AI visibility audit
The audit is where the work starts. The agency asks the major assistants the questions a business's customers ask, then shows who gets named, how the business is described and why. For a business owner this answers the first LLM SEO question directly: what does AI say about us today?

Entity and listing cleanup
AI assistants pull business facts from listings. The cleanup makes the business details match across Google and Bing, Apple Maps and Yelp, and the directories each industry relies on. This is the first of the five AEO signals, consistent listings, put into practice.

Citations and reviews
The fourth service builds the outside evidence. Mentions in the local press and in neighborhood guides give AI a trusted third-party reason to name the business, and a review process encourages customers to describe what the business does best in their own words.

Platforms and websites
The services apply across every major assistant. The agency's FAQ lists them and notes that each draws on different sources, so the work covers the listings and content each one relies on. A new website is usually not needed: the agency works with the existing site and adds what AI needs.

Why the services run in this order
The order follows the work. The audit comes first because it records the starting answers that every later month is compared with. Listing cleanup follows because an assistant has to identify a business before it can describe it. Content gives the assistant the specifics to quote, and citations and reviews supply the outside confirmation that tips a short answer toward one name. The monthly prompt panel then closes the loop by asking the same questions again.
