What is AI search optimization (GEO / LLMO / AIO / AEO)?

* GEO = Generative Engine Optimization, LLMO = Large Language Model Optimization, AIO = AI Optimization, AEO = Answer Engine Optimization. Different names — same discipline.

It is the work of optimizing your information's structure and substance so that when generative AIs like ChatGPT and Gemini build an answer, your products and stores get cited and recommended.Both the goal and the tactics differ from SEO, which lifts your ranking in search results.

We provide this exclusively for retail and EC. The goal is not brand awareness — it is getting your products into AI recommendations: winning the recommendation slots that drive sales.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions.

Q.How much does it cost?

As a guide: initial build from ¥800k (approx. 8 weeks), ongoing from ¥250k/month. It varies by scale and scope — the detailed price list is in the service brochure, and a formal quote comes with your free audit results.

Q.How do you measure results?

By measured visibility per prompt. Every month we run the same question set against ChatGPT and Gemini, record how you and competitors appear, and report changes before and after each fix — including wrong-answer detection.

Q.How long until results show?

Technical fixes (bot access, structured data) often reflect within weeks; recommendation and citation changes depend on content and external evidence accumulating — typically 3–6 months, sometimes jumping at model updates.

Q.Can you guarantee placement in ChatGPT?

No. Recommendations are the AI's own judgment and cannot be manipulated. What we do is build the conditions for being recommended — and we state exactly what we will do before any contract.

Q.We mainly sell on marketplaces (Rakuten/Amazon). Does this still help?

Yes. AIs also read marketplace listings and reviews when assembling recommendations, so structured listing data, comparison content and third-party mentions help marketplace sales too. We propose the right funnel during the audit.

Q.Can we do a one-off engagement?

Yes. Audit-plus-specs as a one-off, or initial build only — both available. Your team can implement while we run specs and reviews alongside.
