GEO + SEO · with editorial guardrails

Be the page ChatGPT actually cites.
Without writing a page.

Vergrank is the generative-engine optimization platform: it researches the questions buyers ask ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, and Claude — then writes, ships, and refreshes pages on your domain so AI models cite you as the source. Eight archetypes, full SEO, quality gates before publish, all visible in one portal.

  • Indexed by 4 major LLMs
  • Ships to your domain
  • Cancel anytime

Four jobs the engine does for you — on every AI surface.

You don\'t pick prompts or write briefs. You set the strategy. Vergrank does the rest.

Research

We find the questions buyers ask AI engines — not just keywords. Real prompts, clustered into pages worth being cited for.

Draft

Pages are written by archetype (comparison, alternatives, how-to, glossary, listicle, integration, persona, free-tool) and structured for LLMs to parse, quote, and attribute.

Publish

Static, fast, on your own subdomain. Sitemap, schema, canonical, and the structured-data hooks ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, and Claude actually use.

Refresh

We watch citations across four AI engines and Google daily. Pages that slip get queued for refresh — automatically, with a transparent rule before any LLM call.

Who it\'s for

Three audiences. One engine.

Vergrank fits anyone who needs to show up in AI answers and search results without managing the workflow.

Founder

You're the marketing team.

You don't have a content lead. You don't want one. Vergrank handles the research, drafts, schema, and refreshes — you ship product instead.

Head of Growth

You have a backlog you'll never finish.

Three hundred prompts and keywords on a sheet, no time to brief writers. Vergrank turns the sheet into live pages — citation-ready and SEO-ready — on your domain in a week. You review, not write.

Agency

You bill on output, not effort.

You service 12 clients. Vergrank gives each one a dedicated engine with their voice, their domain, and their schedule — you stay editorial, not operational.

How it works

Three things you do. Everything else, the engine handles in the background.

  1. 01

    Hand us your truth files

    Product capabilities, pricing tiers, hard limits, known weaknesses, named competitors with their pricing pages, and ≥5,000 words of writing in your voice. A real intake — plan ~30 minutes to do it properly. The engine will not publish until these are populated.

  2. 02

    We research, draft, and publish

    Inside the first week, the engine ships your first batch of pages — grounded in your truth files, written for the prompts buyers ask AI engines, SEO + structured-data optimised, and deployed to your subdomain.

  3. 03

    We watch citations + rank, then refresh

    Every page is tracked daily across ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, Claude, and Google. When citation count drops or rank slips past your tier's threshold, the page is queued for refresh and you get a weekly digest.

Input discipline —

The four files we refuse to publish without.

Generic LLM output is the failure mode of every other tool in this category. We solve it by holding your proprietary inputs up-front and treating them as the bar — not as suggestions.

Product truth

Capabilities, pricing tiers, hard limits, known weaknesses, integrations. The fact-checker runs every claim against this. If your product can't do it, no page will say it can.

Competitor truth

You name them, we scrape pricing and features via headless browser, you confirm. Re-verified every 60 days. Pages that compare against stale data get blocked.

Voice corpus

5,000+ words of your real writing — blog posts, docs, transcripts. Pasted or URL-ingested. The voice-purger and editor pass score every draft against it.

Off-limits list

Topics you won't touch, claims you won't make, competitors you won't name, framings you won't endorse. We honour all four.

Existing clients get a 30-day grace window to populate them. New clients give us these in the wizard, or they don't get an account.

The engine, running

Six AI agents.
Working on AI visibility + search growth around the clock.

Not a single prompt. A whole engine of specialised models, each with a job, a cadence, and a transparent rule before it acts. This is what you see in the portal — and what's running while you sleep.

The shift

Buyers stopped opening Google.
They opened ChatGPT.

Generative engines — ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, Claude — now answer questions buyers used to type into a search bar. Being "in the top three results" doesn't matter if nobody scrolls. Being the source the model cites does. That's GEO.

