AI crawler access review
robots.txt, CDN, and firewall rules checked for OAI-SearchBot, PerplexityBot, Googlebot, and Bingbot.
The Problem
Your Buyers Ask AI First, and You Aren't in the Answer
This shows up when buyers start research in ChatGPT or Google's AI Mode instead of a list of links. Rank reports still look fine while fewer people reach your site.
Tracking
Nobody knows which AI answers mention your brand.
Tracking
A fixed prompt panel shows which engines mention you, and how, every month.
Crawlers
A firewall rule quietly blocks AI crawlers.
Crawlers
We check robots.txt and bot rules so OAI-SearchBot and PerplexityBot can read pages.
Accuracy
ChatGPT repeats an old price and a retired product.
Accuracy
We fix the source pages and profiles that carry wrong facts about you.
Budget
All the SEO budget still chases blue-link rankings.
Budget
Your plan splits effort between classic search and AI answers, based on your data.
Your sales team hears it on discovery calls: "ChatGPT mentioned you, sort of." Or it recommended two competitors and got your pricing wrong. Your Google rankings look steady, but clicks on how-to searches are slipping as AI Overviews answer first. Someone checked robots.txt and found a firewall rule that blocks some AI crawlers. Nobody knows which prompts matter, which engines mention you, or whether last quarter's content changed anything. You're paying for SEO on a results page that's quietly changing shape.
We start with the basics AI answers depend on: pages that are indexed, eligible for snippets, and open to each engine's crawler. Then we build a panel of the prompts your buyers actually ask and track it across 5 engines every month. Priority pages get restructured so the answer is easy to lift, and we earn mentions on the sites these tools cite. You see what changed in the answers, not just in a rank report.
Prompts your buyers ask

Crawler access checked

We run 10 of your buyer prompts in ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, Copilot, and Google AI Mode and note who gets mentioned. You get a short call on what we found and a fixed monthly price.
What's Included
What You Get With SEO for AI Search
Every plan covers crawler access, a fixed prompt panel across 5 engines, pages restructured for answers, and fixes to wrong brand facts. A monthly report ties AI visibility to real visits.

What Our Clients Say
What Clients Say After Launch
Feedback from teams we have built apps, platforms, and websites for.
We had a pretty specific idea of what we wanted our website to become, but I wasn’t sure how easily we could explain all of it to a development team. There were quite a few moving parts, and we were working toward a deadline, so I expected a few things to get lost along the way. That never really happened. They understood what we were trying to achieve, kept us updated throughout the process, and got everything ready within the agreed timeline. The final site feels much easier to navigate, works beautifully on mobile, and is noticeably smoother for our customers. It was a huge relief seeing the original idea actually turn into the website we had in mind.
The mobile experience is probably my favourite part of the new site. We had spent a lot of time making sure the desktop version looked right, and the team kept pushing us to think about how everything would actually feel on a phone too. They were right. The navigation is clean, the interactions feel natural, and everything we’ve tested so far works exactly as it should. They also went through the links, forms, integrations, and other details more than once before launch, which I really appreciated. And even after going live, we could still reach out when something came up. The whole process felt friendly, organised, and surprisingly straightforward.
What I appreciate most is that the website is actually easy for us to manage now. We can update content ourselves instead of sending a developer a message every time we need to change something small. They also paid attention to the technical SEO side, which mattered to us because we didn’t want a new website to create problems for the traffic we already had. I’ve probably asked more questions than I should have since launch, but every question has been handled patiently and without any fuss. The team is easy to work with, they explain things clearly, and when we need something changed, they focus on getting it done rather than making the process complicated.

Work Culture
Why Marketing Teams Choose Us as Their AI SEO Agency
AI search moves fast, and claims about it move faster. We measure on a fixed prompt panel, cite what each engine publishes about itself, and say plainly what nobody can promise.
No promised AI citations
Google, OpenAI, and Perplexity decide what their answers show, and nobody outside can buy a spot. We promise the work and honest tracking, not placements.
A panel that stays fixed
We don't swap prompts to make a month look good. The panel you approve stays the same, so a change in mentions reflects a change in the answers.
Sources, not rumors
We follow what Google, OpenAI, and Perplexity publish about their crawlers and features. If a tactic only exists in a social media thread, we test it before we bill for it.
Developers fix the access
Firewall rules, rendering, and robots.txt changes are shipped by our developers, not left as notes. Nothing reaches production without your approval.
Classic SEO still counts
If your pages aren't indexed or ranking at all, AI work won't fix that first. We'll tell you when the budget belongs in classic SEO this quarter.
Your data stays yours
The prompt panel, reports, and every rewrite stay in your accounts. If you bring the work in-house, your team keeps tracking with the same panel.

