What it does
- Presence measurement across the 4 major AI engines: Google AI Overview, Perplexity, ChatGPT, Gemini.

- Schema markup recommendations (Article, FAQ, HowTo, Product) tailored to answer engines.
- Content gap detection: frequent questions in your sector with no positioned content of yours.
- Prioritised AEO/GEO strategy with concrete actions to enter AI answers within 60-90 days.
How to use it
- 1
Validio probes the AI engines

Executable AEO/GEO plan
You receive the plan: which topics to target, which schema to add, which E-E-A-T signals to reinforce and what new content to create to land in next-quarter AI answers.
Real use cases
B2B brand losing SEO traffic
A B2B SaaS notices organic traffic dropping even though rankings hold. The reason: users get the answer in AI Overviews without clicking. Validio measures AEO presence and prioritises where to appear.
FAQ-heavy sector (legal, health, finance)
A law firm finds ChatGPT recommending other firms when users ask about their specialty. Validio identifies the exact queries and the E-E-A-T strategy to break in.
E-commerce that wants AIs to cite it
A specialty e-commerce wants Perplexity to cite it in comparative answers. Validio audits product schema, domain authority and proposes specific gap content.
Frequently asked questions
- Which AI engines does Validio cover?
- Covers the 4 with the largest share in Europe: Google AI Overview, Perplexity, ChatGPT and Gemini. Coverage updates as the ecosystem evolves (Anthropic Search, etc. get added once share stabilises).
- AEO or GEO? What's the difference?
- AEO (Answer Engine Optimization) optimises for engines that answer users directly. GEO (Generative Engine Optimization) is the newer term and covers the same ground. Validio treats them as synonyms.
- How long until I appear in AI answers after applying the plan?
- Depends on the engine and sector competitiveness. AI Overviews refreshes faster (weeks). ChatGPT and Perplexity take longer (1-3 months) since they depend on their crawl and embeddings.
- Does Validio guarantee I'll appear in ChatGPT?
- No. Nobody can guarantee inclusion in answer engines — the criteria are opaque and shifting. Validio guarantees a plan grounded in signals that do depend on you (E-E-A-T, schema, content).
