Generative engines do not rank you. They decide whether to trust you.
A model building an answer pulls from a handful of sources it already trusts: your site, review platforms, directories, Reddit threads and listicles. If those sources disagree about what you do, or do not mention you at all, you are left out.
Entity confusion
Your site says one thing, G2 another, LinkedIn a third. A model that cannot resolve who you are and what category you belong to does not name you. Most B2B sites have never checked.
Absent from the sources models cite
In a test of 8 agency-selection questions on 7 October 2026, 16 of 29 ChatGPT citations pointed to directory pages, mostly Clutch, and 11 to agencies' own sites. If you are not in those sources, you are not in the answer.
69% switched vendor
69% of B2B buyers chose a different vendor than planned because a chatbot recommended it (G2, 2026). The recommendation is built from the sources above, not from your ads.
Sources: G2 Buyer Behavior Report 2026; Salient ChatGPT citation test, 8 questions, 7 October 2026; Pew Research Center 2025.
Why GrowthSpree is good at this, in things you can check.
GEO is a 2026 discipline, so nobody has a decade of case studies. The better test is whether the agency is itself a clear, cited entity: original data, its own tooling, and a public record.
Report figures are from the published reports. The citation test above is GrowthSpree's own, run on 7 October 2026 across 8 agency-selection questions in ChatGPT; results vary by category and date.
What a generative engine checks before it names you.
A model assembling an answer looks for a source it can resolve, trust and quote. That means an entity it can identify across the web, a page that answers directly, an author with a reason to know, and claims it can trace. These nine checks run on every page before it goes live, and you can verify each one in the source.
Entity first, then pages. If the model cannot resolve who you are, the best page in the world will not get you named.GrowthSpree AEO pod

Meet an expert →Six things you can verify before you sign
Most agency pitches sound the same. These are the parts of ours you can check for yourself, on our site or in your own source code once we start.
One entity record, everywhere
Week one is an entity audit: what your site, G2, Clutch, LinkedIn and Crunchbase each say you are. Mismatches are fixed and Organization and Person schema shipped, and you can check every record yourself.
Share of answers, on a fixed prompt set
The same buyer prompts are re-run every month across ChatGPT, Perplexity and Gemini, so the share of answers that name you is comparable over time. Citations per engine and per page sit next to it.
Pages live on your domain
Every page publishes to a subfolder or subdomain of your site, not ours. You own the content and the images, and you can pause or leave at any time. No CMS access is needed.
Nothing publishes without your approval
You tick or skip topics in a weekly queue, about 10 minutes. Drafts that fail brand voice, sourcing or editor review are rewritten, not published.
Every demo traced to a page
CTAs carry CRM attribution, so the monthly report shows share of answers, citations, visits, demos and pipeline by page, not a screenshot.
Senior operator, named editor
A pod with SEO, engineering and B2B marketing roles and a named account lead. Median first response under an hour during your working day, on Slack or WhatsApp.
SEO, AEO and GEO: three names, one program
SEO earns rankings in Google's list of links. AEO (answer engine optimization) gets your brand named and cited inside AI answers from ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, Google AI Overviews and Copilot. GEO (generative engine optimization) is the same work seen from the engine's side: entity clarity, structured data and off-site mentions that generative models use to decide who to name. GrowthSpree runs all three as one program, because the same answer-first page, schema and authority work serves every one of them.
Rank for the questions that end in a demo
Technical SEO, bottom-funnel pages (comparisons, alternatives, pricing, use cases), internal links and authority. Reported on Google rankings, non-brand clicks and demos from organic.
Get named inside the answer
Answer-first page structure, named authors, sourced claims, FAQ and HowTo schema, llms.txt and AI crawler access. Reported on citations per engine and per page.
Be the entity the model trusts
Organization and Person schema, consistent entity data across G2, Clutch, LinkedIn and Crunchbase, presence in the Reddit threads and listicles AI tools cite, and original data worth citing. Reported on the share of AI answers that name you.
The SEO agency page covers the Google side in detail and the AEO agency page covers citations per engine. Or skip the reading and talk to the person who would run it.
Meet an expert →One pod owns entity, content, technical, authority and attribution.
GEO fails when the schema is done by one vendor, the content by another and the review profiles by nobody. Here one team owns all of it, and the weekly report shows each part.

