AI search and TopGeo, answered clearly

Straight answers about GEO, managed publishing, measurement, pricing, data, and what happens when the service ends.

GEO is the practice of making a brand understandable, citable, and recommendable when buyers ask AI engines such as ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, and Claude for answers or vendor shortlists. Traditional SEO optimises for search rankings. GEO focuses on inclusion and evidence inside generated answers.

AEO structures content so an answer engine can extract a clear, supported response to a specific question. It overlaps with GEO, but GEO also covers brand entities, citations, competitive visibility, and how a brand is represented across AI-generated answers.

SEO and GEO work together, but they measure different outcomes. SEO focuses on rankings and organic clicks. GEO measures whether a brand appears in an AI answer, where it appears, which sources support it, and whether that answer creates a path to an enquiry.

There is no universal indexing or citation timeline. It depends on the engine, query, existing authority, crawl frequency, and evidence available on and beyond your site. TopGeo establishes a baseline first, then reports observed changes without promising a fixed ranking date.

TopGeo supports monitoring across ChatGPT, Google AI Overviews, Gemini, Perplexity, Claude, Microsoft Copilot, Grok, DeepSeek, and Meta AI. The engines used in an engagement are selected around the buyer questions and markets that matter to that customer.

TopGeo runs a managed loop: SEE where your brand is absent or poorly supported; PUBLISH buyer-ready pages through TopGeo's managed edge on your domain; CAPTURE enquiries on those pages; and DELIVER the resulting lead data and performance reporting. The visibility layer decides what should be published next.

TopGeo's visibility score combines appearance rate, position quality, citation strength, platform coverage, and competitive context. Reports also preserve the prompts, answer evidence, cited sources, and page-level actions so the score is not a black box.

Yes. A workspace can track relevant competitors across prompts and engines, including mentions, average position, share of voice, sentiment, citations, and changes over time.

The current managed plans are Basic at $1,200 per month, Professional at $2,500 per month, and custom Enterprise. Annual billing is shown on the pricing page. Final scope depends on page volume, markets, and implementation requirements, and is agreed before work starts.

The managed fee covers research and monitoring, page production, TopGeo-hosted delivery through the managed edge, ongoing refresh work, lead capture, and reporting for the agreed scope. It is not a per-lead invoice and it is not prompt-credit pricing.

No. TopGeo is currently sold as a managed B2B service. The starting point is an audit call and a scoped engagement, not a generic self-serve visibility trial.

Contract length and exit terms are stated in the proposal for the selected plan. Your lead data remains yours. Published pages are a TopGeo-hosted managed service and do not become a customer-owned software asset automatically when the service ends.

No. TopGeo publishes under an agreed path or subdomain using a managed edge/proxy setup. Your existing site and CMS stay in place, while TopGeo operates and maintains the additional pages.

The customer owns its lead data and can export it. The published pages appear on the customer's domain but are hosted and maintained by TopGeo as part of the managed service. They should not be described as a customer-owned CMS asset.

TopGeo uses encrypted connections, role-based access, and isolated workspaces. Payment processing is handled by Razorpay. The specific data-processing and retention terms for an engagement are documented in the contract and privacy policy.

Yes. TopGeo supports team roles and multi-workspace management, including agency teams that manage multiple B2B clients.
