Answer-Engine Optimization
Is your business machine-readable so AI answer engines can quote you?
AEO is about being structured, verifiable and quotable. Google’s AI Overviews, ChatGPT and others lift structured facts straight from your markup. No schema means you’re invisible to them.

- SpeakableSpecification for voice answers
