AI changed how buyers compare products, your content needs to reflect this new reality
The old SEO playbook is obsolete. Buyers don’t browse ten links or book discovery calls. They ask ChatGPT or Perplexity and get a complete, comparison-driven answer built for decision-making.
If you’re not part of that answer, you’re out of the deal.
This cohort is a focused sprint to help you win visibility inside AI search by building comparison content optimized for Deep Research. You’ll learn how to audit your presence across LLMs, identify content gaps, and create pages that LLMs cite and buyers trust. It’s not theory. It’s practical workflows, tools, and templates for the way buying happens now.
Part 01: How to optimize for AI search engines
AI answer engines are changing how buyers search, compare, and choose. Structure your content so AI can understand it, cite it, and send higher-intent visitors your way.
- The AI search landscape
- Assess your current AEO position
- The AI search user journey and traffic
- Measure AI influence and AEO
- AEO and your brand
- Content structure for AI synthesis
- Your brand optimization playbook
Part 02: How to create AI search-ready content
AI search-ready content does more than answer questions. It shapes how AI represents your brand, cites your pages, compares your offer, and keeps you visible across the full buyer conversation.
- Optimize for AI refinements
- Create LLM-focused comparison pages
- Make it to the AI journey finish line
- Build a Subject Matter Expert (SME) GPT brain
- Create an explicit AI info page
- A framework to align your truth
- Q&A
