When your customers ask ChatGPT, Perplexity or Google's AI which brand to choose, are you the answer, or is a competitor? Ranklore is a Singapore studio that makes brands citable in AI answers.
A growing share of searches never reach a website: the user gets a synthesised answer and acts on it. If that answer names a competitor and not you, the click, the enquiry and the sale go elsewhere, invisibly. This is most urgent for considered purchases, professional services, healthcare and local Singapore businesses where people ask "who / what / which is best" questions.
There's no switch to flip, but the levers are well understood, and they compound:
No honest studio guarantees AI citations; nobody controls what a model outputs. So Ranklore commits to proof instead of promises: a baseline measured before billing starts, monthly plain-language reports with verification prompts you can run yourself in ChatGPT, month-to-month terms with no lock-in, and a written day-90 kill criterion. You watch the progress; you don't take our word for it. In practice that means we track the exact prompts your buyers would type, such as "which accounting firm in Singapore is best for startups?", and show you month over month whether your name has started appearing in the answer.
AI visibility is how often your brand is mentioned, cited or recommended in the answers generated by AI engines such as ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude, Google AI Overviews and Gemini. Where SEO aims for a high rank in a list of links, AI visibility is about becoming the answer itself. It is earned through entity clarity, citable content, AI-crawler access and a strong online reputation, and it can't be bought like an ad.
Allow the AI crawlers in robots.txt; make your brand a clear entity with consistent name, address and phone details across every listing, structured data and an llms.txt; publish content that answers real questions with cited sources and quotable phrasing; earn mentions on Singapore sources the models trust; and build steady reviews across your Google Business Profile and the directories your industry actually uses. It compounds over weeks to months.
Think of it as an evolution. SEO aims to rank your page high in a list of blue links. AEO (Answer Engine Optimization) evolved to capture featured snippets and assistant replies. GEO (Generative Engine Optimization) is the next step: optimising your content to be cited and recommended inside the conversational answers models generate. They build on the same foundations, but GEO puts far more weight on factual accuracy, entity clarity and demonstrable trust. Ranklore runs all three as one programme.
Yes, though not on its own. Schema.org markup doesn't make a model like your content; it removes the guesswork about what your content is. Marking up your organisation, services, FAQs and articles gives an engine explicit, machine-readable facts about who you are and what you claim, which makes your page far easier to quote confidently. It works as the foundation under the other levers, not as a substitute for them.
They do. Models synthesise reputation data from across the web rather than reading a single rating. Consistent, genuine reviews on your Google Business Profile, on industry-specific directories and on the Singapore platforms your buyers actually read all act as trust signals, and a business that looks well-reviewed across several independent sources is a safer candidate for an engine to recommend.
No honest agency does; AI citations are earned, not guaranteed. Ranklore commits to the Receipts System instead: baseline before billing, monthly reports with prompts you can verify yourself, month-to-month with no lock-in, and a written day-90 kill criterion.
Technical foundations take effect as engines re-crawl, usually days to a few weeks. Citation gains from content and authority compound over roughly three to six months. Durable AI visibility is built, not bought.
Ranklore checks what ChatGPT, Perplexity and Google AI say about you versus your competitors, then makes you citable.
