Get found on Google Maps and in AI answers

Answer engine optimization (AEO) means making sure your business is named, with the facts right, when someone asks Google or an AI assistant for a business like yours. We find out where you stand, fix what is wrong, and measure again.

Illustration: what a customer sees when they ask ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Google AI Overviews or Perplexity for a business like yours. The business names are made up.

01 · The work

What we do for local businesses

  • Your Google profile and Maps.Google ranks local results mainly on relevance, distance and popularity. We fix the parts you control: category, hours, services, photos and reviews.
  • Your website.Pages for the services you really sell, with details search engines and AI can read.
  • Listings that agree.Your name, address, phone and hours the same on Google, Yelp and other sites, including sites you did not create.
  • AI answers.We ask AI assistants the questions your customers ask in your city, and read what they say about you.
  • Monthly measurement.We ask the same questions again and show you what changed. AI answers vary, so we ask more than once.

02 · One result

One public example: on the same questions, three of the five AI assistants we measure went from naming a local service business on the SF Peninsula in 6% of answers to 19% a month later. One business, one month, not a promise. Read the case study

03 · Your trade

Find your trade

Contractors and remodelers

Homeowners plan a remodel for months, collect several bids, and search by project and city, like "kitchen remodel San Jose". We make your Google profile, job photos and reviews say what you really do and where, and check what AI says when someone asks about you by name. We report city by city and never promise a map spot far from your base.

Barbershops

We check that your hours, services and prices match on Google, Yelp and your booking page, and fix any that do not. We write review replies for your approval, in each customer's language, and can build a simple English and Spanish website.

Tattoo shops

We check what AI assistants say when someone asks for a shop by tattoo style or for walk-ins. We make your styles, walk-in policy and hours the same everywhere. Listing sites you did not create sometimes show services you do not offer; with your OK, we help correct them. Artists are named only with their OK and yours.

Auto repair

Most repairs are not emergencies, so drivers compare shops. We collect the facts drivers check, in writing: warranty and its limits, how estimates work, makes you do and do not service, year started. We publish only what you confirm, and follow California's auto repair advertising rules.

Towing and roadside

A stranded driver needs help now. Your Google profile should show your real hours and services under the right category; Google does not allow a towing category for a business that does not tow. We read Maps results at a fixed time while you are open, and trace any wrong AI claim to its source.
