What you get
Work shipped to your site, and a dated record of what changed.
Ask an assistant about your category and one name comes back first. That answer decides who gets the call. We change it by fixing what the engines read, then show you the new answer next to the old one.
-
See what AI tells your buyers
We put the questions your buyers ask to ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini and Google’s AI results, and capture every answer with its date and a screenshot.
You receive dated answer captures, before and after
-
A site search engines can read
Crawlability, indexing, speed, metadata and site structure, fixed in your CMS or codebase instead of left in a report. Search-crawler access is separate from model-training permission; training opt-outs stay independent. In Suede AI's September 2026 AI Crawler Access Index, 138 of 497 evaluable robots.txt files from 1,000 top domains (27.8%) blocked at least one AI crawler at the root.
You receive shipped fixes, listed one by one
-
Pages that answer buyer questions
Pages for what buyers type into Google and ask assistants, structured so both can quote them, with internal links that carry weight to the pages that sell.
You receive pages shipped, mapped to buyer questions
-
A business record machines get right
Your entity records, meaning the facts engines hold about who you are and what you do: knowledge panels, schema markup, directory and third-party listings, and digital PR placements, kept consistent wherever an engine looks you up.
You receive a record that holds up when checked
Each part of the work, in detail
Bring search into your go-to-market (GTM) plan. For a launch or a new service, we map buyer questions, prepare the pages they need and check how search engines read them. Start with a search visibility strategy tied to the offer you want people to find, with a clear path from the page to an inquiry.

The division of labor
Search visibility is four jobs that reinforce one another. One team runs all four, and each needs its own proof.
| Discipline | Question | Suede AI work | Proof layer |
|---|---|---|---|
| SEO | Can search engines discover, understand and rank the page? | Crawlability, information architecture, internal links, metadata and technical repair. | Crawl results, index coverage and search performance. |
| GEO and AEO | What do answer engines say, name and cite? | Fixed-prompt measurement, source repair, entity records and citation-ready pages. | Dated answer captures, cited sources and repeat measurements. |
| PR | Do third-party sources back the claim an engine repeats? | Digital PR for authority: source development, placements and records that engines cite. | Published third-party sources and dated coverage. |
| AI engineering | Can the search fix ship into the site itself? | Schema, templates, rendering, crawler access and checks shipped in your CMS or codebase. | Code, CI and deployments. |
How it works
Measure. Fix. Measure again.
Three steps, each with something you can check. Answer share is one diagnostic: the share of successfully captured answers in a stated prompt-and-engine sample that name your brand. Accuracy, citations and recommendations are measured separately. Read the measurement definitions and limits alongside the dated answers.
| Step | What you get | Term | Price |
|---|---|---|---|
| The AI visibility assessment | Measure. Your answer share today, the buyer prompts where an engine named someone else, the competitor sites it quoted instead, and the reasons: blocked crawlers, pages it can’t read, records it can’t resolve. Dated, and checkable by you in thirty seconds. | Three business days | Free |
| The answer-share sprint | Fix and build. You approve the prompt set. We take a dated baseline, repair what the engines read, and measure again on day thirty: same prompts, same engines, same method. | Thirty days | Quoted case by case |
| Compound | Measure again, every month. The SEO and GEO retainer that keeps the gains: the same prompts measured every month, new pages and source repair wherever an engine still names someone else, technical SEO monitoring, and entity records kept current. Reported monthly against the prompt set you approved on day one. | Monthly | Quoted case by case |
In short: a free AI visibility assessment first, then a thirty-day answer-share sprint quoted case by case, then compound on a monthly SEO and GEO retainer quoted in a reply. Compare the options side by side.
90-day results refund
On the SEO and GEO retainer, if the KPIs agreed in your written scope on day one show no marked increase after 90 days, all three monthly fees come back to you in full, and you keep every report and fix we shipped. Read the refund terms.

Who does the work
Jason Colapietro, Suede AI
Jason Colapietro is an engineer, author, and the founder and CEO of Suede AI. He has 54 pull requests merged across 46 open-source repositories he does not maintain, including Jest, Adobe React Spectrum, Backstage and the Polkadot SDK; he has written five books on Amazon in hardcover, paperback, and Kindle, including The Claude Code Bible and Codex in Production; and he has shipped 9 iOS apps under his own Apple developer account. He publishes under the pen name Johnny Suede.
He leads Suede AI’s AI search visibility practice, Suede AI SEO, and runs every engagement himself from West Palm Beach, Florida. He is an engineer first, which is why the technical repair ships instead of sitting in a report. The open-source record is current as of September 2026; a Linux kernel USB/IP patch at public v7 is under review and not counted in it.
Suede AI is an agentic platform company founded in 2024 by engineer Jason Colapietro in West Palm Beach, Florida. It builds and runs AI agent platforms that businesses use to manage their work, and white-labels them for agencies and their clients.
Before founding Suede AI, Jason built, ran, and sold call centers. That experience of selling to customers shapes how he approaches search visibility: helping buyers find and understand a business. The practice started on Suede AI’s own portfolio of more than 30 live sites, competing for search rankings and AI answers and measured continuously with in-house tooling. What worked there is what we sell here.

