AI search optimization: get named when customers ask AI.

More people ask ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity and Google's AI Overviews who to call. AI search optimization is the work of making your business easy for those tools to find, understand and recommend. SOSSRANK checks what they say about you and fixes the sources they rely on. AI checks are included from the Growth plan.

Why AI assistants don't mention you

AI assistants build answers from sources they trust: your website, your Google profile, review sites, directories and articles. When those sources are thin or disagree, the assistant names someone else.

What we find most often

Your website doesn't say clearly what you do, where, and for whom
Your services and towns aren't on pages AI can read
Few reviews and mentions on the sites AI assistants cite
Business details that differ across listings
AI crawlers blocked by your website settings

We check what AI actually says

We ask the questions your customers ask, like "best plumber near Germantown", across ChatGPT, Perplexity and Google's AI, and save the exact answer and its sources. You see whether you're named, who is, and why.

People are already using these tools. In BrightLocal's 2026 survey, the share of consumers using AI tools to find local businesses rose from 6% to 45% in a year (BrightLocal Local Consumer Review Survey, 2026).

Make your website easy to quote

Clear pages for each service and area, direct answers to common questions, your business details in structured data, and nothing blocking AI crawlers. These are the same things that help Google, written so a person and a machine can both understand them.

Fix the sources AI relies on

Your Google profile, your reviews, Bing Places, Apple Business Connect and the directories for your industry. AI assistants lean on them heavily, so accurate, active listings make it more likely you're the one they name.

What we won't promise

No one can make an AI recommend a business, and anyone selling a guaranteed AI ranking is selling nothing. What we can do is make sure AI tools can find you, read you and get your facts right, and show you every month what they say.

Questions we hear

What is AI search optimization?

It's the work of making your business easy for AI assistants like ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity and Google's AI Overviews to find, understand and recommend: clear website content, accurate listings, reviews, and nothing blocking their crawlers.

Is AI search optimization different from SEO?

It builds on the same foundations: a strong Google profile, a clear website and good reviews. The difference is that we also check what AI tools say about you and fix the sources they cite.

Do you work with businesses outside Maryland?

Yes. The app works for businesses anywhere in the US, and done-for-you work is done remotely, with everything visible in your dashboard. We're based in Germantown, Maryland.

How fast will I see more calls?

It depends on your market and your competitors, and Google says no one can pay for a better ranking. What you get is proof: you see the change on your map, measured from the same points every time.