  • 800M+ weekly active ChatGPT users OpenAI · 2025
  • 1 in 3 searches by US adults now start in an AI tool industry surveys · 2025
  • 25% projected drop in traditional search volume Gartner · by 2026
  • 60% of Gen Z prefer AI assistants over Google consumer surveys · 2025
The outcome

Watch your page
become the first answer AI gives.

When buyers ask ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, or Claude about your category, the engine teaches your page to be the source it cites. We track every mention, monitor which models index it, and refresh structured data so answers stay current — week one to week twelve, on one prompt.

Eight ways the engine writes

Not one template. Eight.

Every page is generated against the archetype that fits the keyword — with its own outline, voice, layout, and schema. The opposite of one-prompt-fits-all.

Comparison

"Segment vs Rudderstack"

Side-by-side feature tables, real differences, no fluff. The page that wins "X vs Y" search.

Alternatives

"Mailchimp alternatives"

A real list, in priority order, with why-this-one-instead reasoning per entry.

How-to

"How to set up SSO in Notion"

Step-by-step with screenshots and exact UI labels. The page that ranks for the long tail.

Glossary

"What is reverse ETL?"

Plain-English definitions with a deeper "why this matters" follow-up.

Listicle

"Best CRMs for agencies"

Ranked lists with consistent criteria across every entry. Reads like an editor wrote it.

Integration

"Stripe + HubSpot integration"

The page someone searches when they're evaluating whether two tools play well together.

Persona

"CRM for solo founders"

Buying guides written for one specific buyer, not a generic audience.

Free tool

"SaaS pricing calculator"

A working tool embedded in the page. Picks up backlinks, ranks on intent, captures email.

The unfair part —

The engine refuses to publish without your proprietary inputs.

Most "AI SEO" and GEO tools publish generic LLM output and let you clean up later. Vergrank holds your truth files — capabilities, pricing, hard limits, known weaknesses, competitor facts, and a 5,000-word voice corpus — and uses them as the bar. Pages that can't ground every claim in your data don't get queued for publish; they get blocked before the first LLM call. Which is also why the models cite them.

  • 5,000 words of voice corpus, minimum
  • 60d competitor facts re-verified
  • 8 page archetypes, never one template

Common questions

What is GEO and how is it different from SEO?

GEO — generative engine optimization — is the practice of getting cited by AI assistants like ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, and Claude when they answer buyer questions. SEO gets you to the top of Google's blue links; GEO gets you inside the AI answer itself. The two overlap (clean structure, real authority, accurate facts) but they're not the same. Vergrank optimises for both on every page.

How is this different from a generic AI writer?

Generic writers give you one prompt, one template, and a wall of pages that all read the same — pages no AI engine will single out as a source. Vergrank picks one of eight archetypes per page, runs an outliner and a drafter with archetype-specific prompts, attaches the structured data LLMs actually parse, then runs a tell-detector and SEO + GEO audit before publish. The output reads like it was written for the prompt, not stamped from a template.

What kinds of pages does Vergrank write?

Eight archetypes, each with its own layout and prompt: comparison ("X vs Y"), alternatives ("X alternatives"), how-to guides, glossaries, listicles, integration pages, persona pages, and free-tool pages. Every page targets a real search query and ships with full on-page SEO and schema.org structured data.

Can I edit the output before it goes live?

Yes. Every draft is visible in the portal before publish. You can edit copy, flag for rewrite, or push a refresh on demand. The engine never publishes a page you haven’t had a chance to see.

How fast does the first batch ship?

Inside the first week. After you complete the six-step wizard, the engine starts research immediately. The first pages move from draft to review to live without you touching the workflow.

How do you know if my page is being cited by AI engines?

We probe the four major LLMs — ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, Claude — daily with the buyer prompts your pages target. Each probe records whether your page was cited, what position it landed in the source list, and what the model said about you. You see this in the portal alongside your Google rank.

What does cancellation look like?

Cancel from the billing portal in one click. Your published pages stay live until the end of the billing period. Switch tiers up or down anytime — upgrades take effect immediately.
