83% of restaurants are invisible to ChatGPT and Google's AI search right now. Run a real check below — free, no signup — then see exactly what to fix.
Built for single-location, independently owned restaurants — not franchises or chains.
They're getting recommendations from ChatGPT, Gemini, and Google's AI Overviews instead of scrolling search results. AEO is how you show up in that answer.
A diner asks, AI answers with names. If yours isn't one of them, you're out before you even knew you were in the running.
Know AEO doesn't just show you the gap. It tells you exactly what's broken and what we're doing about it, every month.
No black box. You see exactly what's broken and exactly what changed.
Your visibility score shows how often your restaurant appears in real AI answers across ChatGPT, Gemini, and Claude. One number, updated every month, so "improving" is measured — not a feeling.
Most tools leave you guessing which questions to track. Know AEO runs the real ones — "best restaurant in your area," "where should I eat near me" — and shows you exactly which ones mention you and which don't.
We add Restaurant, Menu, LocalBusiness, and FAQPage schema, complete your Google Business Profile, and fix citation mismatches — the actual data layer AI models read to decide how confident they are about you.
Insights without action are just numbers. Every month, Know AEO turns your audit into a short, ranked list of exactly what to fix next — and why it matters.
AEO is not SEO with a new name. It's a distinct discipline — here's exactly what that means in practice.
We add Restaurant, Menu, LocalBusiness, and FAQPage schema — itemized dishes with dietary flags, service options (dine-in, delivery, takeout), hours, and coordinates — so AI models can parse your business as a verified entity instead of guessing from a photo-heavy page.
We fill every field AI models actually check: categories, hours, photos, menu links, attributes. Gaps here are exactly what makes a model "unsure" enough to leave you out of an answer.
Your name, address, and phone number get matched exactly across Google, TripAdvisor, Zomato, Talabat, and every directory AI models cross-reference to decide how confident to be about you.
We rewrite your menu descriptions, About section, and FAQs in the direct, factual language AI models actually quote from — not marketing copy that gets filtered out as noise.
We re-run the exact same AI queries from your original check, every month, on the same schedule — the only way a before/after comparison means anything.
Your visibility score is plotted month over month, so "improving" is a measured number, not a feeling we're asking you to trust.
Every month you get a short, direct summary: what changed, what we fixed, what's still open, and what we're doing about it next.
You can ask us to re-run any specific query at any time — you're never stuck waiting for the monthly cycle to see if something landed.
Not a vague "ongoing optimization" retainer — here's the real cadence behind it.
Re-confirm the audit results, then install or fix Restaurant, Menu, LocalBusiness, and FAQPage schema markup on your site so AI models can read you as a real, verified entity.
What we need from you: view access to your Google Business Profile and a way to submit site edits — no code work required on your end.
Complete every field on your Google Business Profile and fix name/address/phone mismatches across TripAdvisor, Zomato, Talabat, and other directories AI models cross-reference.
Rewrite menu descriptions, your About section, and FAQs in the direct, factual language AI models actually quote from — replacing marketing copy that gets filtered out.
Re-run the exact same AI queries from month one, measure what moved, and send you a plain-language report — plus the priorities for next month.
We deliberately keep this simple — one retainer, billed monthly, nothing to negotiate.
Less than the margin on one lost table booking, most weeks.
No setup fee. No contract. If your visibility score doesn't move in month one, message us and we'll tell you exactly why — free.
Direct answers first, context after — the same standard we hold your restaurant's content to.
AEO is the practice of making your restaurant's information — menu, location, reviews, hours — structured and factual enough that AI tools like ChatGPT, Gemini, and Google AI Overviews can confidently recommend you when someone asks where to dine, instead of defaulting to competitors with cleaner data.
SEO optimizes for clicks on a search results page. AEO optimizes for being the actual answer an AI model gives — through structured data, consistent listings, and content written in the direct, factual language these models quote from, rather than keyword-stuffed marketing copy.
Run Know AEO's free live check at the top of this page. It asks real AI models the same generic and brand-name questions a customer would, in real time, and shows you exactly which ones already know you — and which don't.
A full monthly cycle: schema markup and structured data fixes, Google Business Profile completeness, citation/NAP consistency across directories, AI-readable content rewrites, and a re-audit with a plain-language report — month-to-month, no lock-in contract.
Most fixes — schema, listings, content — go live within the first two weeks. Because AI models re-crawl and re-index on their own schedules, the earliest reliable read on movement is your month-two re-audit, which is why we re-run the same audit every month rather than promising an exact date.
No — and treat anyone who promises that with suspicion. AI recommendation logic isn't fully public, even to the model makers. What we do guarantee is targeting the actual mechanical reasons a business gets omitted, and proving whether that moved the needle with the same real audit each month.
Almost nothing. We need view access to your Google Business Profile and a way to submit edits to your website (or your web person's contact) — that's it. No meetings required unless you want them.
Most web developers optimize for Google's blue links, not for what ChatGPT or Gemini quote from. AEO means structuring your menu, hours, and business data specifically in the format AI models pull from when they answer "where should I eat" — a distinct, narrower skill most general developers don't specialize in.
Ranking well on Google Maps doesn't mean AI models recommend you — they're increasingly separate systems. Run the free check above; it takes 20 seconds and shows you the real gap on ChatGPT, Gemini, and Claude specifically, independent of your Maps ranking.
