We build it. That's the difference.
Most GEO engagements end in a document. This one ends in merged pull requests.
A pull request, not a recommendation
export default function ProductPage({ product }) {- const { data } = useSWR(`/api/product/${id}`)- if (!data) return <Spinner />+ // Rendered on the server: the crawler sees the copy+ const product = await getProduct(id) + <script type="application/ld+json">+ {JSON.stringify(productSchema(product))}+ </script>The deliverable is a branch in your repository that your engineers review and merge, not a document describing one. Client-side fetching replaced with a server render the crawler can read, and the schema that makes the page an entity rather than a layout.
What lands in your repo
01 Why this exists
The backlog is where engagements die
Not a recommendation someone has to translate into code. A branch in your repo, in your review process, with your name on the merge.
An audit produces work: schema to write, pages to render server-side, templates to change, an information architecture to redraw. All of it is engineering, and all of it lands on a team that already has a roadmap.
So it queues. A quarter later the recommendations are still open, the retainer has produced documents, and everyone concludes GEO doesn't work. When what actually happened is that nothing was built.
We take that off the critical path. Our engineers work in your repository, against your review process, and the fixes ship on their own cadence rather than waiting for a slot in someone else's sprint.
02 Definition
What is Development for AI visibility?
- Development for AI visibility
- Development for AI visibility is the engineering work that makes a website legible to AI assistants: structured data, server-side rendering, template changes and information architecture, implemented in the site's own codebase. It exists because a GEO or AEO audit produces a backlog of engineering tasks, and those tasks compete for the same product roadmap as everything else a team is shipping.
From recommendation to pull request
The deliverable is a branch your engineers review and merge, not a document describing one.
From your roadmap to ours
The work leaves your team's critical path. Fixes ship on their own cadence instead of waiting for a sprint slot.
From a rebuild to a template change
Most sites need markup, rendering and structure fixed rather than replaced. A rebuild is the most expensive way to solve a problem a template change covers.
03 What’s included
Four things land. All of them are built, not filed.
01
Fixes in your repo
Branches against your codebase with the schema, rendering and template changes. Reviewed by your team, merged on your process, no separate stack to maintain.
02
Rendering and performance
Content moved into the server response, Core Web Vitals kept honest, and the framework configured so future pages inherit the fix rather than needing it applied again.
03
Information architecture
The URL structure, internal linking and page-type design that lets both a crawler and a model understand what the site covers and which page answers what.
04
A rebuild, when it's the answer
Occasionally the platform itself blocks the work. When that's true we'll say so, show you why, and build the replacement, and when it isn't true, we'll say that instead.
04 How it runs
In order, and in the open.
Step 01
Scope against the audit
The backlog turned into tickets with an order, sized honestly, so you can see what's a day and what's a quarter before anything starts.
Step 02
Ship the fast fixes
Schema, crawler policy and rendering land first. They're cheap, they're the preconditions for everything else, and they can be crawled while the larger work is in progress.
Step 03
Build the structural work
Templates, architecture and page types, in the order the source map says will matter, reviewed by your engineers throughout.
05 The difference
Handover model vs This engagement
| Handover model | This engagement | |
|---|---|---|
| Where work lands | Your team's backlog | A branch in your repository |
| Timeline | Behind the product roadmap | Its own cadence |
| Review | None, or after the fact | Your engineers, before merge |
| What remains | A document | Code your team maintains |
06 Who it’s for
Four markets, four different questions.
B2B software
Buyers research through assistants long before a demo. The questions are comparative, alternatives, integrations, fit for team size, and the answer names two or three vendors.
DTC and ecommerce
Category questions now start with an assistant. “Best X for Y” returns a shortlist, and being absent from it costs the consideration set, not just the click.
Healthcare
Trust and provenance dominate. Assistants lean hard on sources they can attribute, which makes structured, citable content and clean entity signals disproportionately valuable.
NDIS and disability services
Participants and coordinators ask assistants for local providers. The answers lean on directories, reviews and clearly structured service pages, which most providers have never marked up.
07 Questions
What buyers ask about this one.
Something not covered? Ask us directly and we’ll answer straight.
Why can't our own developers do this?
Do you need access to our repository?
What if we're on Shopify or Webflow?
How is this priced?
Will this affect our site's performance?
Do you work in our codebase or your own?
What stacks do you work in?
Do we need a rebuild?
Next step
Start with what your site already says.
The free checker fetches your site the way the assistants do and scores what comes back. It takes a minute, and it makes the first call a conversation about your findings rather than about our process.
08 The rest of the work
Managed AEO + SEO
The sources assistants quote and the pages search still ranks, one engagement, both surfaces.
Technical AEO
Markup that tells models what your business is, on pages that render without JavaScript.
AI Search Analytics
Prompt-level reporting: where you're named, where a competitor is, and which sources built the answer.
AI Visibility Recovery
You were cited and now you aren't. We trace what changed and rebuild the citation path.
Digital PR
Placements written to be quoted, on the publications models already draw answers from.
