Our Story

Built for the AI-First Web

CiteForge was founded on a simple observation: SEO optimised brands for Google’s algorithm. GEO, AEO, and AISEO optimise brands for AI’s judgement — for citation, for schema, for authority. Most brands are invisible to AI — and don’t know it.

We built the methodology, the tools, and the citation intelligence to change that.

Every brand deserves to be the answer AI gives. We built CiteForge to make that engineering accessible, measurable, and repeatable.

What We Stand For

Our Principles

01

Evidence Over Opinion

Every recommendation is backed by data. AI citation patterns — across GEO, AEO, and AISEO — are measurable. We measure everything.

02

Systems Thinking

One-off fixes don’t build AI visibility. We build operating systems — structured, schema-driven, citation-engineered — that compound over time.

03

Transparency

No black boxes. You see exactly how your AI Visibility Index score is built, what signals drive it, and what moves it across every surface.

04

Category Leadership

We’re defining the standards for AI visibility — GEO, AEO, citation intelligence — and publishing what we learn so the industry rises with us.
