AEO solutions

Understand where you appear now, then improve the answer layer around your business.

Our AEO solutions help you understand where you appear now, what answer engines are saying about you, which competitors are being recommended, and what needs to change so your business becomes easier to understand, cite and recommend.

If you need the full service overview, start with our AEO agency page. This page helps you choose your level on one ladder of four: analytics, then content, then factcheck, then third party mentions.

[01] Choose your level

Choose the right level of AEO support

Level 1 measures how AI describes and recommends you. Level 2 adds content, Level 3 adds factcheck, and Level 4 adds third party mentions.

Each level contains the one below it, so moving up only adds the new work. Nothing is unpicked or repeated.

Every level is compared feature by feature on the pricing page.

01

Level 1: Baseline

AI search analytics

You stop guessing whether AI recommends you.

From £499/month

Start at Level 1

Level 1 measures how answer engines describe and recommend you. We track a set of buyer prompts daily across ChatGPT, Perplexity and Google AI Overviews, benchmark the competitors appearing alongside you, and hand you a playbook of what to change first.

Best for

Businesses that want an honest baseline before committing to content work. This suits teams with a credible site and the capacity to act on recommendations themselves.

What's available
  • 3 answer engines: ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google AI Overviews
  • 50 to 100 prompts, monitored daily
  • Competitor benchmarking, 3 to 15 tracked

Level 2: Momentum

Everything in Layer 1, plus content

We build the assets that change the answer.

From £1,750/month

Level 2 keeps everything in Level 1 and adds the content that changes the answer. We build a calendar against your prompt gaps, publish answer-led pieces each month, optimise existing pages and run a technical retrieval audit so engines can actually read what you publish.

Best for

Teams that already accept AI search matters and want the work done rather than recommended. This is where most brands start if they want movement, not just measurement.

What's available
  • The same 3 engines, or all 10 with full coverage
  • 6 to 20 content pieces per month
  • Content calendar mapped to your prompt gaps

Level 3: Integrity

Everything in Layer 2, plus factcheck

What AI says about you is true, and stays true.

From £4,250/month

Move to Level 3

Level 3 keeps everything in Level 2 and adds factcheck. We build a brand truth base, monitor the claims answer engines make about you, and execute corrections with before and after evidence on every one.

Best for

Regulated, high-consideration or frequently misdescribed brands, where an inaccurate AI answer costs more than an absent one.

What's available
  • All 10 answer engines
  • Brand truth base, built and maintained
  • Claim monitoring, monthly to continuous
  • 6 to unlimited corrections per month
  • Before and after evidence on every correction

Talk to us about Level 4

Level 4 keeps everything in Level 3 and adds third party mentions. We map the sources answer engines lean on in your category, secure placements in them, and measure the impact of each one over the following 90 days.

What's available
  • Source ecosystem map

[02] What AEO can help with

AEO helps your business become easier for answer engines to understand and recommend.

The work connects visibility tracking with content, technical improvements and clearer source signals.

01

Visibility

See where your business is already appearing, where competitors are ahead, and which answer surfaces matter most.

  • clearer visibility in answer engines
  • better understanding of where competitors appear

02

Evidence

Improve the content, citations and source signals that answer engines rely on when describing your business.

  • stronger answer-led content
  • improved citations and mentions
  • clearer technical and content signals

03

Momentum

Turn AI search visibility into a repeatable operating rhythm your team can keep building on.

  • better alignment between your website, offer and buyer questions
  • a repeatable system your team can build on

This is why AEO planning starts with buyer questions, not just pages. Our guide to tracked prompts explains how those questions become a useful measurement set.

[05] Moving up a level

What happens when you move up a level?

The ladder is built so you can start where you are and add the next job when you need it, without redoing anything.

  1. 01

    Start where you are

    Pick the level that matches what you need now. Nothing above it is billed, and nothing below it is missing.

  2. 02

    Move up when ready

    Because each level contains the one below it, moving up only adds the new work. Nothing is unpicked or repeated.

  3. 03

    Keep your history

    We agree the new scope, apply it from the next cycle, and your prompts, dashboards and history carry straight across.

[07] FAQs

FAQs

Which level should we choose?+

Start at Level 1 if you want an honest baseline before spending on content. Choose Level 2 if you already accept AI search matters and want content published against your prompt gaps. Choose Level 3 if accuracy matters as much as presence, and Level 4 if you need third party sources talking about you.

Are these long contracts?+

Levels 1 and 2 are 30 day rolling and you can cancel anytime. Level 3 has a 3 month minimum and Level 4 a 4 month minimum, both moving to 30 day rolling after that, because accuracy and third party authority compound over months rather than weeks.

What happens if we want to move up a level?+

You can move up whenever you are ready. Because each level contains the one below it, moving up only adds the new work. Nothing is unpicked or repeated. We agree the new scope, apply it from the next cycle, and your history and dashboards carry across.

What is the difference between the three engine and ten engine options?+

Level 1 covers the three engines where most buyer journeys start today: ChatGPT, Perplexity and Google AI Overviews. Full coverage adds the rest for ten in total, including Google AI Mode, Gemini, Copilot, Meta AI, Claude, Grok and DeepSeek. Level 2 can run on either the three or all ten. Levels 3 and 4 include all ten as standard.

What are the content pieces?+

They are answer-led pieces designed to improve how answer engines understand your business, mapped to the prompts where you are currently absent. These may include FAQs, page sections, comparison content, summaries or rewrites of existing pages. Content starts at Level 2.

Is technical implementation included?+

Level 1 includes a baseline audit and a playbook you act on yourself. From Level 2 we run a technical retrieval audit and carry out the content and page work, with the scope of hands-on implementation set by your level.

How is each level priced?+

Each level scales with scope: the number of prompts, engines, markets, content volume and corrections all move within a level, so the price follows the work. Levels 1 to 3 start from a published figure and Level 4 is priced on enquiry. Annual prepay saves 10% on every level.
