What this service actually covers
Search has fundamentally changed. Users no longer scroll through ten blue links - they ask a question and expect a direct answer. The brands that appear in those answers are not the ones with the most traffic. They are the ones with the clearest, best-structured, most credible content. AEO is the discipline of becoming that brand consistently, across every AI-powered surface your buyers use.

How Momentum Supports You
Answer engine audit
We analyze how AI engines currently cite your brand and your competitors. We identify 'answer gaps'—high-value questions your audience is asking where your brand should be the primary authority but currently isn't.
Conversational query mapping
We map the specific, conversational questions your buyers ask throughout their journey. This goes beyond keywords to understand intent and the specific 'entities' (topics, people, products) that AI models use to synthesize answers.
Structural and schema optimization
We restructure your content for machine extraction. This includes implementing advanced schema markup, organizing content into answer-ready blocks, and ensuring your site's data is easily digestible by LLM crawlers.
Citation and authority building
AI models prioritize credible, frequently-cited sources. We execute a strategy to build the external signals and 'mentions' that tell answer engines your brand is a trusted expert worth citing in their results.

FAQ
AEO (Answer Engine Optimization) is the process of optimizing content to be selected and cited by AI-powered 'answer engines' like ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google AI Overviews. While SEO focuses on ranking in a list of links, AEO focuses on providing the direct answer.
Yes. These platforms rely on indexed web content and real-time search to provide answers. By structuring your content with clear entities and verified facts, you make it significantly easier for these models to cite your brand.
Google selects AI Overviews based on clarity, credibility, and structure. Key requirements include: leading with a direct answer, using descriptive headings, implementing structured data markup, and building topical authority.
No. AEO extends SEO. Traditional SEO builds the foundation: site authority, technical health, and topical coverage. AEO optimizes the presentation layer so that content is selected and cited by AI systems.
Featured snippet and People Also Ask appearances can improve within 30 to 60 days. AI chatbot citations typically show improvement within 60 to 90 days.
