The real problem
Google search results look different than they did two years ago. AI-generated answers now appear at the top of the page — before any blue links, before any map pack, before your website. ChatGPT handles 200 million queries every day. Perplexity is sending referral traffic that rivals Facebook. If your business isn't structured to be cited by these AI systems, you're invisible to a growing segment of buyers who never scroll past the AI answer — and they're making hiring decisions based on who the AI recommends.
How Boxi does it
What's included
Structured data schema markup
FAQ schema, HowTo schema, LocalBusiness schema — the technical signals AI systems use to identify your business as a credible source worth citing. Most agencies skip this entirely.
E-E-A-T authority content
Experience, Expertise, Authoritativeness, Trustworthiness — the signals that tell AI systems your content comes from a real expert. First-person expertise documentation, credentials, and project-specific content that generic agencies can't replicate.
Answer-format content
Content structured to directly answer the questions homeowners ask AI assistants: "Who is the best HVAC company near me?" "What should I expect from a roof replacement?" AI cites answers it can extract — we write them.
AI search visibility monitoring
We track where your business appears in ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google AI Overviews — monthly. If you're not being cited, we show you the gap and fix it. Most agencies can't even run this report.
Google AI Overview optimization
AI Overviews now appear in 15%+ of all searches — above paid ads, above organic results, above the map pack. We optimize your content to appear in those answers for your highest-value service keywords.
Traditional SEO included
AI SEO doesn't replace traditional SEO — it extends it. Every engagement includes on-page optimization, keyword targeting, and content that serves both Google's algorithm and AI citation systems.

Frequently asked questions
What's the difference between regular SEO and AI SEO?
Traditional SEO focuses on ranking in Google's blue-link results and the local Map Pack. AI SEO (also called Generative Engine Optimization or GEO) focuses on getting your business cited by AI systems: ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google AI Overviews, and Gemini. Traditional SEO is about keywords and backlinks. AI SEO is about structured data, authority signals, and answer-format content that AI systems can extract, trust, and cite. You need both — but most agencies are only doing one.
Is AI search actually sending real leads to contractors?
Yes, and the numbers are accelerating. AI search referral traffic grew 527% year-over-year in 2024–2025. ChatGPT now processes 200 million queries daily. Google AI Overviews appear in more than 15% of all searches. Homeowners are asking AI "who's the best HVAC company near me?" If your business isn't optimized to appear in those answers, your competitor who is optimized is taking those calls.
Can't my current SEO agency handle AI SEO?
Most cannot. The majority of traditional SEO agencies have added "AI SEO" to their service descriptions without changing their methodology. Real GEO requires specific technical implementations: FAQ schema, HowTo schema, LocalBusiness schema, E-E-A-T authority content, and active monitoring of AI search appearances. If your current agency can't show you a report on where your business appears in ChatGPT or Perplexity, they're not doing AI SEO.
How does Google AI Overviews affect my Google Ads?
AI Overviews appear above paid ads in many searches, pushing down both organic and paid results. Contractors relying heavily on Google Ads are seeing higher CPCs as competition for lower ad positions intensifies. The strategic response: optimize for AI Overview citations so your business appears in the AI answer itself, and maintain Google Ads for emergency-intent searches where AI Overviews appear less frequently.
How long does it take to appear in AI search results?
Structured data improvements can influence AI systems within 4–8 weeks — AI crawlers update frequently. E-E-A-T authority building takes 3–6 months to accumulate. Contractors with strong existing SEO foundations see results faster. We track your AI search visibility from day one and report on it monthly.
