GEO for businesses in Trois-Rivières: how we count progress
There are no rankings as there are in Google, but there are numbers: answers you appear in, links to your website and visits that arrive from AI.
More than 200 clients trust us.
GEO, short for generative engine optimization, is the work of getting AI assistants to name your company in their answers. We do it for businesses in Trois-Rivières, so that ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity and Google mention you when someone asks about what you sell.

Trois-RivièresCanadaWorldwide
Trois-Rivières is home to around 140,000 people. It is in Quebec. In Quebec we cover 10 cities.
For smaller cities AI often has little to go on and ends up recommending companies from the nearest big city. Giving it well-organized information is how you get it to name you instead. Vértigo is based in Murcia, Spain, usually 6 hours ahead of Trois-Rivières. We work with clients abroad by video call, in English. Nearby, we also cover Terrebonne, Québec and Lévis.
Population figures: GeoNames.
What we do, depending on your sector
People ask AI about symptoms before they ask about clinics. If your pages answer those questions under a named, registered practitioner, you have a better chance of being the clinic it names in Trois-Rivières.
AI gets asked about neighbourhoods, prices and agencies people can trust. Good area guides, written with your own data, make you a source it can quote.
Parents and students compare tutors by asking AI. We publish results, timetables and prices clearly so it has something to recommend you with.

Each assistant finds its information in a different way. Some search the web live as they answer and others reply from what they learned in training, months ago. Knowing which one your customer uses changes the plan.
We check what each assistant knows about your company and whether what it says is correct. Sometimes it does name you, but describes you badly or with old details.
We find out what your customers really ask AI about what you sell, in your city, nationwide or abroad.
AI cites what it can summarize without getting it wrong. We turn your pages into direct answers, with your own figures and the name of whoever stands behind them.
We tidy up what AI knows about you: structured data, business profile and consistent listings, so it does not confuse you with anyone else.
Press, rankings and trade directories. The more reliable sources talk about you, the more often your name comes up in the answer.
A short monthly report: mentions, links, visits from AI and what we plan to do the following month.
AI does not show a list for you to choose from. It chooses for you. When someone asks about a physiotherapist in Trois-Rivières, they get a few names, and the first one has the advantage.
Illustrative simulation. AI answers change every time a question is asked and nobody can guarantee a specific recommendation.
We ask each engine about your sector and your brand to find out where we are starting from.
You receive a document with the answers, the sources and the actions we propose, from most to least important.
We publish the content that is missing, correct your brand details and work to get the sources in your sector to cite you.
Every month we put the same questions to each engine and compare. What works gets more time and what does not gets changed.

Talk to the teamExpect weeks for some answers and months for others. When an assistant looks things up online, a new page or a fresh mention can show quickly. When it relies on its training, nothing moves until the model is updated, and only the company that makes it knows when that will be.
Yes, and it is where competition is still lightest. AI answers questions about local businesses every day and takes its facts from business profiles, reviews and local media. If yours are up to date, a good part of the work is already done.
Yes. Nothing in this work requires a visit. We run the questions as a customer in Trois-Rivières would ask them, meet you by video call in English and send a monthly report. Between reports you can write to the team whenever you need to.
Yes. Visits that come from ChatGPT, Perplexity or Gemini can be separated out in your website analytics. We show them to you each month alongside the mentions, so you can see whether being named is turning into visits and inquiries.
It can be corrected, though not overnight. AI repeats what it finds, so the source of the error has to be fixed and the correct fact reinforced on your website and your profiles. With assistants that answer from training, the old version can linger until the model is updated.
More or less. GEO, AI SEO, AI search optimization and AEO (answer engine optimization) are names for the same aim: being cited and recommended in answers written by AI. The industry has not settled on one term. We say GEO, but the work is identical whatever you call it.
Leave us your website and we will tell you what AI knows about your brand, what it is missing and where we would start.
