PacedRevenue's AI search visibility service makes a B2B company's expertise easy for ChatGPT, Perplexity and Google's AI features to find, trust and quote. PacedRevenue checks what AI assistants say about you, rewrites key pages with clear answers, sources and numbers, and opens the site to AI crawlers. PacedRevenue re-runs the check monthly and reports the visits AI assistants send you.
ChatGPT recommends our competitors.
Ask it who solves the problem you solve, and it lists other firms, sometimes ones you've never heard of.
AI gets what we do wrong.
An assistant describes your company from an old page or someone else's summary, and buyers believe it.
Our site might be blocking the bots.
A setting added years ago can keep AI crawlers out, and nobody on the team has checked.
We can't tell if AI sends us anyone.
Visits from ChatGPT land in your analytics as a referral nobody reports on, or as direct traffic.
Start somewhere else if
We put the questions your buyers ask to the AI assistants they use, and record who gets named, who gets cited and what's said about you. That's the baseline every later check is measured against.
Being named in the answer is part of Position, the first of the five gates a sale has to clear.
An assistant can only quote a page it can reach. OpenAI says sites that block its OAI-SearchBot won't appear in ChatGPT's search answers, Perplexity runs its own crawler for its results, and Google's AI features only use pages that are indexed. We check your site's settings, sitemap and indexing so every page that matters can be read.
OpenAI documents its search crawler, and Google its AI features.
In a study accepted at KDD 2024, adding quotations, statistics and cited sources to a page raised its visibility in AI-generated answers by up to 40% in the researchers' test setup. We rewrite your key pages around a short, direct answer, backed by your own numbers, named sources and quotes from people who know.
The study is GEO: Generative Engine Optimization, and we wrote up how to get cited by ChatGPT.
Assistants build answers from many sources, and Google says its AI features can run several related searches to put one answer together. So what your site, your LinkedIn and your profiles elsewhere say about you has to agree. When it does, the answer describes you the way you would.
The pages themselves are B2B SEO, and the LinkedIn side is thought leadership.
Every month we ask the same questions again and show you what changed. ChatGPT tags the visits it sends with utm_source=chatgpt.com, and Bing Webmaster Tools now reports how often a site is cited in Copilot answers, so the traffic AI sends you shows up in your analytics and your CRM.
Bing's AI Performance report is in public preview.
As the platforms and Gartner report it
“There are no additional requirements to appear in AI Overviews or AI Mode, nor other special optimizations necessary.”
“Examples, data, and cited sources help build trust when content is reused in AI-generated answers.”
ChatGPT marks the visits it sends with a tag your analytics can read, and Bing reports how often Copilot cites you. We carry those visits into your CRM, so an enquiry that began with an AI answer is counted as one, and you can see whether the work is paying.
Optimising for AI search has produced a lot of confident advice with little behind it. The few things that are documented point the same way. Google says its AI features need no special markup or AI file, only pages that are indexed and eligible to show a snippet. OpenAI says placement in ChatGPT search isn't guaranteed. And a peer-reviewed study found that quotations, statistics and cited sources made pages more visible in AI answers. So the work is making your expertise easy to reach, easy to check and easy to quote.

|---|---|---|---|---|
| How do you know what AI says about you now? | We ask your buyers' questions across the assistants they use and record who's named and cited, before changing anything. | Most run a tool that samples prompts, which is a good start. | Someone asks ChatGPT now and then. | You can ask it directly. It won't tell you what it says to anyone else. |
| What gets changed? | Your key pages, rewritten around direct answers with your own numbers, sources and quotes, and the settings that let crawlers in. | Content and markup, depending on the agency. | Whatever they have time for. | It can rewrite pages. It can't supply the evidence that makes them worth quoting. |
| How is it measured? | Monthly checks of what the assistants say, plus AI referral visits and enquiries in your CRM. | Usually a visibility score from their tool. | Rarely, beyond the occasional manual check. | Only if you set up the tracking yourself. |
| Does it help Google search too? | Yes. Google's AI features draw on pages that already qualify for Google Search, so the same work helps both. | Usually, if the agency also does SEO. | It depends on their skills. | It can help draft. The technical fixes are still yours. |
| Is this the same as ChatGPT Ads? | No. Ads buy a placement beside the answer, and this work earns a place in it. We run both and measure them separately. | Usually organic only. | Separate budgets, if at all. | An agent can set up ads. Being cited takes evidence. |
Still weighing it up?
Book a callAI search visibility is how often, and how accurately, AI assistants such as ChatGPT, Perplexity, Copilot and Google's AI Overviews mention and cite a company when buyers ask them questions. PacedRevenue improves it by making your expertise easy for those assistants to find, read and quote, then checking what they say about you every month.
Generative engine optimisation, or GEO, is shaping content so that AI systems which write answers are more likely to use and cite it. A GEO study accepted at KDD 2024 found that quotations, statistics and cited sources raised a page's visibility in AI answers by up to 40% in a test setup. PacedRevenue treats GEO and answer engine optimisation (AEO) as one job.
No, and nobody can. OpenAI says placement in ChatGPT search isn't guaranteed, and advertisers can't shape its answers either. What PacedRevenue controls is whether the assistants can reach your site, whether your pages carry evidence worth quoting, and whether you can see the results, checked every month.
Google reported in May 2026 that AI Overviews has over 2.5 billion monthly users and AI Mode over 1 billion. OpenAI reported more than 900 million weekly ChatGPT users in March 2026. Among business buyers, Gartner found that 45% of those it surveyed had used generative AI, mainly to gather information on vendors and products.
Google says its AI features need no special AI text files or schema markup, only pages that are indexed and eligible for a snippet. Structured data still helps search engines understand a page, and PacedRevenue adds it where it describes what's on the page. The bigger lever is the content: clear answers, real numbers and sources an assistant can check.
No. ChatGPT Ads buy a sponsored placement beside the answer, and OpenAI keeps ads separate from what ChatGPT says. AI search visibility earns a mention inside the answer. PacedRevenue runs both: ChatGPT Ads through Pipeline Generation for meetings now, and AI search visibility for being found and trusted over time.
Book a call. We'll ask the assistants the questions your buyers ask, show you what comes back, and tell you honestly what's worth fixing first.
You have the expertise. We'll make it easy to quote.
