customer success partner will set up an onboarding call to ensure you have a robust AI search strategy and all your questions are answered.

Absolutely. Our prompt generation engine will give you endless suggestions and you can edit, disable, or add your own any time. You can also provide topics and keywords to customize your suggestions to tailor it to your marketing strategy.

To be included in AI answers, you have to be in the sources AI cites. Cognizo's proprietary source analysis algorithm turns AI search insights into detailed actions for any brand, identifying what content to create or refine and where to get featured to maximize AI visibility. Leading marketing teams and agencies leverage Cognizo's AI agents to guide their marketing strategies, from content creation and social media to affiliate partnerships and PR.
