What an AI SEO agency does
An AI SEO agency optimizes a brand so it wins recommendations and citations inside generative platforms such as ChatGPT, Google AI Overviews, Perplexity, Gemini and Claude, alongside conventional rankings. The work breaks into four parts. Generative engine optimization restructures content using entity clarity, passage optimization and schema markup so models can extract and cite it. Prompt and query mapping tracks which conversational prompts target your category on each engine. Cross-surface visibility tracking measures share of voice and mention frequency inside AI replies rather than keyword positions. Digital PR builds citations on the third-party sources models scrape and trust.
What AI SEO and GEO cost
Specialist retainers typically run from $3,000 to $15,000 or more per month, depending on the technical complexity of the site, content volume, and how many AI surfaces you target. Entry-level engagements start closer to $2,500, and full-stack programs covering every layer commonly land between $6,000 and $12,000. Visibility tracking tools alone cost between $10 and $1,000 per month if you want to measure before you hire. Many SEO agencies quote GEO as a separate line on top of an existing retainer rather than folding it in.

What is an AI SEO agency?
An AI SEO agency is a specialist marketing agency that helps brands appear inside AI-generated answers across the major engines, including ChatGPT, Google AI Overviews, Perplexity, Gemini and Claude, while maintaining conventional search visibility. Where traditional SEO competes for a position in a list of links, AI SEO competes to be the source an engine names and cites.
What is generative engine optimization (GEO)?
GEO is the practice of structuring a brand's content and authority so large language models can find, extract and cite it. In practice it means entity clarity so the model knows what you are, passage-level formatting so answers can be lifted cleanly, schema markup, and third-party citations on sources the models already trust. It sits on top of an SEO foundation rather than replacing it.
How much does an AI SEO agency cost?
Retainers typically run $3,000 to $15,000 or more per month. Entry-level engagements begin around $2,500, and full-stack programs covering technical, content, authority and measurement usually land between $6,000 and $12,000. Cost scales with site complexity, content volume and how many AI surfaces you want covered. Monitoring tools on their own run from $10 to $1,000 per month.
How do I know if my brand is visible in AI answers?
You test it. Ask the questions your customers would ask across several engines and record whether you appear, which competitors appear instead, and which sources each engine cites. That gives you a baseline of share of voice and mention frequency, which is the metric that replaces keyword position in AI search. Doing it manually gives a snapshot; tracking tools repeat it so you can see movement over time.
How are the agencies on this page ordered?
Agencies are ordered by partner tier: Certified Partner first, then Partner, then Unverified. Tier reflects an agency's verification status with AIclicks, not a performance score or a ranking of quality. Unverified profiles were compiled from public search results and have not been claimed by the agency yet, so their details are deliberately minimal. Any agency can claim its profile to correct and expand it.
