AEO // B2B SAAS

AEO for B2B SaaS

When buyers ask ChatGPT for category recommendations, your name should be in the answer.

/01 — THE GAP

Why most b2b saas are invisible to AI search.

B2B buyers no longer start in Google. They open ChatGPT, Claude, or Perplexity and ask "what is the best [category] tool for [use case]?" If your brand is not in the answer, you do not exist for that buyer.

AI engines do not pull from your homepage. They pull from G2, Capterra, Reddit, industry roundups, and tier-1 press. Most SaaS sites have zero structured data, weak review profiles, and no citation footprint outside their own domain.
