AEO Rankings
AEO rankings: the brands AI engines actually name when buyers ask.
Answer engine optimisation, measured. We audit thousands of brands across the five major AI answer engines — ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, Gemini and Google AI Overviews — every quarter. These pages rank who's named, who's cited, and who AI engines have decided are the default answers in each category.

How these AEO rankings are produced
For each industry we pick 20 leading brands and run an 8-query answer engine optimisation audit per brand quarterly against Google AI Mode. Brands are ranked by a composite AEO score: 70% visibility (how often the AI names the brand) + 30% citation rate (how often AI links to the brand's domain). Full methodology →