Good fit
B2B and SaaS marketing teams
Your buyers ask ChatGPT for a shortlist before they visit a single vendor site, and you want to know whether your product makes that list.
Brands losing clicks to AI Overviews
Your rankings held steady this year, but Search Console shows clicks falling on the how-to searches where Google now shows an AI Overview.
Teams with wrong facts in AI answers
You've seen an AI assistant quote a price you dropped last year or describe a product you retired, and you need the sources fixed.
Companies leaving a rankings-only retainer
You want an AI SEO company that reports mentions and AI referral visits, because your current agency only sends rank charts.
Agencies adding AI search to retainers
You resell SEO and want to offer AI search SEO to clients without hiring a team to check five engines by hand.
Not a fit
Only ChatGPT matters
You care about one engine, and it's ChatGPT. Our ChatGPT SEO Services page is a one-time sprint built around OpenAI's crawler and ChatGPT search.
Only Google AI Overviews
Your traffic comes from Google, and AI Overviews are the worry. AI Overview Optimization Services works on that query set every month.
Site isn't indexed yet
Google hasn't indexed your key pages, or the site has crawl errors. Technical SEO Services fixes that base first, since AI answers need it too.
Budget under $900 a month
Your budget is under $900 a month. If a single sprint or classic SEO fits your stage better, we'll tell you before we quote.

Our plans start at $900 per month for AI Search Foundation. It covers crawler access fixes, a 50-prompt panel across 5 engines, and 2 rewritten pages a month. AI Search Growth costs $1,550 per month and doubles the panel and the rewrites. AI Search Authority costs $2,250 per month for brands with several product lines. You get a fixed proposal after the free prompt check.
Expect crawler and indexing fixes in 2 to 3 weeks and changes in AI answers over 3 to 6 months. Engines that search the live web, such as ChatGPT search and Perplexity, can reflect a fixed page soon after they recrawl it. Answers built on wider reputation shift slower, because they depend on what other sites say about you.
It's the work of making your brand easy for AI search tools to find, understand, and cite. It covers Google's AI Overviews and AI Mode plus assistants like ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, and Copilot. In practice it builds on classic SEO: crawlable pages, clear answers, accurate facts, and mentions on sites these tools trust.
AI is moving part of search from a list of links to a written answer with a few cited sources. That means fewer clicks on simple questions and more weight on being the source an answer credits. Google's AI features still draw on its index, so ranking work matters, but results are now measured in mentions and AI referral visits too.
No. AI answers still need sources, and those sources are web pages that someone has to make findable, accurate, and worth citing. What changes is the scorecard: rankings alone no longer show whether buyers see your brand. The work shifts toward clear answers, verified facts, and reputation, which is still SEO, measured in more places.
Shift effort gradually, based on your own data, rather than moving the whole budget at once. Check how many of your important queries show AI Overviews and how often buyers mention AI tools on sales calls. If both are rising, move more of each month's work toward prompt tracking and answer-first pages. Our Growth plan reviews that split every quarter.
Yes. Google says a page must be indexed and eligible for a snippet to appear as a link in AI Overviews and AI Mode, with no special extra requirements. So crawlability, helpful content, and page experience still decide whether you can be cited at all. AI Mode changes how results look, not the groundwork behind them.
Partly. The base is the same: crawlable pages, helpful content, and a strong reputation. The difference is in format and measurement. Content for AI search leads with the direct answer and states facts plainly so they can be quoted. It is tracked by mentions across engines, not only by rankings on one results page.
Look for an AI SEO consultant or agency with both technical SEO and content skills, because the work spans crawler rules and answer-first writing. Ask how they track results across engines and whether the prompt set stays fixed. Be wary of anyone who promises citations, since Google, OpenAI, and Perplexity decide what their answers show.
It works as a loop: fix access, improve the sources, then measure. We first make sure each engine's crawler can read your key pages. Then we rewrite priority pages answer-first and correct wrong brand facts on your site and profiles. Finally, a fixed prompt panel shows each month which engines mention you, and how.