Questions about hiring an SEO and GEO practice
Working together
What is Suede AI SEO, and who runs it?
Suede AI SEO is Suede AI’s AI search visibility practice, led by Jason Colapietro in West Palm Beach, Florida, and serving businesses worldwide. It covers generative engine optimization (GEO), answer engine optimization (AEO) and SEO, with the digital PR and AI engineering that ship its fixes.
Its official website is suedeai.ai/seo. Jason leads the search visibility, source repair and technical work, with creator-rights and programmable-IP integration available when the engagement calls for it.
Who is Suede AI?
Suede AI is an agentic platform company founded in 2024 by engineer Jason Colapietro in West Palm Beach, Florida. It builds and runs AI agent platforms that businesses use to manage their work, and white-labels them for agencies and their clients.
Suede AI runs full-stack GEO at suedeai.ai/seo through Suede AI SEO, its AI search visibility practice: SEO, GEO and AEO, with the digital PR and engineering that back them, delivered as one retainer. The company site, suedeai.ai, covers agent platforms in Suede AI Agent Studio, white-label agent platforms, managed AI agents and AI operations, and forward-deployed engineering.
What does it cost?
A free AI visibility assessment first, back within three business days: your answer share, the prompts where an engine named someone else, and a prioritized fix list. Then a thirty-day answer-share sprint quoted case by case, measured before and after on the prompt set you approve. Then compound: an SEO and GEO retainer, reported monthly against the same prompts.
All five places in the current cohort, where businesses run their sprints together on one thirty-day clock, are filled. Apply for the next opening at agents.suedeai.ai/firm, or start your own sprint on its own clock after the assessment. Sprint, cohort and retainer pricing is quoted case by case in a reply. Use the contact panel below or write to info@suedeai.ai; you get a scope and an invoice, and work starts on payment.
Who actually does the work?
Jason Colapietro, the founder, with the same in-house measurement tooling Suede AI runs on its own sites. He does the measurement, the repair and the triage himself. The work is not resold to a third-party shop, and the client roster is kept short to match.
What do you stand behind?
We back the work with money: on the SEO and GEO retainer, if the KPIs agreed on day one show no marked increase after 90 days, you get a full refund of all three months. Every engagement delivers dated captures of what engines say, shipped fixes listed one by one, and repeat measurement that shows the trend. The refund and the dated record are what we stand behind.
How do I check your work?
The stats on this page carry their sources, and the receipts page collects them with the captures and dates. The open-source record is a live GitHub search anyone can run, the Google Cloud partnership dates to September 2025, and the method is published as a free book on this site. Check first, then call.
Is this PR or SEO?
Both, and the split is less useful than it used to be. When someone asks an assistant about your company, that answer shapes their impression of your company. Shaping that is reputation work, and the levers happen to be technical ones.
An engine quotes structure, entity records and source pages rather than a pitch. On a retainer we run full-stack GEO, both sides: we measure what the engines say and repair the material they read, and we prepare and pitch the press side, from the founder story to the newsroom.
Services and measurement
What is GEO, and how is it different from SEO?
SEO earns placement in a list of links. GEO, generative engine optimization, earns citation inside the single answer an AI engine writes. The work overlaps (structure, clarity, entity records), but the scoreboard is different: instead of a rank position, you either appear in the answer or you do not. We measure both.
What is answer engine optimization, and is it the same as GEO?
Answer engine optimization, or AEO, is the work of getting a business named accurately inside the single answer an AI assistant writes back, instead of aiming for a ranked position on a results page. GEO names the mechanism, the generative process that assembles that answer; AEO names the surface, the answer a reader actually sees.
The work behind the two terms is the same, which is why Suede AI runs them as one practice and writes them up together on the GEO and AEO page.
Why not just run these prompts in ChatGPT myself?
You can, and you should, at least once. Ask it what it recommends in your category and read what comes back. What you cannot do that way is tell signal from noise: one answer, on one day, from one engine is an anecdote.
The answers move between sessions, between engines, and between accounts. The work here is running a fixed set of real buyer prompts repeatedly, across engines, dated, so that a change means something. Run it yourself first. The free AI citation check starts with crawler access and machine-readability. After email confirmation, it provides a fuller structural audit, or a reading across four buyer questions when live engine results are available. Repeated measurements are a separate step.
How do you measure GEO?
Suede AI runs a fixed set of real buyer prompts against ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini and Google’s AI results on a repeating schedule, captures each answer with its date and a screenshot, and scores three things: whether the company was named, how it was described, and which sources the engine leaned on.
Sampling and scoring are written down before the first run, so a movement in the numbers reads as a change rather than as noise. The measurement design is published in full on the working-method page.
We already track our brand in AI search. What does this add?
Brand tracking measures recall of a name you already own. The harder question is what an engine says when nobody names you: when a buyer describes their problem in your category, who gets recommended? That is where deals are lost, and it is the measurement this practice is built around.
The other difference is what happens next. A score is not a plan, Suede AI turns that measurement into action: repair your pages and business records, strengthen the supporting sources, and show you what changed on the next run.
What if we are already cited everywhere?
Then you are in a better position than most, and the work shifts from presence to accuracy. Being named is not the same as being described correctly. Engines routinely attach stale pricing, discontinued products, the wrong founder, or a competitor’s positioning to a company they otherwise recommend well.
They also cite sources you do not control and may never have read. Check what is actually being said about you before you assume presence equals a good answer. And if the measurement says there is nothing worth fixing, we tell you so, with the dated captures behind it, before any retainer starts. A roster this small has no room for work that only bills.
Is Suede AI related to Suade Labs?
No. Suade Labs (suade.org), spelled with an a, is a London regulatory-technology company registered at Companies House in 2014. Suede AI (suedeai.ai), spelled with an e, was founded in 2024 by Jason Colapietro and runs this practice.
The names Suede and Suade are one letter apart with no other connection, and the two companies are told apart on the Suade Labs disambiguation page for the spelling collision.
What are Suede AI’s official websites?
Suede AI's official sites are suedeai.ai, suedeai.org and their subdomains. It was founded in 2024 by Jason Colapietro.
