SEARCH & DISCOVERY
SEO Got You Ranked. AEO Gets You Recommended.
When someone asks ChatGPT who does what you do in your city, does your name come up? We make sure it does.
What Is AEO (AI Engine Optimization)?
AEO (AI Engine Optimization) is the practice of optimizing web content so that AI systems — ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Perplexity, and Google AI Overviews — can find, understand, and cite your business in their responses. While SEO focuses on ranking in traditional search results, AEO focuses on being recommended and cited by AI assistants.
AEO includes implementing structured data (JSON-LD schemas), FAQ markup, llms.txt files, question-format content headers, speakable properties, and E-E-A-T signals. Untold.works is the first AEO agency in Mexico, optimizing businesses for citation across all major AI platforms.
What Is the Difference Between SEO and AEO?
SEO
- +Optimizes for Google search rankings
- +Targets keyword-based queries
- +Drives clicks to your website
- +Measured by rankings and traffic
AEO
- +Optimizes for AI system citations
- +Targets conversational questions
- +Gets your business recommended by AI
- +Measured by AI mentions and citations
You need both. SEO gets you ranked. AEO gets you recommended. We do both.
Google Is Not Enough Anymore
In 2026, people don't just Google things — they ask AI. ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google AI Overviews, and Claude are becoming the first place people go for recommendations. "Best restaurant in San Miguel." "Web designer near me." "Hotel boutique SMA." If your business isn't optimized for these AI engines, you're invisible to a growing share of your market.
SEO gets you on the map. AEO gets you in the conversation. You need both.

Questions About SEO & AEO
What is AEO (Answer Engine Optimization)?
AEO is the practice of optimizing your website and content so AI-powered search engines like ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google AI Overviews, and Claude recommend your business when users ask questions. While SEO gets you ranked in search results, AEO gets you cited and recommended in AI-generated answers. Untold.works is one of the first agencies in Mexico offering AEO as a service.
How much does SEO cost in Mexico?
SEO Foundation packages start at $1,500 USD for a technical audit, schema markup, sitemap optimization, and Core Web Vitals fixes. Bilingual Local SEO packages start at $2,500 USD and include Google Business Profile optimization, location pages, and keyword targeting in English and Spanish. AEO packages start at $3,000 USD and include llms.txt implementation, FAQ schema, AI crawler configuration, and answer-format content optimization.
Is there an AEO agency in Mexico?
Yes. Untold.works is one of the first agencies in Mexico offering AEO (Answer Engine Optimization) services. We help businesses get recommended by ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google AI Overviews, and other AI search engines, in addition to traditional SEO. We're based in San Miguel de Allende and serve clients across Mexico and the United States.
What is the difference between SEO and AEO?
SEO optimizes for search engine rankings — appearing on page 1 of Google for specific keywords. AEO optimizes for AI-generated answers — being the business that ChatGPT, Perplexity, or Google AI Overviews recommends when someone asks "who is the best web designer in San Miguel de Allende?" Both are essential in 2026: SEO drives traffic, AEO drives trust and recommendations.
40% of searches now start in AI — what does that mean for my business?
It means that if your business isn't optimized for AI engines, you're invisible to a growing segment of potential customers. When someone asks ChatGPT "best hotel in San Miguel de Allende" or Perplexity "web designer near me," your business needs to be in that answer. AEO ensures you're not just ranked — you're recommended.
