Why AI visibility stalls without a senior owner
AI visibility touches marketing, product and engineering, so without one senior owner it splits three ways and nobody decides which prompts matter. A consultant fills that gap without a full-time hire. One experienced person setting priorities and checking the output gets more done than a bigger team learning your product from scratch.
How the AI visibility consultant engagement works
You get one senior person, not a rotating team. The engagement mixes strategy you can take to the board with hands-on work, and where you have people, it makes them faster instead of replacing them.

ChatGPT search and Copilot draw on Bing's index, so Bing rankings feed AI answers. We work on search and AI engines as one program.
How it works
The same four steps on every engagement, with a clear view of what to expect at 30, 60 and 90 days.
-
01
Understand
Map your product, buyers, competitors and the prompts and searches that decide your category.
Days 1 to 30. A fixed baseline across every engine and the prompts that matter.
-
02
Prioritize
Pick the few moves that will get you recommended fastest and turn them into a focused roadmap.
Days 1 to 30. A focused roadmap agreed, with the first fixes already shipping.
-
03
Execute
Do the technical, content, authority and AI visibility work ourselves.
Days 30 to 60. Content, technical and authority work shipping every week.
-
04
Improve
Track citations, rankings and conversions against the baseline and keep refining.
Days 60 to 90. A first read against the baseline, then the next quarter planned.
Results we can show you
Every engagement is measured against a fixed baseline set before the work started, so the before and after can be checked rather than taken on trust.

Who's behind SearchAxe
Amit Malvi spent four and a half years at Invideo AI, rising from SEO Executive to Senior SEO Manager. He built and led a 20-person link building team and owned the company's GEO and AEO programs. Today he works hands-on with a small number of AI startups.
Questions buyers ask us
Do you work as a fractional GEO consultant?
Yes, that's what this engagement is. Generative engine optimization (GEO) is the work of getting your product named in AI answers, and here Amit leads it part-time. He sets the prompt priorities, writes the briefs and reviews your team's work, and tasks nobody on your side can take are done under his review. It suits teams who need senior direction more than extra hands.
Do I get Amit, or someone junior?
Amit leads it. He spent four and a half years at Invideo AI, rising from SEO Executive to Senior SEO Manager, built and led a 20-person link building team, and owned the company's AI search programs. He sets the strategy and reviews the work himself, which is why we take on a small number of clients.
When should we pick a tool instead?
When someone senior on your team already knows what to do and only needs the data. A tracking tool tells you where you're named; it can't decide which prompts matter or rewrite the page that loses them. Some teams run a tool and a consultant together, using the consultant to turn the tool's data into a plan.
What does our own team still do?
Most of the shipping, if you have the people. Your writers draft pages from briefs tied to a specific buying prompt, your engineers make the crawler, rendering and schema changes, and someone on your side owns approvals. Amit sets the priorities and reviews each change before it goes live. Anything nobody on your side can take is done by SearchAxe under his review.
How long before we see results?
Direction comes first. Within the first month you'll have the baseline and a ranked list of prompts. Results take longer and depend on how fast your team ships. Page and crawler fixes register once engines revisit, while mentions on outside sources take months to earn. The first full read against the baseline comes at day 90.
Can we start with a consultant and move to full service later?
Yes. Starting with direction and reviews, then handing over more once you see which work moves the numbers, is a sensible path. The baseline is set at the start either way, so nothing is lost when the scope changes. The next plan and quote simply cover the new split of work.
Which AI visibility results can you name?
Wisemonk's citations across AI answer engines rose 414%, with cited pages up from 70 to 299. HeyOz went from no AI citations to 91 and is cited by 6 of 7 major AI answer engines. Both were measured against a fixed baseline set before the work started, and both case studies are published.
How is the consultant engagement priced?
Quoted after a free consultation. The quote depends on how much of the work you want handled rather than directed, and how many prompts and engines are in scope. The plan spells out what we do and what your team does, so the split is clear before you approve anything and work begins.
