I help businesses get discovered, cited, and recommended by AI engines (ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, Claude, Grok). And I know how because I work as an AI Domain Trainer for one of the world's leading frontier AI laboratories. My job is to evaluate, refine, and stress-test how models handle expert-level knowledge: where they retrieve information from, which sources they trust, and why they cite one business and ignore another. In daily practice that means running side-by-side evaluations of model responses, hunting hallucinations and flawed inferences, and verifying how well answers stay grounded in real source data. Much of this work is on multi-turn conversations in Turkish, where I test how models weave contextual data into answers that sound natural instead of robotic. Watching that process from the inside changed how I see the internet. The world is no longer searching on Google alone. It is asking AI. And most businesses are invisible in those answers. That is the problem I solve. I specialize in GEO (Generative Engine Optimization) and Search RAG architectures, and I developed AIVI, a five-layer framework for measuring and building AI visibility: technical accessibility, information quality, machine readability, semantic trust, citation authority. Not guesswork, real engine testing. I did not arrive here through marketing. I came from the field. For 18 years I held senior engineering and leadership roles on mega-projects for global companies (GE, Amazon, international energy and construction groups) across Turkey, the Gulf, Asia and Europe. Complex operations, hard accountability, systems that had to work in reality, not in slides. I bring that same engineering discipline to GEO: measurable, testable, no invented numbers. I also build with AI daily (Next.js, Supabase, RAG pipelines), so the recommendations I give are things I have implemented myself. What I share here: how AI engines actually select and cite sources, real GEO case work, and lessons from inside the AI labs. DM open for GEO audits, advisory, and collaborations.
