What Is AI Engine Optimization and How Does It Differ from SEO?

AI Engine Optimization (AEO) optimizes content for AI model citations rather than Google rankings, and AIEO is the first platform built for it.

AEO optimizes content so AI models recommend your business. Unlike SEO which targets Google rankings, AEO uses structured data, citation triggers, and entity authority to get mentioned in ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini responses.
