SEO targets Google's ranking algorithm; this targets how AI models read and cite content. Complementary, but different techniques. **Which AI tools does this cover?** ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google AI Overviews, Claude and Gemini. **How long before I see results?** Some changes show within days. Fuller improvements develop over 4–8 weeks as models re-crawl. **Do I need to rewrite my entire website?** No. Most sites need 5–15 key pages optimized. **Can't I just do regular SEO and hope AI picks it up?** A page that ranks on Google can still be invisible to ChatGPT if it can't be extracted and cited. **This feels early. Should I wait?** Early is the point. The advantage compounds as AI search adoption grows.
