Top 10 AI SEO and GEO agencies in 2026

This list is for marketing leads, founders and in-house SEO teams who want their brand named and cited when buyers ask ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini or Google AI Overviews for a recommendation. Every agency below publicly sells generative engine optimization (GEO), answer engine optimization (AEO) or AI search visibility work, and each one has a live service page we read in October 2026.

Use it as a shortlist, not a verdict. Read the "Best for" line first, check whether the agency publishes pricing or a budget range, then open its GEO page and compare the deliverables to what you actually need. Some firms here are full-service SEO agencies with a GEO line; others are built around AI search from the ground up.

Quick note before the list: this is our list, so yes, GrowwithBA sits at #1. We say why below, and you can weigh that yourself. The other nine are firms we would happily point a brand to, and nobody paid to be here.

How we chose

• A live GEO, AEO or AI search service page. Blog posts about GEO were not enough. Each agency had to sell the service on its own site.
• Named deliverables. We looked for concrete work such as prompt research, citation tracking, schema, digital PR and content updates, not just promises of "AI visibility".
• Proof on the page. Published case studies, client logos or results got credit. We only repeat figures the agency states itself.
• Pricing transparency. Published prices or budget ranges counted in an agency's favour, because most buyers need to know if they are in range before a sales call.
• Measurement. We favoured agencies that explain how they track AI visibility, such as share of voice, citation counts or AI referral traffic.
• A mix of profiles. We included large full-service firms, enterprise specialists and a smaller B2B SaaS boutique so different budgets are covered.

Quick comparison

The list

#1. GrowwithBA

GrowwithBA is the agency brand of Bridging Associates, with offices in Nagpur, India and Dover, Delaware, USA. Engagements are senior-led and start with a free growth audit, and the team ends engagements that are not moving revenue.

Best for: ecommerce and service brands that want AI search visibility built on top of working SEO.

What stands out:

• Dedicated GEO and AEO and AI SEO services.
• Publishes its own research, including a fully sourced AI search statistics page.
• Free GEO readiness score and AI citation tools to check where you stand first.
• SEO from $1,500 a month, published on the site.

Worth knowing: AI citation tracking is still an immature field for every agency on this list; ask any provider how they measure it.

#2. First Page Sage

First Page Sage is a long-running SEO and thought leadership agency that says it launched its GEO service on May 9, 2023, describing it as the first GEO service offering. It also runs a separate AEO services page.

Best for: B2B, SaaS, fintech and healthcare brands that want to appear on the lists, databases and review sites AI tools draw from.

What stands out:

• The GEO service is broken into six parts: list creation and optimization, database inclusion, website authority, online review management, achievement publicization and social sentiment monitoring.
• It names ChatGPT, Google Gemini, Perplexity, Claude and SearchGPT as target platforms.
• The site shows client logos including Logitech, Salesforce and U.S. Bancorp, and the company states over 15 years of experience.

Worth knowing: Pricing is not published on the GEO page, and the page shows logos rather than GEO-specific results.

#3. iPullRank

iPullRank is an enterprise SEO, content and AI search agency founded by Michael King. It packages its AI search work as "Relevance Engineering" and has published an AI Search Manual on the topic.

Best for: Large brands with complex sites that need technical AI search work, testing and executive-level reporting.

What stands out:

• The Relevance Engineering service lists a technical audit, a review of visibility in AI search, competitor visibility analysis in AI models, a strategic roadmap and a measurement plan.
• Its AI search paths page publishes three tiers: Emerging ($30K to $150K), Growth ($150K to $500K) and Elite ($500K+).
• The company says it has delivered more than $5B in organic search results for clients.

Worth knowing: The published budget ranges put it out of reach for most small businesses. It is built for mid-market and enterprise teams.

#4. Siege Media

Siege Media is a content marketing and SEO agency whose founder and CEO, Ross Hudgens, wrote the book Generative Engine Optimization, published by Wiley. Its GEO program runs end to end, from research to content and digital PR.

Best for: SaaS, fintech, ecommerce, cybersecurity, education and travel brands willing to commit for six months or more.

What stands out:

• A phased plan: prompt-level citation mapping and an LLM share-of-voice baseline in months one and two, then data journalism, bottom-of-funnel content, digital PR and Reddit presence, then monthly reporting on citations, share of voice and revenue.
• Published GEO results include 250,000 ChatGPT visits for Mentimeter and nearly 4x LLM visibility for Grow Therapy.
• Client logos on the page include Zapier, Asana and Zendesk.

Worth knowing: The page itself asks for a 6+ month horizon, and pricing is not published. The team is 100% remote, with mailing addresses in Austin, Chicago, New York and San Francisco.

#5. NoGood

NoGood is a New York growth marketing agency, headquartered in Soho, that sells AEO alongside SEO, paid search, paid social and CRO. It also has offices in Miami and Dubai.

Best for: Tech, AI, fintech and consumer brands that want AEO run by the same team handling paid and social growth.

What stands out:

• Its published case study says SteelSeries saw a 23x increase in AI search traffic and 27x growth in conversions from AI platforms year over year.

#6. WebFX

WebFX is a large full-service digital marketing agency based in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, operating since 1995. Its AI search optimization service is paired with OmniSEO, its own platform for tracking AI search visibility.

