GEO in California, measured in mentions
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.

Generative engine optimization, or GEO, is SEO for the answers AI writes. The aim is to be one of the few companies an assistant names. We do this work for businesses in California across ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity and the AI results in Google.

The Census Bureau counts 39,431,263 residents in California for 2024, and 76 cities above 100,000 people. We have a page for every one of them. The biggest of them are Los Angeles, San Diego and San Jose.
At regional level AI has to choose among companies from several cities. It tends to name those whose service area is stated clearly on their website and confirmed by other sources. Murcia, where our office is, lies about 9,600 km (6,000 miles) away, usually 9 hours ahead of California. We arrange calls at a time that suits you. Nearby, we also cover Nevada, Utah and Arizona.

Three examples of GEO in California
Owners ask AI about symptoms and about clinics that are open. With hours, services and reviews kept up to date, your clinic has a better chance of appearing in the answer in your city.
People ask a lot before a treatment: does it hurt, how long does it last, what does it cost. If those answers are on your site, AI can use them and name you.
AI gets asked what a move costs and who can be trusted. Published guide rates and verified reviews carry the most weight in its answer.

GEO starts with knowing what AI says about you today. Before we touch anything, we ask each engine about your sector and check whether it names you, who it recommends and where it gets its information.
We ask ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity and Google what your customer would ask, and we measure if you appear, how you are described and who gets recommended in your place.
We collect the doubts your customer settles before buying: prices, comparisons, who to go to. Those are the questions you want to appear in.
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.
We repeat the same questions every month and compare. That way you see, with screenshots, which answers you have won and which are still pending.
More and more people ask AI before they search. It makes no difference if the question is about an emergency vet in New York, a gaming laptop or luggage storage in New York. AI names a few companies and the rest go unmentioned.
Illustrative simulation. AI answers change every time a question is asked and nobody can guarantee a specific recommendation.
We put your customer's questions to each assistant and save the answers.
We decide with you which questions to go after first and what has to change on the website to win them.
Content, structured data and media mentions, month by month, with tasks you know about in advance.
AI answers change often. We keep watch and react when your brand moves up or down.

Talk to the teamIt is what you do so that AI talks about your company. When someone asks ChatGPT, Gemini or Perplexity about a product or a service, the answer names a few brands and leaves the rest out. GEO is the work of making yours one of the few that get named.
Expect 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. Nothing in this work requires a visit. We run the questions as a customer in California 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.
Usually not. We work on the website you have: we improve the copy, add frequently asked questions and structured data. If something bigger were needed, such as a redesign, we would explain why before doing anything. Web design is handled by the same team.
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.
Leave us your website and we will tell you what AI knows about your brand, what it is missing and where we would start.
