MaxAEO
See how ChatGPT, Perplexity and Gemini describe your brand
About MaxAEO
MaxAEO measures something that has become commercially significant and remains almost entirely unmeasured: what AI answer engines say about your brand. When a buyer asks ChatGPT which tool to use, or a shopper asks Perplexity what to buy, an answer is produced, a shortlist is given, and your brand is either on it, absent from it, or on it and described badly. None of that appears in Google Analytics or any conventional rank tracker, because no search result page was involved. MaxAEO monitors it across four engines and then works on changing it.
The product splits into monitoring and optimisation, which is the right structure, since knowing you are absent from AI answers is useless without a way to act. Monitoring tracks how ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini and DeepSeek describe your brand, across a defined set of search prompts, with competitor comparison built in. Optimisation addresses mentions, citations and framing, the three levers that actually move a brand up in a generated answer. Plans are metered by brands, tracked prompts, platforms and competitors, with four of eight platforms available at entry tier and data retention increasing with plan. Industry playbooks exist for ecommerce and SaaS, and a full sample report on a real brand is published so you can see the output before buying.
Define the brand you are tracking and the set of search prompts a buyer would plausibly type, since visibility is prompt-specific rather than general. MaxAEO runs those prompts against the AI engines and records how your brand is described, whether it is mentioned at all, what is cited as the source, and how competitors are positioned relative to you. From that baseline the optimisation side identifies what to change: which citations are missing, where framing is working against you, and which mentions can be improved. Data retention runs from thirty days at entry tier to ninety days on Growth, so trends over time become visible as the plan scales.
- •Four Engine Monitoring - Tracks ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini and DeepSeek, with eight platforms available across the plan range
- •Prompt-Level Tracking - Visibility measured against specific buyer prompts rather than as a single abstract score
- •Competitor Comparison - See how rivals are positioned in the same answers, which is the context that makes your own result meaningful
- •Citation and Framing Work - Optimisation targeting the three real levers: whether you are mentioned, what is cited, and how you are framed
- •Industry Playbooks - Specific guidance for ecommerce and SaaS, where the buying questions differ substantially
- •Published Sample Report - A full report on a real brand available before purchase, so the output is knowable in advance
- •Data Retention Tiers - 30 days at Starter rising to 90 days on Growth for trend analysis
- •Self-Serve Entry Point - Starter is self-serve rather than demo-gated
For marketing teams at SaaS and ecommerce companies who suspect AI answer engines are shaping purchase decisions and have no visibility into what those engines say. It suits brands that rank well conventionally but are losing traffic, where AEO is the likely explanation. Agencies adding answer engine optimisation to their offering get per-brand tracking. Anyone who has typed their own category into ChatGPT, seen a shortlist of competitors and not found themselves on it has already encountered the problem this measures.
