Get Cited by ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google AI. Not Just Ranked.

Quick answer

After working with Sourcy on AI search optimization, businesses appear in ChatGPT answers, Perplexity citations, and Google AI Overviews when buyers ask questions relevant to their services. This is the new front door of B2B buying — and most businesses have done nothing to optimize for it. Sourcy audits your current AI citation rate, identifies what your competitors are doing to get cited, and builds the content architecture that makes AI systems choose your business as the answer.

When your buyers ask AI who to call, your business should be the answer. Sourcy's AI search optimization gets your business cited by the AI systems your customers use — before they ever visit a search results page.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is AI search optimization?
AI search optimization (also called Answer Engine Optimization or AEO) is the practice of structuring your website content so that AI systems — ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google AI Overviews, Claude, and others — cite your business when answering user questions. Unlike traditional SEO, which focuses on ranking in a list of blue links, AI search optimization focuses on being the source that AI systems quote when a potential customer asks 'Who is the best AI automation company in Florida?' or 'What is the best insurance agency software?' If AI systems don't know your business exists, you are invisible to the growing percentage of buyers who start their research with AI.
How is AI search optimization different from traditional SEO?
Traditional SEO optimizes for ranking position in Google's search results page. AI search optimization optimizes for being cited as a source by AI systems. The tactics are different: traditional SEO focuses on keywords, backlinks, and technical factors. AI search optimization focuses on structured content that directly answers questions, schema markup that helps AI understand your business, authoritative factual statements that AI systems can quote, and brand mentions across the web that establish credibility. Both matter — but AI search is growing faster than traditional search, and most businesses have done nothing to optimize for it.
Which AI systems does Sourcy optimize for?
Sourcy's AI search optimization covers all major AI systems that influence buyer decisions: Google AI Overviews (the AI-generated answers at the top of Google search results), ChatGPT (including the Browse with Bing feature), Perplexity AI, Claude, Microsoft Copilot, and emerging AI search tools. Each system has different content preferences and citation patterns. Sourcy's optimization strategy covers all of them with a single content architecture, rather than requiring separate strategies for each platform.
What does AI search optimization involve?
Sourcy's AI search optimization service includes: a full audit of your current AI citation rate (how often AI systems mention your business), competitive analysis of which competitors are being cited and why, structured content creation using the answer block + question H2 framework that AI systems prefer, FAQ schema markup implementation, SpeakableSpecification schema for voice and AI search, brand mention building across authoritative sources, and ongoing monitoring of your AI citation rate across major AI platforms.
How do I know if AI systems are citing my business?
Sourcy tests your AI citation rate by asking the same questions your target customers ask — 'Who are the best AI automation companies in Florida?', 'What is the best insurance agency management software?', 'Who should I call for COI automation?' — across ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google AI Overviews, and Claude. We document which competitors are being cited and why, then build the content and schema architecture that gets your business cited instead. We repeat this testing monthly to track improvement.
