AEO stands for answer engine optimization. It is the process of making changes ("optimizations") to your site so that AI engines are more likely to recommend, mention or cite your brand in its answers.
Nowadays buyers don't usually search Google and scroll through pages of blue links. They ask ChatGPT, Claude or their favorite AI assistant, go back and forth for a bit, and make a buying decision from there.
Even if they do search Google, it will often show "AI Mode" at the top.
AEO is like SEO (search engine optimization) but for this new "search" experience: AI answers.
AEO goes by other names, like GEO (generative engine optimization) and LLM SEO. These are all basically the same. AEO software, an AEO platform and an answer engine optimization tool are all generally the same too: they help you measure whether the engines recommend you, and tell you what to change.
AEO is also quite similar to traditional SEO, with a spin. It's based on the same basic pillars: measurement/research, technical optimization, content, and external mentions/links.
3 steps: measure, find the gaps, close them.
Peak Answer runs your buying questions on ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, Gemini, Google AI Overviews and Copilot, every week, and the top ones daily. Each question is run multiple times to improve the sample size.
Peak Answer marks every tracked question with who gets named in your place. It also shows why the engines prefer them, which is nearly always a page somebody else wrote about your category.
Peak Answer writes articles against the questions you are losing and pushes them to your CMS for publishing. It also finds you opportunities to get on third-party listicles, roundups and other pages the engines already quote and shows you how to earn those placements.
Peak Answer supports the following engines:
Here are a few factors to consider:
6 is a good number right now: ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, Gemini, Google AI Overviews and Copilot. Some tools only support 1 or 2 different engines, so this is something to check.
Weekly is the minimum. It should also ask the same question more than once per cycle to improve the sample size.
Check that it stores the raw answer text and the cited URLs. Generated question sets are a fine start. The questions that matter most to your business are usually ones only you know to ask.
Some tools only report and some do the work, often at a similar price. Look for writing, placements and technical fixes.
Check the renewal price as well as the headline. Peak Answer is free for 7 days and then $49 a month. It charges automatically until you cancel. The pricing page states this beside every button.
Look for an API or an MCP server, so the results can feed your own reports and the AI tools you already use.
