The AI visibility vocabulary, without the fluff.
Making your brand and content easy for AI answer engines to understand, cite and recommend when buyers ask questions.
The broader practice of optimizing for generative AI surfaces, from chat assistants to AI Overviews, so generated answers include you.
Any system that responds with a generated answer instead of a list of links: ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, Google AI Overviews, Copilot.
The question a buyer asks an AI. Prompts are to AEO what keywords were to SEO, but conversational and intent-rich.
A group of prompt variants with the same underlying intent, tracked together so trends are readable.
A source an answer engine references when it answers. Earning citations for your URLs is how content wins authority.
Where your URL sits in an answer's source list: first, top three, buried or absent. Position affects clicks and trust.
A file on your domain that tells AI systems what your site contains and how to use it. Table stakes for AI readability.
Machine-readable markup (JSON-LD) that lets engines parse your products, articles and FAQs precisely instead of guessing.
Visits influenced by AI systems: humans arriving from answers, plus indexing and training crawlers reading your site.
A human session that started from an AI answer rather than a search results page or an ad.
A distinct thing engines recognize: your product, your founder, a feature, a category. Missing entities mean vaguer answers.
