20 minutes · Limited capacity
Led by Zoltan Bedocs, an AI search consultant with 12+ years in search and a 98% success rate driving brand visibility across AI platforms.
When prospects ask AI tools who to trust, compare, or buy from, they may never reach your website. Traditional search rankings still matter, but ranking alone no longer decides who wins the category.
The new question is: does AI understand your brand well enough to recommend it?
Prompt: “best [category] tools 2026”
The top tools in 2026 are Competitor A, Competitor B, and Competitor C. They're cited across G2, Reddit, and industry roundups for ease of use, integrations, and pricing transparency…
Your brand: not mentioned in 84 of 142 priority prompts.
Your category gets queried hundreds of times a day inside Google AI Overviews, ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, and Perplexity. But your brand isn't in the response, and buyers move on before they ever hear your name.
Answer engines lean on a small set of trusted sources. When your competitors are referenced and you aren't, AI defaults to recommending them, even when your offering is stronger.
Without prompt-level tracking, you can't tell what AI says about you, what sources it relies on, or whether your work this quarter actually moved the answers.
Three engagement tiers, one operator. Pick the level of involvement that fits where you are. We'll move from there.

A focused, senior-led engagement. We shape your AI search strategy around the category you compete in, prioritize the highest-leverage fixes first, translate technical findings into executive-ready decisions, and give your team a roadmap they can actually execute.
Prompt-level data, not vanity dashboards. You see exactly where AI mentions you, where it doesn't, and why.
Every finding maps to a specific page, schema field, source, or piece of content, with effort sized for who has to do it.
We rank fixes by likely impact on AI visibility and revenue influence, not alphabetically. Highest-leverage moves go first.
Findings translated into one-pagers leadership can act on, without making them learn the difference between RAG and retrieval scoring.

In their words
“We were invisible in ChatGPT for our own category. Zoltan mapped the exact prompts our buyers ask, fixed our entity signals and schema, and within three months we were getting recommended alongside companies three times our size. Best consulting spend this year by a mile.”
“Our content team published nonstop and AI still described us wrong. Zoltan showed us why, rebuilt our schema and internal links, and now Gemini and Perplexity cite our documentation when buyers compare vendors. Pipeline from AI referrals is up every quarter since.”
“I expected another audit deck that would sit in a shared drive. Instead we got a prioritized fix list our developers actually shipped. Zoltan explained every recommendation in plain language and stayed on the calls until the work was done. We signed for a second engagement before the first one ended.”
AI Search Optimization makes your brand easy for AI systems to find, understand, cite, and recommend. You will also see it called AEO (Answer Engine Optimization) or AI SEO. It covers how Google AI Overviews, ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, and Perplexity read your category, your brand, and your competitors, and what it takes to shape the answers they give.
SEO earns rankings on search results pages. AI Search Optimization earns mentions and citations inside AI-generated answers, which increasingly replace the results page. The two share foundations like technical health, authority, and clear content, but AI Search Optimization adds entity clarity, retrievability, and citation strategy on top.
Yes, and that is where most engagements start. We audit and restructure the pages already attracting traffic and backlinks before creating anything new. Sharper entity signals, cleaner internal links, and better schema on those pages usually deliver the fastest gains.
We track a fixed set of high-intent prompts across Google AI Overviews, ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, and Perplexity, then score mention rate, citation share, answer inclusion, source coverage, and competitor share of voice. You receive the findings as a prioritized diagnostic, not a dashboard you have to decode.
Audit findings land within 2 to 4 weeks. From there, schema, on-page, and entity fixes can move answers within weeks, while authority and citation work compounds over months.
Most recommendations sit within reach of your web or content team. A developer helps with schema, internal linking, and CMS templates, and every item is sized for who touches it and how long it takes.
Yes. The entity clarity, schema, internal linking, and authority work that wins AI citations also lifts traditional rankings, because search engines and AI systems read the same signals.
The right approach depends on your industry, your competitors, and where you already stand in Google AI Overviews, ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, and Perplexity. Across hundreds of engagements, the strategies that hold up long term start with a clear-eyed diagnostic, not guesswork. Book a call and you'll leave with a plan built around your market, not a generic template.
Engagements are limited and selective. The first call runs 20 minutes. Use it to talk through fit, scope, and whether AISearchConsult is the right partner for your team.
