AIVO STANDARD™ - AI VISIBILITY OPTIMIZATION


By mid-2026, AI search will handle over 200 billion high-intent queries annually. While that represents less than a quarter of total search volume, its disproportionate value — with conversion rates up to 23× higher than Google organic— makes it the single most important traffic source to secure.

Traditional SEO cannot guarantee presence in AI search. Large language models retrieve and cite from their own trusted knowledge graphs, not the live web. AI Visibility Optimization (AIVO) ensures your brand is:

  • Present in LLM recall layers
  • Consistently cited across trusted sources
  • Indexed with complete, machine-readable entity data
  • Monitored for visibility across ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, Perplexity

Waiting until AI search is “big enough” is the wrong play. Once entrenched, recall bias makes it extremely hard for late entrants to gain exposure.
