Reputation Launches GEO Readiness Audit

In California, PR performance management specialist Reputation has introduced a Generative Engine Optimization (GEO) Readiness Audit, helping multi-location brands to assess and improve how they appear in AI-generated search results.

Reputation helps clients track, manage and optimize the online performance and image of their brand, The company launched a number of new and upgraded products last September, via its unified intelligence hub, as part of its built-for-AI strategy, and last month rolled out a new feature, AI Location Presence Insights, which audits the data signals that AI search engines use to decide which locations to recommend, enabling teams to take targeted action.

The new GEO tool is designed for marketing, CX and digital teams, and promises a clear view of how AI engines interpret, describe and recommend brands, along with recommended next steps to improve visibility and discoverability. The Audit builds on the company's existing AI visibility capabilities, comprising AI Reputation Manager (ARM), which shows how AI engines describe a brand, category or competitor, including sources cited; AI Location Profiles (ALP), reporting on listing accuracy, AI mention rates and sentiment, by location; GEO Readiness Audit, which evaluates technical discoverability, content structure and trust factors across public digital properties; and Location Pages 2.0, which automatically generates and manages dedicated web pages for each business location.

'AI-powered search has completely rewritten the playbook for digital discovery,' says CEO Joe Burton (pictured), 'making traditional search optimization tactics insufficient on their own. Being visible on Google no longer guarantees visibility on generative AI engines. If your digital footprint isn't optimized for how large language models extract information, your business is effectively invisible to consumers. The GEO Readiness Audit gives organizations a clear baseline for how AI engines interpret their digital presence and a roadmap for improving visibility, discoverability and trust.'
