AEO Basics

AEO helps AI engines like ChatGPT, Gemini, and Perplexity understand, cite, and recommend your brand when users are asking product related questions. Users are shifting from clicking links to trusting AI summaries, which is why AEO has become such a crucial practice. Frevana helps brands show up in those AI answers by identifying the questions people ask and giving you the exact steps needed to win visibility.

SEO optimizes pages to rank in link-based search results, while AEO optimizes your brand’s content to be mentioned in AI-generated answers. Frevana focuses entirely on AEO. We analyze real AI answers, competitor citations, and question intent, so you can appear where users actually get their information.

AI engines pull from trusted, structured, and easy-to-read sources; they favor brands with clear product information, well-organized content, and consistent signals across the web. Frevana shows you exactly what these models look for and builds AI-friendly content and landing pages that increase your chances of being cited.

AEO is essential for every brand, especially startups and e-commerce sellers who need fast visibility without huge ad budgets. Frevana is built for smaller teams: we provide guided workflows, no-code setup, and even ready-made secondary domains so you can publish AI-citable content instantly.

Getting Started

Simply download the Frevana app and run your first Question Research Report. This gives you a clear view of what users ask AI about your product, which competitors show up, and where your visibility gaps are. From there, Frevana guides you step-by-step.

Most brands see measurable visibility improvements in at least 3 days, and usually within one week, as Frevana’s question research, full-stack citation audit, and optimized content tools get you appearing in AI answers.

Frevana’s three-step workflow is the fastest way to increase visibility:

  • Discover what users ask AI and identify missing citations.
  • Analyze competitor mentions and AI accessibility issues.
  • Create content that AI engines will actually cite.

In the final step, our system builds your AI-citable content automatically:

  • AI-optimized landing pages based on user scenarios and personas
  • FAQ pages that answer product-related questions
  • Product comparison guides
  • Product review summaries
  • Educational content

Publishing these through Frevana’s ready-made domains gives you the fastest path to stronger AI visibility.

Technical Issues

Frevana automatically generates a complete LLMs.txt file for you, customized to your domain. You simply upload the file to the root of your website—no coding or configuration needed. This allows AI crawlers to understand what content you want them to reference and improves your site’s AI accessibility.

Our Full-Stack Data Scientist audit checks whether AI crawlers can access your content, identifies any blocking rules in robots.txt or missing entries in LLMs.txt, and recommends exact fixes. This ensures your site is fully optimized for AI discovery and citation.

Frevana scans AI-generated answers across platforms like ChatGPT, Gemini, and Perplexity to detect when a competitor is mentioned, how frequently they appear, and which types of content lead to their inclusion. You get a clear view of why competitors are cited and what steps you can take to outperform them.

The Question Researcher analyzes question clusters, semantic patterns, and rising query themes to surface trending and high-intent opportunities. It also detects hidden user needs—questions that aren’t keyword-searchable but appear inside AI conversations, giving you insights traditional SEO tools cannot provide.

AEO Practical

AI-readable content must be structured, concise, and aligned with user scenarios. Frevana handles this automatically by building landing pages based on persona insights and real-world use cases. We format content so AI models can easily parse and cite it—clean sections, explicit comparisons, clear value statements, and scenario-driven explanations.

The most important AEO metrics include:

  • AI Answer Visibility: How often your brand shows up in AI responses
  • Competitor Citation Share: How visible your competitors are in the same answers
  • Question Coverage: How many relevant questions your brand appears in
  • AI Accessibility Score: How readable your site is for AI crawlers
  • Content Impact: Which pages contribute to new citations

Frevana tracks these metrics for you and shows movement over time.

AI engines rely on structured, credible, and scenario-based content; if your brand isn’t appearing in AI answers, it’s usually because your site lacks AI-citable landing pages, isn’t fully accessible to AI crawlers, or is overshadowed by competitors already dominating existing answer patterns. In many cases, product information is incomplete or unclear, or your content doesn’t address the real questions users ask AI tools. Frevana identifies each of these gaps and builds the content you need to fix them—helping your brand become visible and recommendable across AI platforms.

We recommend updating core AEO content every four to six weeks, as AI engines shift their models, trends evolve, and new personas or scenarios emerge. Frevana flags when existing content becomes outdated or when new opportunities arise.
