Websites AI can find and quote.
AetherWeb builds every website so ChatGPT, Gemini and Claude can find it, read it and quote it when your customers ask for a recommendation.
Customers now ask AI first.
They ask an assistant who to hire, then act on the answer. A site that can't be read or quoted is left out of it.
Most sites aren't built for it.
Many hide their text behind scripts, block AI crawlers without knowing it, or say nothing specific enough to quote.
We build it in, then measure it.
Every AetherWeb site follows one standard for AI search. On the Pro plan, Visibility Engine checks each week how ChatGPT, Gemini and Claude answer questions about your business.
What every site includes
AetherWeb's standard for AI search, on every website and every plan.
- Open to AI crawlersAetherWeb checks every live site daily to confirm that the crawlers behind ChatGPT, Gemini and Claude can open it. Many sites block them without the owner knowing.
- Text in the page itselfEvery page is delivered as complete HTML. AI crawlers don't run scripts, so text that only appears after a page loads is invisible to them.
- Pages that answer firstEach main page opens by saying what your business does, for whom and where, followed by the facts customers ask for: services, service area, prices and how to start.
- Structured dataSchema.org data on every page states your business name, location, services and common questions in the format search engines read.
- Google and BingWe submit every site to both search engines. ChatGPT's answers draw heavily on Bing's index, so being in Google alone isn't enough.
- One consistent identityYour name, address, phone number and description match your Google Business Profile and listings, so AI assistants treat them as one business.
If you already have a website
Most of our clients do. A redesign keeps what already works.
- We read your current site firstWe note which pages bring search visits and which facts they state.
- Nothing true gets droppedYour services, service areas, credentials and prices carry over to the new site.
- Your links keep workingEvery page that gets visits keeps its address or redirects to its replacement.
- A before and afterWe check your current site against the same standard, so you can see what changed.
Then we measure it
Visibility Engine is part of the Pro plan. ↳How Visibility Engine works
- A weekly answers checkEach week, Visibility Engine asks ChatGPT, Gemini and Claude the questions your customers ask, and records whether your business is named.
- Content for the gapsWhere your business is missing from an answer, Visibility Engine drafts a post on that question for you to approve.
- Results you can seeYour dashboard shows how often AI assistants mention your business, and how that changes over time.
What we don't promise.
No one can guarantee a mention. What other sites say about your business, such as reviews and listings, counts for more than your own site. We build the part a website controls and show you the results.
Questions about AI search.
Short answers to what business owners ask us.
What is AI search optimization (AEO)?
AI search optimization, also called answer engine optimization or AEO, means building a website so AI assistants such as ChatGPT, Gemini and Claude can find it, read it and quote it in their answers. AetherWeb builds it into every website.
How is AEO different from SEO?
AEO builds on SEO. A page still has to be indexed and rank well in Google and Bing. AI search adds three requirements: the text must be in the page's HTML, AI crawlers must be allowed in, and the copy must state facts an assistant can quote.
Can AetherWeb guarantee that ChatGPT will recommend my business?
No, and no one honestly can. What other websites say about your business, such as reviews and directory listings, counts for more than your own site. AetherWeb builds the part a website controls and shows you the results each week.
Is AI search optimization included in my plan?
Yes. AetherWeb's AI search standard is part of every website on both the Core and Pro plans. Visibility Engine, which measures your visibility in ChatGPT, Gemini and Claude each week and drafts content to improve it, is part of Pro.
Can you check why my current site isn't showing up in AI answers?
Yes. Request a free redesign and ask us. AetherWeb checks your current site against the same standard: whether AI crawlers can open it, whether its text is in the page's HTML, and whether its pages state facts an assistant can quote.
