What We Do
XLR8 AI helps brands get recommended by AI search engines — ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google AI Mode, Gemini, and Claude. We combine a proprietary GEO platform with hands-on execution from our team of ML engineers. Clients go from invisible in AI answers to consistently cited, with measurable impact on inbound traffic and signups.
One client (Hugo) went from invisible to the most-cited provider on Claude and second only to Wikipedia on ChatGPT and Perplexity within 4 months. Another (JuiceBox) generated 4,500+ new signups within 2 months of engaging us.
