When your buyers ask ChatGPT or Gemini who to work with, we make sure your name comes up. Every result on this page has a prompt next to it, so you can check it yourself.
Trusted by B2B and SaaS brands to win AI search.
ChatGPT has been handing your buyers vendor shortlists for a while now. In most of the audits we run, the client isn't on them and had no idea until we showed them.
You've spent years getting to page one of Google. Put the same question to Perplexity, though, and check the sources it lists underneath. The sites it quotes are usually smaller than yours, and some of them are three years old.
Your SEO partner knows Google inside out. How Perplexity chooses what to quote is a different question, and in our experience most SEO teams haven't looked into it yet.
Nobody on your team can say how often AI assistants mention you this month, or whether that number went up or down since last quarter.
You've already talked to an answer engine optimization agency or two. They showed you mockups and a lot of confidence, but no client you could look up.
Most B2B companies find us somewhere around this point. We set up our AEO agency for B2B SaaS and enterprise brands to deal with exactly this.

They put answers together from a handful of sources they can read and trust. Our answer engine optimization (AEO) services work on each of those inputs, from the prompts your buyers type to the outside sites the models quote. It's the same way we run our GEO work, and it fits into a broader AI search program if you need one.
A written picture of what the major AI assistants say about you today, who they name instead, and which technical problems keep your pages out of their answers.
Most marketing results live in dashboards you have to take on trust. AI visibility works differently, because you can check it yourself. Each case below comes with the prompt we track. Answers can shift a little with location and chat history, so if you see something different, let us know.
748 new paying signups per month from AI-driven discovery
Problem: On Google, MakroPRO was doing fine. In AI answers about wholesale groceries it didn't show up at all. We rebuilt the category pages for LLMs and fixed what kept crawlers out. Sixteen months on, AI-driven discovery brings in 748 new paying signups a month.
Solution: Ask ChatGPT "wholesale groceries app Thailand." MakroPRO comes up first.
56 booked sales calls per month
Problem: Thales had dozens of regional sites, product data spread across all of them, and no single version of the company an AI model could rely on. We merged the schema, lined up the knowledge graph data, and cleaned up the technical side. The result is 56 booked sales calls a month, the kind of number a sales team actually tracks. Why this mattered so much for Gemini is explained on this page.
Solution: Ask Gemini "enterprise cybersecurity solutions." Thales shows up first.
4 new enterprise clients per month, plus the top spot in ChatGPT for maritime cybersecurity, eleven months in
Problem: Cydome sells to shipping companies, where one contract can run for years. Those buyers do their homework before they call anyone, and a lot of that homework now happens in AI chat. We mapped the prompts that mattered, got Cydome into the maritime security press, and wrote the comparison content LLMs were missing. Eleven months in, Cydome signs four new enterprise clients a month and is the first name ChatGPT gives for its category. We walk through how ChatGPT chooses sources in this guide.
Solution: Ask ChatGPT "maritime cybersecurity companies." Cydome leads the list.
426 new subscribers per month attributed to AI search, across thirty-two months of compounding work
Problem: Hubble sells direct to consumers, in a category where AI models kept suggesting the old incumbents. We wrote the definitions and comparisons the models were missing and built up enough citations to give them a reason to mention Hubble. It took 32 months. Today AI search brings in 426 new subscribers a month, according to Hubble's own reporting.
Solution: Ask Perplexity "best contact lens subscription." Hubble is among the sources.
Want results like these from a team that shows its work?
We start by asking the five big AI assistants the questions your buyers ask, and writing down what they say.
Not every buyer question is worth chasing.
This is where most of the hands-on work happens.
This is where most of the hands-on work happens. We rewrite pages, add schema and entity data, and build the comparison and definition content models look for when they recommend a vendor.This is where most of the hands-on work happens. We rewrite pages, add schema and entity data, and build the comparison and definition content models look for when they recommend a vendor.
A mention in one trade publication tends to lead to the next one, and models notice when the same name keeps turning up in places they trust.
