AI search visibility
Get recommended by ChatGPT, Gemini and Google AI Overviews
AI search visibility, also called generative engine optimisation (GEO) or answer engine optimisation (AEO), is the work that helps ChatGPT, Google AI Overviews, Perplexity and Gemini find, trust and name your business. Socialcave adds structured data, answer-first content, consistent listings and review signals, then tracks whether AI assistants mention you each month. It is included in Get Booked and above, or available on its own at £249 a month, tracking three customer questions across five AI assistants.

FAQ
AI search visibility: questions we get asked
What is the difference between SEO, AEO and GEO?
SEO helps you rank in search results. AEO (answer engine optimisation) helps your content get used as the direct answer in features like AI Overviews and voice search. GEO (generative engine optimisation) helps AI assistants such as ChatGPT name and cite your business.
Can you guarantee ChatGPT will recommend me?
No one can guarantee that, and you should be wary of anyone who does. We improve the signals AI assistants rely on and report honestly on whether you are being mentioned.
Does my small business really need this?
If customers ask AI assistants for local recommendations in your trade, being missing from those answers means losing customers you never knew about. Our free health check shows whether you appear today.
