Frequently asked

Common questions about the calculator, GEO, and AI Share of Voice.

What is GEO (Generative Engine Optimization)?

GEO is the practice of optimizing a brand's content, entity authority, and structured data so that generative AI engines like ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, Claude, and Grok cite the brand when users ask buyer-intent questions. Unlike SEO, success is measured by citation rate and AI Share of Voice, not blue-link rankings.

How is AI Share of Voice calculated?

AI Share of Voice is the percentage of relevant buyer-intent prompts in a category where an AI engine cites or recommends a given brand. mapou tracks this across five engines (ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, Claude, Grok) over a fixed 20-prompt taxonomy per segment.

What inputs does the calculator use?

Three: estimated monthly category-relevant AI search volume, your current AI Share of Voice (the percentage of those prompts where you are cited), and your conversion rate to revenue. The output is an illustrative range, not a forecast.

Why are the calculator's numbers illustrative, not forecasts?

The calculator uses industry-wide benchmarks for AI search volume and citation-to-conversion rates. Your real numbers depend on category, brand, and engine mix. The free AI visibility check at mapou.ai/check measures your actual citation rate against real prompts on four AI engines.

How long does it take to improve AI Share of Voice?

Initial citation movement is typically observable in weeks once entity, schema, and content fixes are deployed. A full Share of Voice shift, where a brand becomes a default recommendation in a category, usually takes 3 to 6 months and depends on engine cadence and competitor activity.
