Your Google Business Profile
Your categories, service area, hours, photos, and services. If your profile is thin or wrong, AI has nothing solid to say about you. We fill out every field and keep it active.

What changed
For years, getting found meant ranking on Google. Google still matters most. But a big new group of homeowners and office managers skips the list of links and asks an AI instead.
45%
of US consumers used an AI tool to find a local business in 2026. A year earlier it was 6%.

used ChatGPT for business recommendations in the past year. 23% used Google’s AI Mode.
Source: BrightLocal, 2026Google is doing it too. Its AI Overviews now sit above the regular results on most question-style searches, like "how much does a deep clean cost." One 2025 study of local business searches found them on 92% of question-style searches (Whitespark). The companies those overviews mention get seen first.
How AI decides who to recommend
You can’t pay to be in the answer itself, and AI doesn’t pick at random. It looks for the company with the clearest, most consistent, best-reviewed footprint in your city. It pulls from four places.
Your reviews
AI reads the patterns in what clients say: how many reviews, how recent, and what they mention. "Biweekly clean in Cary, same two cleaners every time" helps you more than "great service." Recurring clients are easy to ask, and we set up a simple way to do it.
Your website
AI needs pages it can read and quote. One clear page per service and per city, with plain answers to the questions homeowners and office managers ask (what is included, how much, how often), plus structured data that spells out who you are and where you work.
Listings across the web
Directories like Yelp, BBB, Angi, Thumbtack, Care.com, and Nextdoor. AI cross-checks your name, address, and phone number. When they don’t match, it trusts you less. We find and fix the mismatches.
The monthly AI check
Most agencies can’t tell you whether ChatGPT knows you exist. We check, every month, and put it in your report.
We ask the AI tools
Every month we ask ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, and Google AI the questions your customers ask, like "best house cleaning service in Raleigh" or "who does commercial cleaning near Cary."
We show you the answers
Your report shows which tools named you, where you landed in the list, and who they named instead. In plain English, with screenshots.
We fix what’s missing
If AI keeps naming a competitor, there’s usually a reason: more reviews, a page you don’t have, or a listing that’s wrong. We find it and close the gap.
"Best house cleaning service in Raleigh?"
| AI tool | Named you? | Spot |
|---|---|---|
| ChatGPT | Yes | #2 |
| Google AI Mode | Yes | #1 |
| Perplexity | Yes | #3 |
| Gemini | Not yet |
This month’s fix: Gemini named two companies with more recent reviews. Ask your biweekly clients in Cary and Apex for a review after this week's clean.
What we won’t promise
Nobody controls what an AI says. Answers change from person to person and week to week. Anyone who guarantees you a spot in ChatGPT is guessing. Here is what we do promise: we do the work that makes you the easiest company in your city to recommend, and we show you what the AI tools say about you every month. No contract, so if it isn’t worth it, you cancel.
AI search questions from cleaning company owners
Straight answers, no buzzwords.
Is AI search different from regular SEO?
Mostly it’s the same foundation: a strong Google Business Profile, good reviews, a clear website, and correct listings. AI tools pull from those same places. What’s new is how answers are written. AI likes short, direct answers it can repeat, and structured data it can read without guessing. We build both into your site from day one.
Does AI search cost extra?
No. It’s part of the flat $1,000 a month, along with your website, hosting, local SEO, Google Business Profile work, call and quote-form tracking, and the monthly report. No add-ons.
Can you guarantee ChatGPT will recommend my company?
No, and nobody honestly can. ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, and Google decide what their AI says, and the answers change from one person to the next. What we can do is make you the easiest company in your city to recommend, and show you every month what the AI tools are actually saying.
What do GEO and AEO mean?
They are new names for this same work. GEO stands for generative engine optimization. AEO stands for answer engine optimization. Both mean getting AI tools to mention your business when someone asks. If an agency charges you extra for it on top of SEO, ask them what they do differently.
How fast does it work?
It depends on the tool. Some AI tools search the web live, so a better Google Business Profile or a new city page can show up in their answers within weeks. Others update more slowly. Reviews and listings build up over months. We track it monthly so you can see the trend.
Do people really trust AI over Google reviews?
Many do, but most still double check. In BrightLocal’s 2026 survey, 88% of people who use AI for recommendations said they verify what it tells them, often by reading the reviews. That’s why reviews matter twice: they shape what AI says, and they close the deal when the homeowner checks before handing over a key.
