Be the source AI search engines actually cite.
Fleet directors, technical managers and procurement leads now use Copilot and ChatGPT alongside Google. We make sure your business appears when they ask 'who should I shortlist for…'.
AI search has changed top-of-funnel discovery. A maritime buyer who used to type "ship management Singapore tanker" into Google now asks ChatGPT "I'm a Greek owner with eight VLCCs, who are the best ship managers for technical and crew management in Asia?", and gets back a curated shortlist of three to five providers.
If your business isn't on that list, you don't get to bid. AI SEO (or GEO, generative engine optimisation) is the discipline of making sure you do.
How we approach AI search.
01
LLM visibility audit
We test how Copilot, ChatGPT, Gemini and Perplexity respond to the prompts your buyers actually use. Where you appear, where competitors appear, why.
02
Citation-worthy content
AI search engines cite sources that are clear, structured, factual and well-attributed. Most maritime marketing copy fails on at least two of those.
03
Structured data & schema
Organisation, Product, Service, FAQ, HowTo and Article schema that gives LLMs the structured signals they prefer.
04
llms.txt & accessibility
Practical implementation of emerging standards, plus making sure your most important pages are crawlable, parseable and self-contained.
05
Brand authority signals
AI engines weight publications, directories and review platforms. We build presence where it counts, the trade press, class societies, industry directories, and prune where it doesn't.
06
Tracking & measurement
Server logs, referrer analysis, periodic prompt testing and brand-mention monitoring. The closest thing to attribution available right now.
An honest note on AI SEO.
The discipline is new. The standards are unsettled. Anyone who tells you they have AI search "guaranteed" is selling you something. What we can do is run a rigorous, evidence-led programme that compounds, better content, better structure, better authority, and treats AI engines as another (increasingly important) discovery channel.
Done well, AI SEO and traditional SEO reinforce each other. The structural discipline that ranks you in Google increasingly correlates with the citations you earn from LLMs. We run them as one programme, not two.
