An AI SEO agency makes a company easy to find in Google and easy to cite in AI answers from ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, Claude and Google AI Overviews. FullStackCloser does this for B2B companies: we fix technical SEO and AI-crawler access, add structured data and llms.txt, rewrite service pages so they answer first, build consistent profiles AI engines can trust, and track which buyer prompts mention you.
Indexing, sitemaps, canonicals and internal links fixed, plus robots.txt rules that let GPTBot, PerplexityBot, ClaudeBot and other AI crawlers in.
Organization, Service, FAQPage and Person schema and an llms.txt file that tell search engines and AI models who you are and what you sell.
Service and content pages that open with a direct answer, written so an AI engine can quote any section on its own.
Matching LinkedIn company page, Crunchbase and Clutch profiles, linked to your site through sameAs, so every source describes you the same way.
Pitches for podcasts, articles and best-of lists, the third-party pages AI engines draw on when they recommend vendors.
A fixed set of buyer prompts checked across ChatGPT, Perplexity and Google AI Overviews to show who gets mentioned and how that changes.
AI SEO, also called AI search optimization, extends search engine optimization to the AI tools buyers now use to research vendors. Answer engine optimization (AEO) and generative engine optimization (GEO) describe the same goal from two angles: being the answer that gets quoted, and being one of the sources an AI model cites when it writes a reply.
Classic SEO still carries much of the load. Google AI Overviews draw on Google's own index, and ChatGPT, Perplexity and Claude can search the web before answering, so pages that can't be crawled or don't rank are less likely to be used. What changes is the bar for being quoted: a direct answer near the top, structured data that confirms who you are, and trusted sites that mention you alongside the topic.
Every engagement is scoped in a written proposal and follows our Diagnose, Design, Build, Optimize process. We run the same playbook on fullstackcloser.ai.

An AI SEO agency improves how a company appears in Google search and in AI-generated answers. The work covers technical SEO, AI-crawler access, structured data, llms.txt, answer-first pages, consistent third-party profiles and digital PR, plus tracking which buyer prompts in ChatGPT, Perplexity and Google AI Overviews mention the company.
Answer engine optimization (AEO) aims to make a page the direct answer that search features and AI assistants quote. Generative engine optimization (GEO) aims to make a company one of the sources ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini or Claude cite when they write an answer. The same work serves both: clear answers, schema and trusted mentions.
Yes, traditional SEO still matters. Google AI Overviews draw on Google's own index, and assistants such as ChatGPT and Perplexity often search the web before answering, so pages that can't be crawled or don't rank are less likely to be used. AI SEO builds on that foundation rather than replacing it.
llms.txt is a markdown file at the root of a website that summarizes the company and links its key pages for large language models. It is a proposed standard that not every AI engine reads yet, but it is quick to publish and gives AI tools one accurate source of facts.
Look for an agency or AI SEO consultant that covers both Google and AI answers, names the exact prompts it will track, fixes your schema and crawler rules, earns third-party mentions, and reports on qualified leads as well as rankings. Ask whether it runs the same playbook on its own site.
No agency can guarantee AI citations. AI engines choose their own sources, and the same prompt can return different answers on different days. A credible agency removes the reasons a company gets skipped, such as blocked crawlers, vague pages, missing schema and thin third-party coverage, then tracks a fixed set of prompts to show the trend.
At FullStackCloser, the AI SEO setup of technical fixes, crawler rules, schema, llms.txt and answer-first pages is scoped as a Custom Build from $3,500 per project. Ongoing content, digital PR and tracking are part of our monthly engagements, from $13,500 per month. Prices are minimums, confirmed in a written proposal.
