Get your business cited and recommended by ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini and Perplexity — not just ranked on Google.
Last updated: July 2026
A growing share of "which agency should I hire" and "how much does X cost" questions never reach a Google results page at all — they go straight to ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini or Perplexity, and the AI either names a business or it doesn't. Ranking #1 on Google does not automatically make you the answer an AI gives.
GEO is the discipline of making a business AI-citable: crawler access, structured/schema data, entity clarity, and — the part almost every competitor skips — third-party citation volume and published primary data an AI can actually quote.
Generalist GEO agencies sell the same playbook to every industry. That playbook breaks for a KKM/MDC-regulated clinic, because most of what makes content "citable" to a generic GEO consultant — outcome claims, before/after proof, comparative superlatives — is exactly what Malaysian clinic advertising rules restrict. We build the compliance framework and the AI-visibility layer as one system, the same discipline we already apply to paid ad creative for aesthetic and dental clinics, interior design firms and other regulated or reputation-sensitive categories.
Most GEO pitches in this market are a positioning slide — "we optimise for AI search" — with no data behind it. We publish our own benchmarks, our own tools, and (on a quarterly cadence) an AI Visibility Report tracking what ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini and Perplexity actually recommend for real commercial queries in Malaysia and Singapore. The site itself is the case study.
Our own AI-visibility results
Results from our monthly prompt battery (full methodology and report) will populate here once the first full quarter of data is collected — we do not publish projected or invented figures.
Several competitors gate a "free AI visibility audit" behind a sales call. Ours is instant and free: the AI Visibility Checker scores your site's AI-crawler access, schema, llms.txt and feed presence in seconds, and the llms.txt Generator builds the single highest-leverage GEO file most sites are missing entirely — both free, no gate on the first result.
GEO is not sold as a separate, standalone retainer — it's the AI-search layer added on top of our existing SEO service: entity and schema architecture, AI-crawler access policy (robots.txt + server-level verification), an llms.txt file kept current, citable primary data on your own site, third-party citation building (directories, community, press), and monthly AI-visibility measurement via the prompt-battery method. Most of what makes a site GEO-ready also makes it a better normal SEO asset — the two are not in tension.
GEO is scoped as a layer on the existing SEO retainer band published in our pricing guide — exact figures confirmed during scoping since GEO work scales with a site's existing maturity (a site with no schema/llms.txt at all needs more setup work than one already SEO-mature).