Best for: Small and mid-sized businesses that want clear monthly plans and a tracking dashboard included.

What stands out:

• Fully published pricing: plans start at $3,000 per month and run to $68,250 per month, on a six-month commitment, with a bespoke tier by quote.
• Each tier spells out prompt targeting volume, AI prompt monitoring and the number of content assets per month.
• The page reports 12,335 leads driven for clients from AI sources and a 586% increase in traffic from generative AI sources for client Thompson Tractor.

Worth knowing: Plans require a six-month commitment. As a large agency, expect a more packaged, process-driven service than a boutique offers.

#7. Directive

Directive is a B2B marketing agency headquartered in Orange County, California, with offices in Austin, New York, Mexico City, London and Toronto. Its GEO page is written specifically for B2B buyers.

Best for: B2B technology and services companies that want AI visibility measured against demos and pipeline.

• Its Case Status case study reports a move from zero LLM presence to a dominant position across 39+ tracked prompts within nine months, with demo bookings 20% over forecast.

Worth knowing: It is B2B only by positioning, so consumer brands should look elsewhere. Pricing is not published.

#8. Go Fish Digital

Best for: Enterprise and ecommerce sites focused on Google AI Overviews, AI Mode and ChatGPT.

What stands out:

• Four service parts: semantic content audits, page and passage level optimization for AI Overviews and ChatGPT, technical SEO for AI discovery, and digital PR for brand citations.
• A proprietary toolkit that includes an AI Overview Analyzer, a Similarity Score extension and Barracuda, its page-level analysis platform.
• Client logos shown on the GEO page include Lowe's, LegalZoom and K-Swiss.

Worth knowing: Pricing is by custom proposal only, and the GEO page does not publish GEO-specific case results.

#9. Power Digital

Best for: DTC, ecommerce, health and wellness, and multi-channel brands that want GEO coordinated with their other marketing.

• Targets ChatGPT, Google AI Overviews, Perplexity, Claude, Gemini and Microsoft Copilot.
• Lists a wide set of industries, from SaaS and finance to real estate and higher education.

Worth knowing: The GEO page publishes no pricing and no GEO-specific case results, so ask for examples during the sales process.

#10. Minuttia

Minuttia is a content, SEO and GEO agency focused on B2B SaaS. Its legal entity is Minuttia Marketing OÜ, registered in Estonia, and its Clutch profile lists a 2020 founding year.

Best for: B2B SaaS companies that want a specialist boutique rather than a large full-service agency.

What stands out:

• Services are grouped into understand (Google and AI search strategy), create (human and AI content), amplify (digital PR, Reddit marketing, paid media) and improve (agent analytics and reporting).
• Client logos on the site include Docebo, Sitecore and ServiceTitan, and it publishes a case study on AI search for Meilisearch.
• The agency states a 93% average client retention rate and 50+ B2B SaaS clients.

Worth knowing: It is SaaS-focused, so it is a weak fit for local or consumer brands. Clutch lists a $5,000+ minimum project size.

How to choose

Before you sign, put these questions to every agency on your shortlist:

1. Which prompts will you track, and who picks them? A good GEO program starts with a prompt set built from real buyer questions, not vanity terms.
2. How do you measure AI visibility? Ask for a sample report showing citations, share of voice and AI referral traffic, and how often it updates.
3. What is on-site and what is off-site? AI tools cite third-party lists, reviews, Reddit threads and press. Ask how much of the budget goes to digital PR and mentions versus content and schema.
4. Can you show a GEO case study in my industry? Generic SEO wins are not the same thing. Ask for a before and after on AI citations.
5. What does it cost, and what is the minimum term? Several agencies here ask for six months. Know that before the first call.
6. Who does the work? Ask whether senior strategists stay on the account or hand off after the pitch.

FAQ

What is the difference between GEO, AEO and AI SEO?

They describe the same goal with different labels. GEO (generative engine optimization) and AEO (answer engine optimization) both mean getting your brand cited or recommended inside AI answers from tools like ChatGPT, Perplexity and Google AI Overviews. "AI SEO" is a broader term that agencies use for the same work. Our GEO and AEO service page explains how we approach it.

How much does a GEO agency cost?

Published prices vary widely. On the pages we checked, WebFX starts at $3,000 per month on a six-month commitment, while iPullRank publishes engagement ranges from $30K up to $500K+. Most other agencies on this list only quote after a call.

How long does GEO take to show results?

Agencies that publish timelines plan for months, not weeks. Siege Media, for example, lays out a foundation phase in months one and two and asks for a horizon of six months or more. Off-site work like PR and reviews takes time to be picked up by AI tools.

Do I still need traditional SEO if I invest in GEO?

Yes. Every agency here ties GEO to technical SEO, content and authority building, because AI tools often draw on pages that already rank and are well linked. Treat GEO as an extension of SEO, not a replacement. See our AI SEO and AEO service for how the two fit together.

Method note: We checked each agency's own website, GEO or AEO service page and, where cited, one third-party profile in October 2026. Prices, offices and results can change, so confirm details with the agency before you buy. Spotted an error? Email partner@growwithba.com.