We check the same set of prompts every month, so progress is easy to see.

Run a B2B SaaS, e-commerce, cybersecurity, fintech, or professional services company with a real product and existing content. We work a lot with SaaS companies, teams on long B2B sales cycles, and fintech brands.
Want your brand named when buyers ask AI about your market.
Can give it at least three months. The first citations usually show up in that window, and the bigger numbers come later.
Measure success in sales calls and signed contracts. If a report can't connect to either, we don't spend much time on it.
Want a partner that backs its claims with live AI queries.
Don't have a website or content foundation yet and need basic SEO first.
Need results next week. Citation authority takes 60–90 days at minimum.
Are shopping on price alone, or want an answer engine optimization consultant to hand over a PDF and leave.
Only care about Google rankings and have no interest in ChatGPT, Perplexity, or Gemini.
We quote every engagement after the audit, because two companies in the same industry can need very different amounts of work.
$1,500–2,500/mo
AI answers in your category are still up for grabs. It's often where we see the quickest movement, since nobody else has started working on it.
$3,000–4,500/mo
Competitors already show up in ChatGPT or Perplexity. More prompts to fight for, more pages to restructure, and citations earned from sources the models already trust.
$5,000+/mo
Several markets or languages in a crowded category. Digital PR at scale and AI visibility reporting that feeds into your BI stack.
These figures come from what our current clients pay. They aren't fixed packages. The audit comes first, and it doesn't cost anything. Two weeks later you'll have a clear picture of where you stand in AI search, who's being recommended instead of you, and what we'd charge to fix it.
An AEO agency is who you hire when ChatGPT keeps recommending your competitors and you'd like it to mention you instead. In practice, an answer engine optimization agency fixes how your pages are written and structured, makes your company easy for models to verify, and gets you mentioned on the sites they already quote. At CGS Growth, every result we report can be checked with a live AI query.
Roughly three things: finding out which questions your buyers ask AI, making your site a source models want to quote, and getting other credible sites to talk about you. Good AEO services cover all of it, because a gap in one layer is often enough to keep you out of AI answers.
SEO decides where you rank. Our work decides whether you get quoted inside the reply. Plenty of answer engine optimization companies grew out of SEO shops, so the technical base overlaps. The content format, the sources that matter, and the way success is measured are different.
Most clients see their first citations within 60–90 days. The bigger business results, like the numbers in our case studies, usually take six to twelve months. If an answer engine optimization company promises full AI visibility in two weeks, ask how they plan to measure it.
Every month we rerun the same prompts and record how often you're mentioned, how you compare with competitors, and which sources the assistants draw on. We also tie that to signups, booked calls, and new clients.
They overlap a lot. AEO is about being the brand AI names, GEO covers generative engines in general, and LLM SEO looks at how language models read content. Most answer engine optimization AEO companies, us included, use the terms side by side, and our answer engine optimization services cover all three.
Mostly ChatGPT, Gemini, and Perplexity. Claude and Google AI Overviews are in the mix too, though how much time they get depends on your audience. The audit shows where your buyers ask their questions, and that's where most of the work goes.
Yes. When ChatGPT searches the web, it leans heavily on Bing, and Google's AI Overviews come straight out of Google's own index. If search engines can't find a page, AI assistants usually can't either. Answer engine optimization agencies and AI answer engine optimization companies that know their work treat SEO as the base everything else is built on.
It depends mostly on competition. A local business in a quiet category might pay $1,500 a month for AEO services, and a global brand fighting for the same prompts as five rivals will pay over $5,000. You'll get an exact number after the audit, which is free.
The ones with long, careful buying cycles. If your customers compare five vendors and read reviews before they talk to sales, AI assistants are already shaping that shortlist. That's true for most B2B SaaS, cybersecurity, and fintech companies, and for a lot of e-commerce too. Software companies often see the fastest payback, since one enterprise deal can cover a year of work.
Each assistant picks sources in its own way, and each market asks different questions. If you want to go deeper on one platform or one industry, start here.
