A monthly AEO report

What AI said, what changed, what we fixed and what we're fixing next.

Projects we're proud of.

From first check to monthly report.

Four steps from what AI says about you today to a site it can read, quote and recommend.

01

Baseline

Your AEO score across four pillars, plus the questions your buyers ask run through the main AI engines, so we know where you stand on day one.

02

Fix the structure

AI crawlers let in, schema written in JSON-LD, llms.txt published, sitemap and metadata put right. The structure machines read goes live first.

03

Answer the questions

Pages and FAQs that answer what your buyers ask, in direct, self-contained answers with the specifics AI quotes: figures, names and places.

04

Monitor and report

Every month we ask the same questions again, record what changed, ship the next fixes and send you the report.

We built it for

our own brand first.

hydro's own site carries llms.txt and schema on every page, and our AEO Assessment scores any site. Yours gets the same team.

Tracked across the main AI engines

Every month we track how the main AI engines, ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini and Perplexity among them, describe you: who is named, what is said and whether you're cited.

Scored on four pillars

Content, technical, authority and measurement, each on five levels from Found to Recommended, so progress is a score you can follow.

Fixes shipped by us

Schema, llms.txt, crawler access, page structure and copy, changed in Webflow by the team that found the gap.

Written to be quoted

Direct answers, clear definitions and real specifics in your voice. hydro writes the copy, so the page reads well to people and to machines.

AI traffic, measured

With Webflow Analyze switched on, you see how many visitors AI assistants send you and how they convert, next to search, social and referrals.

A report every month

What AI said about you, what changed since last month, what we fixed and what we're fixing next, in one short report.

Are we any good? Don't take our word for it.

Created a brand that could stand on its own.

The team at hydro delivered exactly what we asked for. The brand now reflects where we are today.

The answers you're looking for.

What is answer engine optimisation (AEO)?

Answer engine optimisation is the work of making sure AI assistants such as ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini and Perplexity can find your brand, describe it accurately and recommend it when buyers ask. hydro's AEO service does that work every month: monitoring, fixes and a report.

How is this different from the free AEO Assessment?

The assessment is a snapshot: a score out of 100, a level for each pillar and your top five fixes, by email within the hour. The AEO service is what comes after. We make the fixes, run the checks again every month and keep improving how AI describes you. You can start with the free assessment at hydro.website/aeo-assessment.

How is AEO different from SEO?

SEO earns you a place on a results page. AEO earns you a place inside the answer. The foundations overlap: a fast, well-structured site with useful pages does well at both. AEO adds what search alone never asked for: llms.txt, question-led answers and a record of what AI says about you.

Which AI assistants do you track?

The main AI engines, ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Perplexity and Google's AI Overviews among them. Each month we ask them the questions your buyers ask, plus your brand name, and record who gets named, whether you're cited with a link and how you're described.

How long before AI recommends us?

The structure work goes live first: crawler access, schema and llms.txt. What AI says changes as each engine reads your site again, on its own schedule, so we don't promise a date or a position. The monthly report shows what has shifted and what we're changing next.

Do we need to be on Webflow?

The monitoring and the monthly report work on any website. The fixes are made by our team in Webflow, where we build every day. If your site is on another platform, that's a Webflow Development conversation first.
