Am I mentioned by AI?

When a buyer asks an assistant for a shortlist, somebody gets named and somebody does not. This hub is about what actually moves that — measured where we can, labeled as folklore where we cannot.

The vocabulary, sorted.

AI SEO
The umbrella habit: optimising to be found and cited by AI systems, the way SEO once meant being found by Google.
GEO — generative engine optimisation
Getting named inside generated answers. Different mechanics from ranking: assistants cite sources they can parse, verify and quote safely.
AEO — answer engine optimisation
The subset aimed at question-shaped queries: being the answer, with the source attached, rather than one of ten blue links.
AI slop
The counterforce: machine-generated filler published at volume. It is why assistants increasingly weight provenance — and why having your definitions written down matters.
