AEO vs SEO

A new source can enter an AI answer before it earns a search ranking.

SEO competes to rank a page. AEO makes original, verifiable evidence available to live answer engines. Aeokit records what actually happens from publication to citation.

Live aeokit evidence

The zero to cited experiment is being prepared.

Aeokit will publish each milestone only when production evidence supports it. No estimated crawl or citation times.

Live production benchmark

CRM answer visibility

Share of successful tracked answers that mention each monitored brand across common CRM buying questions.

Loading live data…
Live results load from AeoKit’s public aggregate API. The denominator is successful tracked answers; failed runs are excluded.

What we asked

Common comparison and buying questions for CRM software. Exact prompts load with the results.

Why the percentages differ

Each percentage is mentions divided by successful answers for that brand. A failed provider run is excluded, so sample sizes can differ. Brands named directly in a comparison prompt may also appear more often than alternatives.

Mention does not mean recommendation

A mention only means the brand appeared in the answer. It does not prove positive sentiment, recommendation rank, accuracy, or a citation. Those are separate AeoKit measurements.

The practical difference

Rank the page, or supply the evidence.

SEO

Builds page and domain signals to compete for a position in a ranked list of search results.

AEO

Makes a specific fact or source discoverable, extractable, and useful inside a generated answer.
