How AI decides which businesses to recommend, explained simply.

More and more people ask AI assistants and Google which business to choose. The answer usually names just a few companies. If yours isn't one of them, those customers go to someone else. CitedGEO asks AI the questions your customers ask and shows you what comes back: who gets recommended instead of you, and why. Then we fix what keeps you out of the answer: your website, your listings and how other sites describe you. You see in plain numbers whether it changed. We can't promise what an AI will say. We show you whether it names you. See what AI says about your business, free: https://citedgeo.com/free-audit/
