AI Search Optimisation
AI Search Audit
Find out how AI search engines see your business — and what’s stopping them from recommending you.
“Instead of a long technical report, we got a clear plan with impact and effort levels. It made it easy to get buy-in internally and move fast.”
Alexander Yonov
What an AI Search Audit actually tells you
AI search engines — ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google’s AI Overview, Gemini — don’t rank websites the way Google does. They pull from sources they trust, synthesise answers, and either cite you or they don’t.
An AI Search Audit maps exactly where you stand: which queries mention your business, which cite your competitors instead, and what structural or content gaps are causing you to be overlooked. It’s the starting point for any serious GEO strategy.
Get clarity that drives action
Why run an AI Search Audit now?
AIO is the practical side of “AI search”. It means adjusting your content and site signals so Google’s AI (and other AI-driven search experiences) can understand what you do, trust what you’re saying, and cite you when the query matches.
It’s not gimmicks or prompt spam. It’s making your site the clearest, most credible answer available.
01
AI search is already changing how your buyers find you
AI Overviews, Perplexity, and ChatGPT are answering commercial queries directly. If you're not cited, you're invisible — regardless of your Google rankings.
02
Your competitors may already be optimising for it
Early movers in GEO are building brand authority in AI responses right now. The audit shows you exactly where the gap is and how fast you need to move.
03
Rankings and AI visibility don't always correlate
A page can rank on page one and still never appear in an AI-generated answer. This audit separates the two so you know what's actually driving enquiries.
From insight to action
What the AI Search Audit covers:
Not every keyword is an AIO opportunity. We map the queries already producing AI Overviews in your niche, spot the gaps your competitors aren’t answering well, and create a prioritised list you can act on- fast.
AI Visibility Snapshot
We test your brand and key service queries across ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google AI Overviews, and Gemini. We document where you appear, where competitors appear instead, and where no one does.
Content & Structure Analysis
We review whether your existing pages give AI engines the clear, structured signals they need — definitions, FAQs, entity clarity, schema, and topical authority.
Brand Signal & Citation Audit
We assess how your brand appears across third-party sources — directories, press, reviews, industry sites — that AI engines use to validate and source answers.
Gap Report & Priority Recommendations
You receive a clear, prioritised report with specific fixes: what to create, what to restructure, and what quick wins will move you fastest into AI-generated answers.

A traditional SEO audit focuses on technical health, rankings, and on-page optimisation for Google’s algorithm. An AI Search Audit specifically examines how AI engines perceive, trust, and cite your brand — which involves different signals: content structure, entity clarity, third-party authority, and how well your answers match the queries AI is synthesising responses for.
No — the audit is specifically designed as a starting point. It tells you your current baseline, where the gaps are, and what actions will have the most impact. Many clients use it to decide whether to invest in ongoing GEO work.
Typically 5–7 working days from briefing to delivery. You receive a written report plus a walkthrough call to go through the findings and prioritise next steps.
The report stands alone — you can take it and act on it yourself, share it with your team, or use it as the brief for ongoing GEO work with us. There’s no obligation to continue, though most clients do.

The question keeping small business owners awake isn’t whether AI will change search-it already has. The real question is: when your potential customers fundamentally change how they find businesses like
What Does AI Say About Your Firm? Most Professional Services Businesses Have No Idea. I started noticing this properly about a year ago, when a client asked me to look
Most professional services firms that come to me with a disappointing SEO history share one thing in common. Not a bad agency. Not a penalty. Not even the wrong keywords.
