AI search visibility Help AI understand your business so it can recommend you

At ScaleUp Agency, a digital marketing agency, we work on AI search visibility so ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, Claude and Google AI Overviews find clear information about your business. That way, they have a source to cite when someone asks about what you do. We also work 100% remotely for brands in any Spanish- or English-speaking country.

In plain words

AI search visibility means preparing your website and online presence so tools like ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude or Perplexity understand what your business does and can cite it in their answers. It relies on clear content, structured data and consistent profiles across the web. No one can guarantee a mention, but you can raise the odds.

What does AI search say when people ask about your industry?

More and more people ask an AI assistant before they search on Google. That is why it pays to know what it says about you, or whether it mentions you at all.

  • It recommends your competitors

    Because it finds clearer information about them than about you.

  • It gives outdated or wrong details

    Hours or services that changed long ago, since nobody updated them online.

  • Your website does not explain what you do

    If the copy is vague, no AI can sum you up well.

  • You block crawlers without knowing it

    For example, a misconfigured robots.txt file can keep you out of ChatGPT search results.

  • Nobody else talks about you

    Without mentions in directories or on industry sites, your business has little to back it up.

  • Your details do not match

    So a different name or phone number on each site confuses search engines and AI tools.

What our work on AI search includes

There are no tricks here. Visibility in AI answers is built on clear, organized and well-supported information, so we work on it on four fronts.

Technical foundation

That way, search engines and AI tools can read your website without friction.

  • SEO basics and site speed
  • robots.txt open to AI search bots
  • Google Search Console
  • Bing Webmaster Tools

Your business, clearly defined

It should be clear who you are, what you do and where you serve customers.

  • Structured data for your business and services
  • A complete Google Business Profile
  • The same name, address and phone number everywhere online
  • A clear “About” page

Content that is easy to cite

Copy that directly answers what your customers ask.

  • Real FAQs from your industry
  • Clear answers from the first sentence
  • Guides built around search intent
  • Data with its source

Authority and mentions

Other sites that confirm what your website says.

  • Directories in your industry
  • Mentions on relevant sites
  • Real reviews on your Google Business Profile
  • Social profiles with the same details

What about the famous llms.txt file?

If it helps you, we prepare it too. Even so, we prefer to be honest: Google guidance on AI features makes it clear that you do not need to create special files to appear in them. That is why we focus on what actually counts.

What changes when AI understands your business

Here is the same question for two different businesses: one with no work done and one with our AI work in place. So the difference comes down to the information each assistant finds.

Which dental clinic do you recommend near me?

AI has nothing to draw on

I found several options in the area, but I do not have clear information about their services or hours. I suggest checking reviews before you decide.

Not cited

AI can name you and cite you

Your business offers orthodontics, cleanings and smile makeovers, is open Monday through Saturday and has reviews that praise its care. You can also book an appointment on its website.

yourbusiness.com

These are sample answers, since no agency controls what an AI says. Instead, we can give it clear, organized and verifiable information about your business.

How we measure progress in AI search without rankings

There is no first place in an AI answer, so we measure concrete signals. We also send you a monthly report with the changes we made and what we found.

  • Key questions in your industry First we define the questions your customers would ask, and then we check them every month in ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity and Claude.
  • Visits that come from AI We also separate them in Google Analytics 4, so we can see how many people arrive from an assistant.
  • Search Console and Bing Webmaster Tools That way we confirm your website is crawled properly, including by Bing, which Microsoft Copilot draws on, and we see which searches it shows up for.

SEO and AI search visibility work better together

Both rely on the same foundation: a clear, fast and well-structured website. That is why we offer it in two ways, depending on where you are today.

AI search only

For businesses whose website SEO is already in order.

  • Your business identity and structured data
  • Content that is easy to cite
  • Consistent mentions and profiles
  • Monthly report

SEO + AI

Also, since SEO never ends, we work on both fronts with one strategy and one investment.

  • All of our SEO services
  • All of the AI work
  • Content that works for Google and for assistants
  • One report that covers both fronts

In fact, the websites we built scored 100 for SEO in PageSpeed Insights (October 2026). That is the technical foundation we build on, although it does not measure whether an AI cites you. You can see the results on our SEO services page.

Brands we have worked with

Projects from our agency and from our founder’s career, across different industries and countries.

Not all of them worked with us on their presence in AI. Even so, they all trusted the same judgment we apply to this service.

How we build your presence in AI search

We work in five stages: first we see what assistants say about you today, and then we organize everything they read about you.

  1. Assessment

    First we ask each AI about your industry and review your website and profiles.

  2. Technical foundation

    Then we open up crawling, fix technical issues and connect Search Console and Bing.

  3. Identity and data

    Next we make your structured data, your Google Business Profile and your details match everywhere.

  4. Content and mentions

    After that, we write clear answers and earn mentions on sites in your industry.

  5. Monthly measurement

    Finally, we repeat the questions every month and show you what changed.

Frequently asked questions about AI search visibility

What people ask us most about showing up in ChatGPT, Gemini and Google AI Overviews.

What is AI search visibility?

It is the work that helps AI assistants find clear information about your business so they can mention it in their answers. It is also known as generative engine optimization (GEO) or answer engine optimization (AEO), and in practice it shares its foundation with SEO.

Do you guarantee that ChatGPT will recommend me?

No, because no agency controls what an AI answers. Instead, we work on what does depend on us: making your information clear, consistent and easy to cite. We also show you every month how the answers change.

Is AI search visibility the same as SEO?

They share the same foundation, and in fact Google says there are no additional requirements to appear in its AI features. The difference is the emphasis: here we put more work into your business identity, mentions on other sites and tracking in each assistant.

Do I need an llms.txt file?

It is not required, since Google makes it clear that you do not need special files for its AI features. Even so, if it helps you, we are happy to prepare it.

Which AI search tools do you work with?

We check ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity and Claude, as well as AI Overviews and AI Mode in Google. In general, progress in one helps in the others, because they all read public information on the internet.

How long does it take to see changes in AI search?

There is no fixed timeline, because each assistant updates its information at its own pace. That is why we measure every month and show you what changed since the previous report.

Can I hire AI search visibility without SEO?

Yes, especially if your website SEO is already in order. However, we recommend the combined SEO and AI plan, since both work on the same foundation and reinforce each other.

How do I know if AI search tools mention me?

We use a list of key questions from your industry that we check every month in each assistant. We also measure visits that come from AI in Google Analytics 4.

Do you work with businesses outside Colombia?

Yes. Although we are based in Barranquilla, Colombia, we work 100% remotely with businesses in any Spanish- or English-speaking country, in Spanish or English.

What if my business does not have a website?

Your Google Business Profile and your mentions help, but your website is the main source that assistants read. So if you do not have one, we build it with our web design service.
