What is Generative Engine Optimization?

Generative Engine Optimization (GEO) is the practice of optimizing content for AI-powered search engines and generative AI platforms. The term was first coined in the Andreessen Horowitz research paper describing the shift from traditional search to AI-generated responses.

Case study: FinTech-docs.com saw 12% more GPT citations after our GEO audit, demonstrating measurable impact on AI discoverability.
