Traditional SEO is slow - built for compounding, not momentum. Generative Engine Optimization gets your brand mentioned much quicker.
Why You Should Care
Early-stage companies face unique challenges that make traditional SEO insufficient. AI platforms require different signals to cite emerging brands — and startups that build these early gain lasting competitive advantage.
Limited Brand Recognition
AI defaults to known competitors—we build signals that get your startup cited anyway.
Resource Constraints
GEO delivers visibility faster than SEO without requiring massive ad budgets or years of waiting.
Critical Growth Window
Decision-makers discover solutions through AI now—early visibility shapes your growth trajectory.
How It Works
How AI Decides Which Startups to Surface
I models don't rank pages—they cite trusted sources. Here are the three credibility pillars that determine if your startup gets recommended.

Process
Our GEO Process for Startups
Visibility, trust, and traction — engineered for founders who need early recognition across AI search and investor discovery.
Signal Mapping
We begin by identifying the authority signals that matter most for your startup: founder expertise, product story, early traction markers. These become the foundation AI systems use to determine credibility.
01
Generative Alignment
Next, we craft and structure content so it’s not just human-readable, but model-readable. This means shaping narratives, proof points, and digital presence so generative engines can easily surface your startup in responses.
02
Recognition Acceleration
Finally, we deploy and monitor these signals across the right surfaces. The goal isn’t just mentions — it’s sustained recognition. By tracking how AI systems respond, we refine your GEO footprint so your brand shows up consistently in high-value contexts.
