TapasSEO's GEO / AEO Discovery & Visibility Audit is an AI Search Visibility audit by Leverage (20+ years, 50+ countries). We run your business-critical queries across ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google AI Overviews, and Gemini, capture citation screenshots and evidence cards, score your AEO (Answer Engine Optimization), AI Visibility, and GEO (Generative Engine Optimization) readiness, check whether AI engines can actually reach and read your site, fact-check what they say about your brand, and prescribe the schema, entity, and content changes that move citation rates. $397, 5-7 business days, transparent pricing, no surprises.
Both are about appearing when AI engines answer questions. Each requires a different signal stack — we cover both.
Featured snippets, “People Also Ask” boxes, “Position Zero” results — the answers Google places above the regular results. We score every priority page on its eligibility, audit your FAQ / HowTo / Article schema, review your answer-first structure, and tell you exactly which queries you can win.
Will ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google AI Overviews, and Gemini cite your site when someone asks for recommendations in your space? We test the actual queries that matter to your business across all four engines, capture the citation screenshots, identify which competitors AI prefers, and prescribe the entity, schema, and content changes that get you mentioned.
Each engine has different ranking signals and different citation preferences. We test all four because your buyers use all four.
OpenAI search + GPT browse mode. Largest AI assistant by user base.
Citation-first AI search. Source rankings and snippet attribution analyzed.
Now appearing on the majority of high-intent queries. Citation eligibility scored.
Google’s consumer AI. Tested across both search-grounded and conversational modes.
Ten questions, answered with evidence — not a generic checklist.
For each priority query, we capture how ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google AI Overviews, and Gemini respond — as page captures for Google and as evidence cards built from the stored answer for the rest, so every claim traces back to a real, recorded run.
AEO readiness (featured snippets, Position Zero, answer-first structure), AI Visibility (how often you're cited, named, or recommended across runs), and GEO readiness (can AI reach, read, and trust your site).
We fact-check the claims ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, and Google AI Overviews make about your brand against your own site — flagging contradictions, sentiment, and whether you have a Wikidata / Knowledge Graph entry to correct them with.
Which sources AI prefers in your category and why, broken down by source type per engine — the patterns that decide who gets cited, and the gaps you can close.
Real third-party pages the engines already cite in your category that don't list you yet — each with a specific suggested action: pitch inclusion, claim a directory listing, or request a correction.
A crawler-access matrix and firewall/WAF test per AI bot (GPTBot, ClaudeBot, PerplexityBot, and more), a rendered-vs-raw check for JS-heavy sites, plus entity and schema extractability.
Every finding ranked by impact, confidence, and effort, grouped into 30 / 60 / 90-day windows, each tied to the finding it solves and who owns it (your developer, your content team, or Leverage).
Numbered steps a non-expert can follow, with the copy-paste material itself — robots.txt lines, validated JSON-LD, heading and answer-block examples, outreach email wording — plus how to verify each fix worked.
A designed PDF report, plus a bundle with every fix's full how-to, the JSON-LD schema files, and fixes.csv / citations.csv to hand straight to your team.
Brand name and competitor names redacted for client privacy — the scores, tables, and methodology are exactly as delivered.

TapasSEO is the productized arm of Leverage, a boutique SEO consultancy with 20+ years of experience across 50+ countries and 20+ languages. AI search visibility is the layer everyone’s now scrambling to understand — we’ve been auditing it for the last two years across enterprise engagements.
SEO is about ranking in traditional Google search results. AEO (Answer Engine Optimization) is about appearing when Google answers a question directly — featured snippets, People Also Ask, Position Zero. GEO (Generative Engine Optimization) is about being cited in AI-generated answers from ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google AI Overviews, and Gemini. The three layers overlap but each requires different signals; this audit covers both AEO and GEO.
ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google AI Overviews, and Gemini. We run the actual queries that matter to your business across all four engines, capture the citation screenshots, identify which sources AI is citing instead of you, and analyze why.
A ~15-page report plus a developer bundle: citation screenshots and evidence cards across the 4 AI engines, three scores (AEO readiness, AI Visibility, GEO readiness), a fact-check of what AI says about your brand, an AI-crawler access and firewall audit, up to 15-20 addressable third-party sources with a suggested action each, and a fix plan ranked and scheduled across 30/60/90 days with ready-to-paste robots.txt, JSON-LD, and outreach wording.
AI search traffic is up 527% year-over-year. More buyers ask ChatGPT, Perplexity, or Google AI Overviews for recommendations every week instead of scrolling through 10 blue links. Sites that show up in those generated answers capture the click. Sites that do not are invisible to that traffic, even if they rank well in classic search.
A regular SEO audit grades your site for traditional Google rankings. This audit grades you for AI search visibility — a different signal stack (entity clarity, schema coverage, citation-worthiness, answer-first content structure) tested against actual queries on actual AI engines, with a fixed scoring formula and citation evidence for every finding. The two are complementary; this is the layer most SEO audits do not cover.
AI search traffic is up 527% year-over-year, and buyers increasingly ask ChatGPT, Perplexity, or Google AI Overviews for recommendations instead of scrolling search results. If your site is absent from those answers, you're invisible to that traffic regardless of your Google rankings. The audit tells you exactly where you stand across all 4 engines, who AI recommends instead of you, and the specific fixes that change it — the same methodology Leverage uses for enterprise AI-visibility engagements, for a fixed $397.
Transparent pricing, no surprises — fixed scope and price, documented before you order.
You receive the full deliverable from senior consultants — the audit, blueprint, plan, or instructions for your team to execute. Your team (or your dev) handles implementation. If you want hands-on implementation, upgrade to Leverage → — they will quote you a custom price for done-for-you delivery.
