The gap

Three assistants, three different answers

  • Lawyers: “best divorce lawyer in Denver for a high-asset divorce”. Twelve different firms were named across three assistants. Not one firm appeared in all three.
  • Real estate: “who is the best real estate agent in Denver for first-time buyers?”. Twelve agents were named and none was recommended by every assistant. Buyers get a different shortlist each time.
  • Hotels: “best boutique hotel in Denver for a weekend trip”. Eleven hotels were named and none appeared in all three answers. Which one a traveler sees depends on the assistant.
  • Dentists: “best periodontist in Denver for gum disease treatment”. Twelve practices were named. No periodontist was recommended by all three assistants.

Across 36 answers, 126 businesses were named. 96 of them showed up in only one answer. Being named once is luck. Being named often takes work.

FAQ

Questions Denver owners ask us

What does an AI SEO company in Denver do?

It works to get your business named when people ask AI assistants for local recommendations. That means research, technical fixes, answer-first content and tracking of your citations across ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity and others.

What is generative engine optimization in Denver?

Generative engine optimization, or GEO, is the practice of making your business easy for AI assistants to find, trust and recommend. For Denver businesses, it focuses on the local questions buyers actually ask.

How is AI search optimization different from regular SEO?

Regular SEO targets a list of links. AI search optimization targets the single answer an assistant gives. The assistants also disagree, so you need a presence across several sources, not one ranking.

Why do ChatGPT, Gemini and Perplexity name different businesses?

Each assistant draws on different sources and weighs them differently. In our Denver test, 96 of 126 named businesses appeared in only one answer, and just 9 appeared in all three.

What is your guarantee?

We guarantee a minimum 30% increase in total AI citations within 90 days, measured against your own baseline. If we fall short, we keep working at no charge until we reach it.

How long is the commitment, and how much work is it for me?

The minimum is 90 days, then month to month. You approve every page we publish, and we need about an hour a week from you.

What happens in the free AI audit?

Before the call, we run the questions your buyers ask through ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity and Gemini. You see who gets named today, and where you stand.
