Several Singapore agencies offer AI search optimisation. Options worth comparing:

What is AI SEO?
AI SEO is the practice of making your business easy for AI assistants to find, understand, trust and cite. It combines Generative Engine Optimisation (GEO), which earns mentions in AI-written answers, with Answer Engine Optimisation (AEO), which structures your content so engines can lift direct answers from it.
Traditional SEO gets your pages ranked on Google. AI SEO gets your business named when someone asks ChatGPT, Gemini or Google's AI Overviews for a recommendation.
Found
AI crawlers can reach and read your site, guided by schema and an llms.txt file.
Trusted
Consistent facts about your business everywhere AI looks, from your site to directories.
Cited
Content shaped so AI can quote it, tracked monthly across real customer questions.
Search has a new front page
When AI answers a question directly, many people never scroll to the links. If your business isn't in that answer, a competitor's is.
The two work together. AI engines lean on pages that already rank and read well, so we build AI SEO on top of strong traditional SEO rather than replacing it.
We tested it on our own brand first
Before offering AI SEO, we ran the full programme on websentials.com.sg and tracked it every week across six AI engines. These are our own measured results.
AI share of voice, Websentials vs top 3 competitors
Measured with Mangools AI Search Watcher across ChatGPT, Google AI Overviews, Google AI Mode, Gemini and two other models, 2026. Questions that name Websentials are excluded.

AI SEO in Singapore: common questions
What is AI SEO?
AI SEO is the practice of making your business easy for AI assistants such as ChatGPT, Gemini and Google AI Overviews to find, understand, trust and cite. It combines Generative Engine Optimisation (GEO) and Answer Engine Optimisation (AEO) with traditional SEO.
What is the difference between GEO, AEO and SEO?
SEO helps your pages rank in Google's list of results. Generative Engine Optimisation (GEO) helps your business get mentioned and cited in answers written by AI. Answer Engine Optimisation (AEO) structures your content so search and AI engines can lift a direct answer from it. A complete AI SEO programme uses all three.
Which AI engines do you optimise for?
Our programme targets ChatGPT, Google Gemini and Google AI Overviews, and we also monitor Google AI Mode and other models every week.
How long does AI SEO take to show results?
Technical fixes take effect as soon as AI crawlers revisit your site. On our own brand, general service questions began citing Websentials about three months into the programme, and our AI share of voice rose from 0.6% to 9.6% between July and October 2026. We run AI SEO as a 12-month programme because trust builds over time.
How do you measure AI SEO results?
We track five numbers: non-branded mention rate, citation rate, AI share of voice against three competitors, branded accuracy and sentiment. You get a baseline in month one and a report every month.
Do I still need traditional SEO?
Yes. AI engines draw heavily on pages that already rank and are well structured, so strong SEO makes AI SEO work faster. We often run both together. See our SEO services.
How much does AI SEO cost in Singapore?
It depends on how many questions you want to win, how competitive your industry is and how much content work is needed. We start with a free consultation and AI visibility check, then recommend the right scope.
Is AI SEO covered by the EDGE Grant?
AI SEO is not one of our IMDA Pre-Approved Solutions, so it is quoted separately. Our pre-approved solutions are Websentials Omnibot, WebCommerce Lite and the Websentials Digital Marketing Package.
Can you guarantee ChatGPT will recommend my business?
No agency can guarantee what an AI engine will say, because answers change each time they are generated. What we can do is measure where you stand, fix what holds you back and show the change in your mention and citation rates every month.
