Clear Cited is a full-stack AI search optimization (AEO/GEO) service for DevOps, developer tools, and B2B SaaS companies. It helps brands get recommended and cited across major AI engines including ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude, Gemini, Microsoft Copilot, and Grok. The core problem it solves is that 73% of B2B buyers use AI tools for purchase research, and if your brand isn't cited in AI answers, you're invisible to that growing channel.

What Makes Clear Cited Stand Out

Full-stack approach: Combines SEO foundation, AI-answer optimization, done-for-you content, and off-site authority into one productized service.
Rigorous measurement: Each buyer prompt is run 10+ times per engine, reported as median share-of-model with 95% confidence intervals — not single screenshots or anecdotal data.
Engine-specific optimization: Different engines give different answers, so Clear Cited optimizes per engine rather than applying one-size-fits-all tactics.
Done-for-you execution: Content, social posts, directory listings, and digital PR are produced and published on your behalf, you-approved before going live.
Affordable pricing: Starts with a free teardown, then audits from $500, and done-for-you retainers from $1,500/mo — far less than enterprise agencies.

Who Should Use Clear Cited

DevOps and developer-tool companies that need to be recommended when engineers ask AI which CI/CD platform, observability tool, or database to use.
B2B SaaS startups at seed to Series A without an in-house SEO specialist but needing to capture AI-driven pipeline.
US companies looking for frictionless cross-border engagement with W-8BEN, USD billing, and async workflows.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Answer Engine Optimization (AEO)?

AEO, also called AI SEO or GEO, is the practice of getting your brand recommended and cited inside AI-generated answers from engines like ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Claude. It focuses on entity clarity, structured data, and third-party citations rather than traditional search rankings.

How does Clear Cited measure AI visibility?

Clear Cited runs each buyer prompt 10+ times per engine (ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude, Gemini, Grok) and reports the median share-of-model with a 95% confidence interval. This ensures reproducibility and accounts for the variability of AI outputs.

Does Clear Cited guarantee citations?

No provider can guarantee citations because AI engines change constantly. Clear Cited guarantees rigorous measurement and evidence-based work, and ties retainer engagements to measurable share-of-model targets.
