GEO agency Los Angeles
AI SEO for Los Angeles businesses
We asked ChatGPT, Gemini and Perplexity 11 questions your buyers ask. Their answers rarely agree. See who gets named, and how to be one of them.
The problem
Each assistant tells a different story
- Dentists: “best cosmetic dentist in Los Angeles for veneers”. Ten different practices were named across three assistants. Only one appeared in all three answers.
- Lawyers: “best criminal defense attorney in Los Angeles for a DUI”. Eight lawyers were named. Not one was recommended by all three assistants.
- Auto repair: “best auto repair shop in Los Angeles I can trust”. Seven shops were named in total, and none made it into every answer.
- Restaurants: “best sushi restaurant in Los Angeles for a date”. Twelve restaurants were named. Zero were named by all three assistants.
Across 33 answers, 118 businesses were named. Ninety of them showed up in only one assistant. Being named by one is not enough.
