FAQ

Frequently asked questions

What is GEO?

GEO (Generative Engine Optimisation) helps brands improve visibility inside AI-generated answers on platforms like ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, and Perplexity. Unlike traditional SEO, GEO focuses on AI discoverability, recommendations, citations, and entity trust.

Is SEO still important in South Africa?

Yes — but SEO alone is no longer enough. South African consumers are increasingly using AI tools to research products, services, and recommendations. GEO works alongside SEO to help brands stay visible in the next generation of search.

How do I know if my brand appears in AI search?

The BrandRadar platform shows your real-time Brand Visibility score along with citations and competitor visibility. The BrandRadar team also audits how AI systems currently discover, understand, and reference your brand.

How long does AI visibility optimisation take?

Some improvements can happen within weeks, while larger authority and visibility gains build over 2 months. AI search optimisation is an ongoing process that evolves alongside changing AI retrieval systems.

Why does AI visibility matter for South African brands?

Search behaviour in South Africa is shifting rapidly toward conversational AI. Brands that adapt early can build stronger visibility, trust, and recommendation presence before AI search becomes fully mainstream — which is a window measured in months, not years.

Frequently Asked questions

What is Generative Engine Optimization (GEO)?

GEO is the practice of optimizing your brand’s presence in AI-generated responses across platforms like OpenAI (ChatGPT), Gemini, Perplexity, and others. Unlike traditional SEO, it focuses on how AI understands, ranks, and recommends your brand.

How is BrandRadar different from an SEO or prompt tracking tool?

BrandRadar goes beyond surface-level tracking. It not only monitors how often your brand appears in AI responses but also uncovers patterns in visibility, sentiment, and citations across platforms. This helps you understand what is driving performance and where to improve, unlike traditional tools that only track mentions.

What platforms does BrandRadar track?

We currently track top AI platforms including OpenAI, Gemini, Perplexity, Claude, Google SGE, and others. The platform continuously expands as new tools gain adoption.

How does BrandRadar collect and analyze data?

We analyze thousands of real-world prompts daily using proprietary systems across multiple AI models. The platform extracts key metrics like prompt frequency, sentiment, citation domains, and keyword patterns in a single dashboard.

Can I see how my competitors are performing?

Yes. BrandRadar includes competitive benchmarking that lets you compare visibility, prompt share, sentiment, and citation sources with your competitors or category leaders.
