Medtech SEO
SEO, AEO and GEO for Medtech and Digital Health Companies
Clinicians and procurement teams compare devices and clinical software through search and AI answers, reading evidence and regulatory status before they request a demo. If engines misclassify your product or cite a competitor's study, you are off the shortlist. Our medtech SEO combines SEO, AEO and GEO, from structured product and evidence pages to the sources engines trust. We count demo requests and RFPs against a fixed baseline.
Why medtech buyers shortlist before they ever contact you
A surgeon weighing a new device, a lab manager comparing analysers and a procurement lead drafting a tender list all start the same way. They search for comparisons, accuracy data and clearance status, then ask an AI engine to summarise the evidence. The answer names the products with clear documentation, published studies and a stated regulatory status. By the time a demo request or RFP reaches you, the shortlist is usually written, and products engines could not read are left off it.
What we build for medtech SEO and AI answers
Medtech buyers read evidence, specifications and regulatory status before anything else, so that is where we start. We turn what your regulatory and clinical teams have already approved into pages engines can read and quote, and every word goes through your review process before it ships.
Covered on every engine your buyers use
- ChatGPT
- Perplexity
- Claude
- Gemini
- Google AI Overviews
- Google AI Mode
- Copilot
- Bing
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 business, 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 AI citations, rankings and the leads they drive against the baseline and keep refining.
Days 60 to 90. A first read against the baseline, then the next quarter planned.
Case studies
Neither case study is a medtech company. We used the same method for a finance automation platform whose separate capabilities crawlers could not tell apart, and for an AI ad tool, and that method is what carries over.

Questions buyers ask us
How do you describe a new device category so engines understand it?
We start with the words clinicians already use for the problem, then define your category against them in one plain sentence that sits on your homepage, product pages and schema. Each product page states what it is, what it is cleared or certified for, who uses it and in which care setting. When that description repeats across your site, regulatory listings, distributor pages and the trade press, engines stop filing you under the wrong category.
How do evidence pages help us get cited?
Engines quote what they can read. A study locked in a journal PDF is hard to cite, while a page that states the question, the population, the endpoints and the result in plain language, with a link to the published paper, is easy to quote. We build one evidence page per study or claim, reviewed by your clinical and regulatory teams. Shaping those pages for quotation is the answer engine optimization side of the work.
Will the content pass our compliance review?
It is written to, and nothing ships until your regulatory team approves it. We work from your cleared or certified intended use and your approved claims, follow FDA rules in the US and MDR in Europe, and never write off-label claims or imply uses you are not cleared for. Comparison pages stick to published, referenced data. We keep a record of each approved version so your review history stays complete.
Can you handle distributor and multi-country sites?
Yes. Many medtech companies run country sites with different approved claims and sell through distributors whose catalogues outrank them. We set up hreflang so each country sees its own version, keep regulatory status correct for each market, and give distributors accurate product data so their pages describe you the way you do. Where a distributor page is the one engines cite, we work on making it accurate rather than competing with it.
How do you attribute demo requests to search and AI answers?
We tag demo requests, clinician and procurement enquiries, RFP downloads and distributor leads in your own analytics and pass the source into your CRM. AI answer referrals are tracked where the engines pass them, and branded searches and direct visits that follow a citation are tracked alongside. Medtech sales cycles are long, so we report enquiries every month and follow them through to opportunities as far as your CRM allows.
Does search matter when hospitals buy through procurement?
Yes, because the shortlist is written before the tender. The clinicians who champion a device, the biomedical engineers who assess it and the procurement team all research online first, and an AI summary is often the first comparison they read. If your product is missing or misdescribed there, you can lose the spec-in before any RFP exists. Search does not replace your field team. It decides which products your field team gets asked about.
How long before we see results?
Technical fixes and rebuilt product pages register first, because engines that search the web read the new version on their next visit. Evidence pages, trade press coverage and corrected distributor listings take longer, and regulatory review adds time to every page, so we plan for it. We set the baseline in the first 30 days and give you the first full read against it at day 90, with no promised rankings, citations or demo numbers.
What does it cost?
There are three plans. Link Building and Brand Mentions is $499 per month, SEO Consulting is $999 per month and Full Service SEO and AI Visibility is $1,499 per month with a three-month minimum. Medtech work usually needs Full Service, because pages, evidence and tracking move together. There is also a one-time $199 AI Visibility Audit. Trade press, listing and catalogue fees are paid by you. Details are on our pricing page.
Do you need access to our systems?
Yes, to a few. We need your analytics, Search Console, your CMS and the CRM fields that record demo requests and enquiries. We don't need quality, complaint or clinical data, and we won't ask for it. Your regulatory team keeps control of the review workflow and we fit into it, whether that is a document control system or a shared review folder. Nothing we draft is published until it has passed that review.
