What we measured

The three assistants rarely agree

  • Dentists: “best dental implant specialist in San Antonio”. 13 different businesses were named across the three assistants. Not one appeared in all three answers.
  • Food: “best Mexican restaurant in San Antonio”. 13 businesses were named. None showed up in all three answers. Your place may be missing from two of them.
  • Travel: “best hotel on the River Walk in San Antonio”. 10 different hotels were named, and no single hotel was named by all three assistants.
  • Real estate: “which real estate team in San Antonio sells the most homes?”. 11 different teams were named. No team was named by all three assistants.

Across 30 answers, the assistants named 113 businesses. Only 3 were named by all three. A buyer's answer depends on which assistant they happen to open.

FAQ

San Antonio AI SEO questions, answered

What is AI SEO in San Antonio?

AI SEO is the work of getting your business named when buyers ask AI assistants for a recommendation. For San Antonio, that means ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, Claude and Google AI Overviews, not just a search results page.

What is generative engine optimization?

Generative engine optimization, or GEO, is how you earn mentions and citations inside AI-written answers. It covers clear answer-first content, technical access for AI crawlers, and trusted sources that assistants already pull from.

How is AI search optimization different from regular SEO?

Regular SEO aims for a ranked link. AI search optimization aims to be the business the assistant names in its answer. The assistants often disagree, so one strong ranking does not carry across all of them.

Do you offer Google AI Overview optimization in San Antonio?

Yes. Google AI Overviews is one of the assistants we work on, alongside ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity and Claude. We track how often each one cites you and report it against your baseline.

Why did the assistants name different businesses?

Each assistant draws on different sources and weighs them differently. In our San Antonio test, 91 of 113 named businesses came from only one assistant. That gap is the opportunity.

What does the 30% guarantee mean?

We guarantee a minimum 30% increase in your total AI citations within 90 days, measured against your own baseline. If we do not hit it, we keep working at no charge until we do.

What happens in the free AI audit?

Before the call, we run the questions your buyers ask through ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity and Gemini. Then we walk you through who gets named, who gets cited, and where you stand.
