What we offer
As a generative engine optimization agency, Cited Co manages every aspect of making your business visible when someone asks ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, or Claude for a recommendation in your category.
One monthly retainer. No project billing. No surprise invoices.
Entity Optimization
We build out your business’s structured identity across the web so AI tools can understand and reference it accurately.
If machines cannot read your credentials, you will not be cited even if you are the best in your market.
What we do
What we do
AI-Cited Content
Monthly blog content written specifically to be referenced by AI tools as authoritative answers to questions your clients are asking.
We write this content. We do not outsource it. Every post goes through a quality review before it reaches you.
What we do
Schema Implementation
The technical layer that makes everything else work. Schema markup is how we tell AI tools exactly who your business is, what you do, where you do it, and why you are credible.
Most service businesses have no schema markup at all. The ones that do often have it wrong or incomplete. We implement it correctly and keep it current as your business earns new credentials.
Monthly Visibility Tracking
A scored monthly report of your AI visibility across ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, and Gemini.
You cannot improve what you do not measure. We give you a score and we move it.

Onboarding and Foundation Build
The first-month setup work that makes everything else possible. Included in every retainer at no additional fee.
Month one is all setup. Month two is when you start seeing movement.
Why not the alternatives
Cited Co versus every other option.
There are three common alternatives to working with Cited Co. Here is an honest account of each.
DIY tracking
Possible, but rarely sustained. Running eight to ten targeted queries across four AI platforms every month, scoring responses, and knowing what the data means requires time and context most service business owners do not have. Businesses that try it manually almost always do it once, record nothing, and stop. Without consistency, the data is useless.
Standard SEO tools
Semrush, Ahrefs, and similar platforms track Google rankings and backlink profiles. They do not measure whether your business is named in ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, or Claude responses. Standard SEO tools track Google rankings and backlink profiles. They do not measure whether your business is named in ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, or Claude responses. Keep using SEO tools for what they do well, but do not mistake Google rank data for AI citation data.
Large marketing agencies
Most large agencies have added GEO or AI SEO to their service menus in the past year. What large agencies rarely offer is a dedicated multi-platform tracking system and a strategist who knows your specific market. The specific focus on AI citation, entity optimization, and multi-platform scoring is not what large agencies were built to do. Volume-based account management also means less continuity and less specific knowledge of your market and competitive position.
Cited Co
Built from a documented result, not a theory. Month-over-month scoring across ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, and Gemini.

Our credentials
Our credentials are our results.
Cited Co was built on a documented result, not a theory. Before we offered this as a service, we ran it on Living with Lolo, an Arizona-licensed design-build firm with a verified track record in a competitive local market. Within 60 days, AI tools went from rarely mentioning the business to citing it with specific accurate details: contractor license ROC #347577, three Phoenix Magazine Best Interior Design awards, and the Scottsdale and Paradise Valley service area. That is the standard we hold ourselves to for every client.
Investment
One flat monthly retainer.
We do not bill by the hour. We quote after the initial audit so the number reflects exactly what your business needs.
