SEO means search engine optimization. It's the work that helps you show up when someone searches Google. Google gives them a list of links and a map, and they pick.
Early access. Launching first in the US.
Does AI cite you? Let's look.
If you're missing from the map or AI answers, we'll find out why.
When people ask AI who's good at what you do, some businesses get named and some don't. We'll look at how you show up on Google, Google Maps, and in AI answers, fix most of what's missing with your OK, and look again every month.

The short version
Two ways people find you now
GEO means generative engine optimization. Same idea, for AI answers like ChatGPT. But AI doesn't hand over a list of ten. It names a few. If you're not one of them, you're not in the conversation.
Try it yourself. Ask ChatGPT, "Who's the best [your kind of work] near me?" Then search the same thing on Google and see whether your name comes up. Our job is to find out how often it does, figure out what's missing, and fix it.
Your Fix List
Everything Google and AI couldn't find about you, in one list.
Before Google or ChatGPT recommends a business, it looks for proof. What you do, where you work, when you're open, what customers say, and whether other sites mention you. When those things are missing or don't match, you get skipped.
Your Fix List collects every gap we find, across search and AI, in one place. Then we'll work through it. We'll handle most items, and a few will need you. Nothing goes live without your OK.
Your Fix List · 2 of 4 done

How it works
We look. We fix. We look again.
Look
We'll check third-party search data and AI answers for the questions your customers ask, more than once, and see whether your name comes up.

Next month we'll check again. You'll see what moved and what didn't. Then we'll pick the next fixes.
The subscription will repeat this every month.
The map
On the map, too.
If customers find you nearby, Google's map is often where the call starts. We'll check what the map shows about you: your hours, your service area, your photos, your reviews. When something's off, it goes on your Fix List.

Your website, too.
Your site tells customers what you do, and AI answers can read it too. We'll look at what it says, check it against your map listing, and see whether AI answers quote it. When something's off, it goes on your Fix List.
- Does your site say what you do and where?Yes

What we're building
Your profile, your reviews, your AI visibility. In one place.
We're building CiteLook to help authorized businesses manage their Google Business Profile and show up in AI answers. It's B2B software for business owners and the people they authorize. The plan is to help you keep your profile up to date, reply to your reviews, and track how you show up in AI search. It will work only with businesses you own or are authorized to manage. We won't change anything without your OK. Planned

This month compared with last month.
Planned. Sample data.How we'll measure
AI changes its mind. So we ask again.
Ask ChatGPT the same question twice and you can get two different lists. So one answer doesn't tell you much. We plan to ask the same questions many times and tell you how often you come up, like "4 of 10 times." If we don't have enough data, we'll say so instead of guessing.

Questions
- Is CiteLook live?
- Not yet. We're building it and launching first in the US. Join the waitlist and we'll email you when there's something real to try.
- What's the difference between SEO and GEO?
- SEO is about showing up on Google. GEO is about showing up in AI answers, like ChatGPT. Google shows a list. AI usually names just a few. We'll work on both.
- How much of the work is on me?
- Very little. We'll do most of it. A few things only you can do, like asking your recent customers for a review, and we'll make those easy. Nothing goes live without your OK.
- Can you guarantee rankings?
- No. Nobody controls what Google or AI shows, so anyone who promises a ranking is guessing. What we can do is fix what's missing, check again every month, and show you what changed.
- Will I get more customers?
- That's what we're working toward. We can't promise that, and we won't. What we can promise is the work.
- Do you use fake reviews?
- Never. Reviews come from real customers or not at all.
- Are the numbers on this page real?
- No, they're sample data. The scenes on this page show a goal. They aren't results. And when we don't know something, we'll say so.
- How much will it cost?
- We haven't set pricing yet. You'll see it before you're asked to pay for anything.
- How do I reach you?
- Email us at [email protected]. A person reads every message.
Get on our list. We'll start on yours.
We'll do the work, show you every change, and check back every month. Join the waitlist and we'll tell you when it's ready.
