AI Visibility — SEO • AEO • GEO

Being found by people and AI — a unified visibility layer

AI Visibility is the discipline of being surfaced not only in traditional search results, but inside AI assistants, answer engines and generative search experiences. Lytheron treats SEO, AEO and GEO as one connected layer across the ecosystem.

Definition

What AI Visibility means

Users no longer only type queries into a search box. They ask ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity and AI overviews inside Google. Being cited, quoted and linked inside those answers is now a distinct visibility discipline.

AI Visibility unifies three complementary layers: classic SEO (rank on the results page), AEO (be the answer picked by answer engines), and GEO (be cited inside generative AI outputs).

Start with a qualified assessment

AI Visibility Assessment

A structured first engagement for organisations that need to understand how clearly their website can be discovered, interpreted and cited by search engines and AI systems before deciding on implementation.

Assessment delivered in 5–7 working days after scope confirmation

The first contact is used to verify fit and define the scope. A personalised proposal is prepared only after the preliminary assessment of website size, languages and objectives.

What you receive
  • Entity and positioning assessment
  • Technical SEO, canonical, sitemap and hreflang checks
  • AEO and GEO content-structure assessment
  • Structured-data and trust-signal assessment
  • Prioritised roadmap with immediate, medium-term and optional actions
  • One final review call or written implementation briefing
How the assessment works
  • Preliminary fit check and website review
  • Scope confirmation based on pages, languages and business objective
  • Written assessment and prioritised roadmap
  • Decision on implementation, internal handover or no further engagement
Proprietary method

Lytheron AI Visibility Framework

The Assessment follows one repeatable framework so findings are comparable, prioritised and connected to business decisions rather than presented as a generic SEO checklist.

01

Entity

Identity, positioning, ownership, services, markets and the consistency of factual signals across the site.

02

Architecture

Indexation, canonical logic, sitemap, hreflang, routing, internal relationships and technical accessibility.

03

Answerability

Definitions, question coverage, page structure and the ability to provide clear answers for search and AI systems.

04

Authority

Authorship, company information, citations, structured data, transparency and trust signals.

05

Action

Conversion paths, commercial clarity, measurement priorities and a practical implementation roadmap.

Deliverable

Assessment output

The deliverable is a decision document, not a list of disconnected errors.

Executive summary

Current position, principal risks and the few actions with the highest likely impact.

Evidence register

Finding, affected URL or system, supporting evidence and business relevance.

Priority matrix

Critical, high, medium and optional actions ranked by impact, effort and dependency.

30/60/90 roadmap

A sequenced plan that can be implemented by Lytheron, an internal team or another supplier.

Example of how findings are written

Finding: Entity information is inconsistent between the homepage, legal page and structured data.

Evidence: organisation name and service description differ across key pages and schema markup.

Priority action: define one canonical company description, align Organization schema and update high-authority pages first.

Expected business effect: clearer interpretation by search systems, AI assistants and procurement teams.

  • You want guaranteed rankings or guaranteed AI citations
  • You are looking only for paid backlinks or mass-generated content
  • You expect immediate traffic without technical or editorial changes
  • You need a cheap one-day audit with no implementation context
Operating principles
No ranking or citation guarantees
No hidden content, cloaking or artificial authority claims
No automated content published without editorial responsibility
Evidence, prioritisation and measurable decisions over marketing promises