The first 90 days of a GEO program
Setup takes about 40 minutes of your time: connect the domain, the CRM, analytics and Search Console, all read-only, and share case studies and positioning. After that, one short weekly call and a 10-minute approval queue.
- 1Week 1
Entity audit
Connect domain, CRM, analytics and Search Console, read-only. Compare what your site, G2, Clutch, LinkedIn and Crunchbase say you are; run your buyer prompts across five engines and record which sources they cite.
- 2Weeks 2 to 4
Fix the record
Organization, Person and Service schema shipped; descriptions aligned across sources; llms.txt and crawler access fixed; first answer-first pages live.
- 3Weeks 5 to 8
Earn the mentions
20 to 40 pages a month on your domain; original data piece published; review and directory profiles updated; presence built in the listicles and threads the models cite.
- 4Weeks 9 to 12
Measure share and attribute
Same prompt set re-run and share of answers compared with week one; pages that slipped rewritten; first demos traced to pages in the CRM; next-quarter plan.
What to expect on a typical account
Typical account, not a guarantee. Timing depends on category, starting authority and how many open buyer questions exist. Entity fixes show up fastest; share of answers moves as pages and mentions accumulate.
The tools behind the weekly entity and citation checks
Salient does the finding, drafting, shipping and tracking. People approve topics, edit drafts, fix entity records and read the crawler logs. You approve what publishes.
Finds buyer questions, drafts in your voice, ships schema and llms.txt, re-runs the prompt set and flags decay. People check each step; you approve every topic.
- Weekly gap report from Search Console, AI answers, Reddit, G2 and sales calls
- Share of answers on a fixed prompt set, monthly
- Citations, visits, demos and pipeline by page
Confirms which pages the engines read, so a missing mention can be traced to access, entity confusion or missing sources.
- Crawler visits by page and engine
- Alert when a page stops being fetched
- Evidence a page is reachable, not just live
The open Search Console MCP from GrowthSpree lets the pod query impressions, clicks and positions by page and query each week.
- Impressions without clicks become answer pages
- Position drops trigger a refresh
- Runs on your own property
Each CTA carries attribution into HubSpot or Salesforce, so the report says which page and which buyer question produced the demo.
- Pipeline influenced by page and query
- Uses your existing CRM fields
- Read-only analytics and Search Console access
How GrowthSpree compares with AI visibility software, an SEO retainer, and hiring
Most GEO offers are either a dashboard that shows share of voice or an SEO retainer with "AI" added to the proposal. Here is how the work actually splits.
| What to compare | GrowthSpree | AI visibility software | Traditional SEO agency | In-house hire |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Entity audit and schema | Week one, then maintained | Not included | Sometimes, as a one-off | Depends on the hire |
| Off-site mentions (reviews, directories, Reddit, listicles) | Worked every month | Monitored only | Rarely | Needs a PR or community hire |
| Pages that models can quote | 20 to 40 a month, approved by you | No | 4 to 6 a month | 2 to 4 a month |
| Share of answers on a fixed prompt set | Monthly, included | Yes | Rarely | Needs a tool |
| Your time each month | About 80 minutes in month one, then under an hour | 40+ hours doing the work | 8 to 15 hours | A full-time role |
| Refresh when share or citations slip | Triggered automatically | Alert only | On request | Manual |
| Demos traced to pages in your CRM | Every CTA | Not included | Traffic and rankings | Depends on RevOps |
| Terms | Quoted on a call, month to month | Monthly software fee | Usually 6 to 12 months | Salary, tools, ramp-up |
Agency page counts and team-time figures are taken from Salient's published comparison of typical agency, freelancer and self-serve options (October 2026). Software columns refer to tools such as Profound and Peec AI, which monitor AI visibility but do not produce the pages.
What 49 G2 reviewers say about GrowthSpree

What our clients say
From marketing leaders at PriceLabs, Rocketlane, Hubilo, Fielddrive, and more.
GrowthSpree brought a level of data-driven rigor to our demand gen that we hadn't experienced before. They didn't just execute campaigns, they built an engine.
Who GrowthSpree is built for, and who it is not
Organic and AI visibility compound over months, so the fit matters more than the pitch. Here is the honest version.
GrowthSpree is a fit if you are
- A B2B or B2B SaaS company with paying customers and a stable ICP, in a category buyers ask AI tools to recommend
- Named inconsistently, or not at all, across G2, Clutch, LinkedIn, Crunchbase and your own site
- Willing to publish on your own domain, keep review and directory profiles current, and approve topics weekly
- Running HubSpot or Salesforce, so demos can be traced back to pages
- Patient enough for 90 to 160 days before judging pipeline
Choose someone else if you are
- A B2C brand, consumer app, ecommerce store, or DTC company
- Pre-product-market-fit, or still changing your ICP or category
- After a share-of-voice dashboard only; a tool is cheaper for that
- Wanting a guaranteed share of answers or a guaranteed place in the shortlist
What is generative engine optimization (GEO)?
Generative engine optimization (GEO) is the practice of shaping what generative AI engines such as ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini and Google AI Overviews know and trust about a company, so that they name and cite it when buyers ask for recommendations. Where SEO targets a ranking and AEO targets the answer, GEO targets the inputs the model uses to build the answer: a clear, consistent entity record (Organization and Person schema, matching information across your site, G2, Clutch, LinkedIn and Crunchbase), presence in the third-party sources models cite (review platforms, directories, Reddit, listicles), original data worth citing, and answer-first pages that are easy to quote. GrowthSpree runs GEO for B2B and B2B SaaS companies as one program with SEO and AEO, on the client's own domain, and reports the share of AI answers that name them alongside citations, visits, demos and pipeline.
