- What is GEO (Generative Engine Optimization)?
- GEO is the practice of being visible and citeable inside AI-generated answers, the responses ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, Claude and Google AI Overviews give when someone asks for a recommendation. Traditional SEO optimises for a ranked list of links. GEO is about being one of the few names an AI actually gives, and being described accurately when it does.
- How is this different from a rank tracker?
- A rank tracker tells you where you sit in Google's blue links. GEO Monitor tells you whether an AI answer engine names you when a buyer asks a real question, which competitors it names instead, and which pages it cited. We do not estimate a score. We send real questions to live engines and keep the raw answers.
- Does it work for a local business, not just software?
- Yes. Tell us what you do and which city or region you serve, and the questions are written that way: best X in your city, which X should I hire, and so on. The engines answer with named businesses, and we record who they name.
- Why weekly and not daily?
- AI answers do not move meaningfully day to day. The models change every few months and the pages they cite take weeks to be re-crawled. Daily scanning mostly re-buys the same answer and adds noise that looks like change. Weekly gives a cleaner trend at a lower price, and a manual re-scan is there if you need one.
- Why am I not showing up in AI answers?
- Answer engines lean on sources they can quote with confidence: clear, consistent facts about you, and third-party pages that mention or list you. If those pages name your competitors and not you, the engine follows them. Pro shows you the exact pages, so you know where to earn a mention.
- Can you make ChatGPT rank me first?
- No. Nobody can honestly promise a placement in an AI answer. GEO Monitor measures what the engines say, stores the evidence, and shows you the gaps. What you do with the gaps is what moves the answers.
- Is the free check really free?
- Yes. Enter your website and we run three real buyer questions on ChatGPT with web search, at no cost and with no account. Results are cached for 30 days.
- Can I cancel?
- Any time. Monthly plans stop at the end of the paid month and annual plans at the end of the paid year. There is no trial and no partial refund for the active period.
