AI Search / GEO Optimization (February 2026)

When to Use

• Use when improving visibility in AI Overviews, ChatGPT, Perplexity, or similar AI search systems.

• Use when the user asks about GEO, AI SEO, LLM visibility, or AI citations.

Evidence boundaries

Use a dated query/platform sample and actual citation/referral evidence. No market-share, correlation, passage-length or uplift figures are established by this file; correlations do not prove an optimization causes citations. Scores below are a disclosed qualitative rubric, not a provider ranking metric.

GEO Analysis Criteria (Updated)

1. Citability Score (25%)
