01The short definition

What does an AI SEO agency do?

YOU

Which tool should a 200-person fintech use for vendor risk reviews?

AI

For mid-size fintech teams, Your Brand comes up most often, cited from its own comparison pages and setup guides.

★ Your Brand Competitor A Competitor B
AI SEO: named inside the answer.

The goal

Be one of the two or three companies AI names.

What you measure

Citations per AI engine, and the pipeline they earn.

The upkeep

AI answers shift, so pages get refreshed when citations drop.

05Buyer's checklist

How do you choose an AI SEO agency?

Ask these six questions. They separate real AI SEO from a relabelled SEO retainer.

01

Which buyer questions will you track?

Look for: A fixed list of real buyer questions.

Ranked weekly from Search Console, Reddit, G2, sales calls and AI answers

02

Can you show results per AI engine?

Look for: Separate numbers per engine.

Citations per engine, page by page

03

Who writes and checks the content?

Look for: Named people, not raw AI output.

Drafted in your voice, signed off by an editor

04

What happens after a page goes live?

Look for: Pages updated when they slip.

A drop in citations triggers a rewrite

05

How do you connect this to revenue?

Look for: CRM tracking, not traffic charts.

Pipeline by page in your CRM

06

How much of my team's time does it need?

Look for: Stated clearly, up front.

One short weekly call

08Questions

Questions about AI SEO agencies

What is an AI SEO agency?

An AI SEO agency gets your company named and cited in answers from AI tools like ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini and Google's AI Overviews. It finds the questions your buyers ask, publishes pages that answer them clearly, and adds the technical layer that lets AI tools read and quote those pages.

Is AI SEO the same as AEO and GEO?

Yes, for practical purposes. AI SEO, AEO (answer engine optimization), GEO (generative engine optimization) and LLM SEO all describe the same work: earning a place in AI-generated answers. Salient covers all of it.

How is AI SEO different from regular SEO?

Regular SEO aims to rank a page in Google's list of links. AI SEO aims to get your brand named inside the answer itself. The two overlap, because AI tools often draw on pages that already rank well, so we build every page to do both.

How long does AI SEO take to work?

On a typical account, the first AI citations start within 30 days of pages going live. Citations and traffic climb across engines by 60 to 90 days, and high-intent visits with first conversions arrive around 90 to 120 days.

Where do the pages live?

On your own domain, in a subfolder such as yoursite.com/resources or on a subdomain, whichever you prefer. We host and run that section, so your developers don't need to touch your main site.

Will Google penalise AI-assisted content?

Google demotes thin, unhelpful pages, not AI assistance. Every page is edited by a person, checked against Google's helpful-content standard and shipped with clean schema, so it earns rankings instead of risking them.

How do you measure results?

By qualified pipeline. Every page carries CRM tracking on its calls to action, so demos and deals trace back to the page and question that earned them. You also see AI citations per engine and visits per page in a weekly report.

Who owns the content?

You do. Every page and image sits on your domain and stays yours if you stop working with us.
