How long does AI visibility implementation take?

Schema markup and technical fixes are typically implemented within 1–2 weeks. Improvements in Google AI Overview eligibility typically appear within 30–60 days. ChatGPT citation eligibility through directory profiles and content optimization generally builds over 60–90 days.

Do you work with businesses outside of San Antonio?

Yes. While Raise Rank is based in San Antonio and has deep expertise in the San Antonio market, AEO and GEO optimization services are available for businesses across Texas and remotely nationwide.

What is the difference between SEO and AEO?

Traditional SEO targets rankings in the list of organic results on Google. AEO (Answer Engine Optimization) targets AI-generated responses — the summaries in ChatGPT, Google AI Overviews, and Perplexity that appear before those links. Both are important, but AEO is the largest untapped opportunity for local businesses right now.

What types of businesses does Raise Rank work with?

Raise Rank works with service-based local businesses including law firms, medical and dental practices, contractors, financial advisors, real estate professionals, restaurants, and any other business that depends on local search traffic. YMYL (Your Money or Your Life) businesses like legal and medical practices receive specialized E-E-A-T optimization.

Services That Get You Found in AI Search

Q: What is included in the AI Business Audit?

The AI Business Audit covers 16 categories of AI search visibility scored out of 100, with Critical, Warning, and Passing severity ratings for every finding. Deliverables include a competitor gap analysis against 3 local competitors, revenue impact estimates, a 5-item quick wins list, a 4-phase priority roadmap, and a Loom video walkthrough — all delivered as a Google Doc.

Q: What is Technology Advisory and when do I need it?

Technology Advisory is independent, vendor-neutral guidance when your business is buying software — a new website, CRM, booking system, or internal tool. Raise Rank helps define requirements, compare vendor proposals, review contracts for hidden costs and lock-in clauses, and oversee the build so what was promised is what gets delivered. It is useful any time you are about to sign with a software vendor and want an experienced engineer reviewing the deal on your behalf.

Every package is built around one goal: making AI search engines — ChatGPT, Gemini, Google AI Overviews, Perplexity — recommend your business by name. Start with a free audit and go from there.

Non-Negotiables in
Every Package

These aren't upsells — they're how we work.

Honest Reporting

Every finding in your report is verified against your live site — not AI-scraped guesses. We fact-check schema, phone formats, review counts, and page source before anything is delivered.

Prioritized by Impact

Every finding is ranked Critical, Warning, or Informational — so you know exactly which fixes move the needle and which ones can wait.

Loom Video Walkthrough

You get a recorded walkthrough of every audit finding — not just a PDF to interpret on your own. You'll know exactly what everything means and why it matters.

Actionable Roadmap

A four-phase priority roadmap tells you what to fix in the first 30 days, 60 days, 90 days, and beyond — whether you implement it yourself or with us.

Competitor Gap Analysis

We compare you against 3 local competitors across 13 AI visibility signals — so you can see exactly where your gap is and what closing it would be worth.

No Surprise Scoping

Every engagement is scoped after the discovery call. You'll know exactly what it costs and what you get before you spend a dollar.

AI-Optimized Website Rebuilds

Most local business websites weren't built for AI search — they were built for 2015. A rebuild done right isn't just a new look. It's AI-ready architecture, schema markup on every page, and a site that AI crawlers can actually read from day one.

Schema markup on every page LocalBusiness, Service, FAQPage, BreadcrumbList, and Person schemas built in from the start — not bolted on after the fact.
Fast, mobile-first design Built to score well on Core Web Vitals — the performance signal AI engines and Google both factor into recommendations.
AI crawler access baked in robots.txt, llms.txt, and sitemap.xml configured correctly so GPTBot, PerplexityBot, and Google-Extended can all index your site.
AEO-structured content Every page is written and structured to answer the questions your customers actually ask AI tools — not just stuffed with keywords.
Delivered with a full audit Every rebuild includes a 16-point AI visibility audit of the completed site before launch — so you go live knowing you're already optimized.

Why Rebuild?

Most websites fail the AI visibility audit because of structural issues that can't be fixed with patches — missing schema, non-semantic HTML, slow load times, and unstructured content. Sometimes the fastest path to AI search visibility is starting clean.

Who It's For

Businesses with outdated sites (3+ years old), platforms that don't support schema markup, or sites that consistently score under 30/100 on the AI audit where a rebuild would outperform incremental fixes.

Technology Advisory & Software Selection

Buying a new website, CRM, booking system, or inventory tool? The vendor's sales rep works for the vendor. We work for you — an independent engineer on your side of the table who makes sure you buy the right thing, at the right price, and that it's actually delivered as promised.

Requirements definition Before you talk to a single vendor, we translate what your business actually needs into a clear requirements list — so you're comparing proposals against your needs, not their sales pitch.
Vendor & proposal evaluation We review quotes and proposals side by side, flag hidden costs, lock-in clauses, and missing deliverables, and give you a plain-English recommendation.
Build oversight Once you've signed, we stay on as your technical eyes — reviewing milestones, testing what's delivered, and making sure things like schema markup, SEO basics, and data ownership aren't quietly skipped.
AI visibility built into the requirements Any website or platform we help you buy gets our AEO/GEO checklist written into the vendor's scope — so your new investment is visible to AI search from day one, not retrofitted later.

Why It Matters

Vertical software vendors — the big companies that build websites "for dentists" or "for law firms" — quote the same template at wildly different prices and routinely skip the technical details that determine whether AI engines can even see your business. An hour of independent review before you sign can save thousands.

Who It's For

Local business owners about to invest in a new website, CRM, scheduling platform, or internal tool — who want an experienced engineer reviewing the deal before and during the build, without hiring one full-time.

What is included in the AI Business Audit?

The audit covers all 16 AI visibility categories scored out of 100, with Critical, Warning, and Passing severity ratings for every finding. You also receive a competitor gap analysis (3 local competitors), revenue impact estimates, a 5-item quick wins list, a 4-phase priority roadmap, and a Loom video walkthrough — all delivered as a detailed Google Doc.

How long does implementation actually take?

Schema markup and technical fixes are typically live within 1–2 weeks. Google AI Overview eligibility improvements generally appear within 30–60 days of implementation. Building ChatGPT citation authority through directory presence takes 60–90 days — but the earlier you start, the better.

Do you work with businesses outside San Antonio?

Yes. We're based in San Antonio and know the local market deeply, but AEO and GEO optimization is done remotely and is relevant to any local business anywhere in Texas or nationwide.

What's the difference between SEO and AEO?

Traditional SEO targets rankings in Google's list of 10 organic links. AEO (Answer Engine Optimization) targets the AI-generated summaries that now appear above those links — in ChatGPT, Google AI Overviews, and Perplexity. Both matter, but AEO is where the largest untapped opportunity currently exists for local businesses.

What types of businesses do you work with?

We specialize in service-based local businesses — law firms, medical and dental practices, contractors, financial advisors, real estate professionals, and restaurants. YMYL industries (legal, medical, financial) get additional E-E-A-T trust signal work because AI engines hold them to a higher standard.

What is Technology Advisory and when do I need it?

Technology Advisory is independent guidance when you're buying software — a new website, CRM, booking system, or internal tool. We help you define requirements, compare vendor proposals, review contracts for hidden costs and lock-in, and oversee the build to make sure what was promised is what gets delivered. You need it any time you're about to sign with a software vendor and want an experienced engineer on your side of the table.
