Answer engine optimization, so the AI names you.

Get named when someone asks ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude or Google about your category.

In short

PostScarcity AI does answer engine optimization for owner-run businesses: answer pages built from real customer questions, schema, llms.txt, a consistent business profile across the web and steady publishing, so ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude and Google AI Overviews name the business when someone asks.

What changed

Your customers ask an assistant now.

They used to type three words into Google and scroll. Now they ask ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude or Google a full question and read the answer. The answer names two or three businesses. Everyone else is invisible.

Answer engine optimization is the work of being one of the names. Assistants quote pages that answer the question plainly, that they can read cleanly, and that the rest of the web agrees with.

What we do

Six jobs, every month.

We do the work. Your agent keeps it current.

  • Answer pages built from the questions your customers actually ask: on calls, in email, in reviews.
  • Schema on every page: FAQ, Article, Organization and LocalBusiness, so an assistant reads who you are without guessing.
  • An llms.txt file that tells AI crawlers what the business does and which pages to trust.
  • One consistent business profile across the web: the same name, address, services and description on Google, directories and your own site.
  • Pages worth citing, published on a schedule, from your drafts and your expertise.
  • A monthly check of which assistants name you, for which questions, and what moved.

Where it goes next

The way in. Then the marketing department.

AEO is sold on its own. It is a clear first job with a clear monthly report, and it is often where an owner first sees what an agent can do.

When you want the whole publishing operation (the articles, the newsletter, the weekly posts and video), it grows into the marketing department your agent runs. The answer pages and the schema carry over.

From the work

A publishing engine built to be quoted.

AMC Defense Law publishes an article a day from the attorney's own drafts, through Justice Watch. Every post ships with schema, a clean answer up top and a validator that checks the layout before it goes live. The firm's first web leads came from search.

FAQ

The questions owners ask.

It is the work of getting your business named in the answers from ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude and Google AI Overviews. Clear answer pages, schema, a consistent profile across the web and steady publishing.
SEO aims for a ranked link. AEO aims for a mention inside the answer. The groundwork overlaps, but assistants reward pages that answer one question plainly and that the rest of the web agrees with.
Every month we ask the assistants the questions your customers ask and record which ones name you. The report shows what moved and why.
