Buying GEO answers
Scope, acceptance evidence and questions to ask before agreeing to work.
These 15 answers use dated Broadcastwell findings. Each page identifies its question, figure and source; a count in an answer does not establish product quality or a completed sale.
Delivery choices
Should I buy AI visibility monitoring or a completed page fix?
Buy observation or a defined change: a dated Procore page had 20 stated, 44 unstated and 28 unknown criteria.
Agency delivery
What belongs in a white-label GEO delivery scope?
Name the research, approval and implementation work: Study 7 extracted 2,003 criteria from 2,093 eligible answers.
Supplier coverage
How can I check whether a GEO tool covers the engines I need?
Ask for separate engine receipts: Procore was named in 0/3 AI Overviews answers and 3/3 AI Mode answers on one question.
Evidence handover
What evidence should I keep when an AI visibility engagement ends?
Keep answers, definitions and source receipts: HubSpot CRM was named in 113/150 answers and its domain cited in 34/150.
Access and permissions
What should I ask a GEO provider about MCP or API access?
Ask what data and actions access permits; Agent Gap found 210 destinations but reached a handoff in 163 task sessions.
Assessing supplier evidence
How should I evaluate a GEO case study?
Ask for the claim and evidence state: Wrong About You separated 118 wrong or stale statements from 880 unverifiable ones.
Comparing scope and price
How should I compare GEO quotes with different question sets?
Compare the question populations before quotes: workflow fit appeared in 17/149 construction answers in Study 7.
Counting quote units
Should I compare GEO prices per prompt or per valid answer?
Compare defined units: Dentrix had 150 planned answers but 149 valid answers, with 120 naming observations.
Agency reporting
How should an agency report AI visibility for multiple clients?
Separate client populations: Dentrix had 120/149 naming observations; Housecall Pro had 108/150 in another category.
Supplier commitments
Can a GEO agency guarantee AI recommendations?
Separate promised work from future answers: Housecall Pro was named in 108/150 dated answers, not a guaranteed outcome.
Accuracy alerts
What evidence should an AI factual-accuracy alert include?
An alert needs a dated claim, source and evidence state: Wrong About You classified 113 wrong, five stale and 880 unverifiable.
Content deliverables
What should a GEO content and implementation scope include?
Specify the source claim and served edit: Procore's page review had 20 stated, 44 unstated and 28 unknown criteria out of 92.
Initial project acceptance
What should an initial GEO project measure?
Agree the event and acceptance evidence first: Housecall Pro had 108/150 naming observations and 43/150 own-domain citations.
Evidence review
How should a regulated business assess AI visibility evidence?
Keep evidence gaps explicit: 880 of 2,922 statements were unverifiable in Wrong About You; that is not a compliance verdict.
Reading measurement methods
How can I check a GEO vendor's published measurement method?
Reconstruct one figure from the method: Dentrix had 120 naming observations in 149 valid answers after one exclusion.
