When your customers ask an AI to recommend a business like yours — do they name you? We make sure they do. The city that built the first industrial revolution shouldn't sit out the next one.
We do GEO — Generative Engine Optimisation — along with AI SEO, AEO and AI visibility work, for firms across Greater Manchester, Lancashire, Cheshire, Merseyside and the rest of the UK.
We test your visibility across the platforms your customers already ask
Search didn't just change — it moved. Your customers no longer scroll ten blue links. They ask an AI and take the answer it gives. If AI can't clearly understand who you are, what you do and why you're trusted, it recommends someone else. Usually a competitor.
We test how your business shows up across all six major AI platforms — and exactly what they say (or don't say) about you today.
A clear, jargon-free breakdown of where you're visible, where you're invisible, and the specific signals that are letting you down.
We either fix it for you, or hand you a prioritised roadmap. Either way you leave knowing exactly what to do next.
Ranking on page one used to be the whole game. Now the game is being the answer.
When this happens in your sector — and it is happening today — does the assistant say your name, or your competitor's?
It builds a picture of your business from everywhere it can find you. When those sources agree, AI trusts you. When they contradict each other, AI drops you — and most businesses are quietly contradicting themselves without knowing it.
Agreement across these is what earns a recommendation. One contradiction is usually enough to lose it.
These are published, independent figures — not our marketing. The move from links to AI recommendations is already well underway.

We don't chase hacks. We build the durable infrastructure that makes your business legible, credible and quotable to every AI platform.
We make it unmistakable to AI exactly who you are, so you're recognised as a real, distinct business — not a fuzzy guess.
We establish your expertise across the sources AI reads, so you're seen as a credible authority in your field.
Reviews, credentials and consistency that tell AI you're safe to recommend to a real person.
Mentions and references across the wider web that AI treats as third-party proof you exist and matter.
Structured data, schema and machine-readable clarity so AI can parse your business without ambiguity.
The right presence on the right platforms, so AI keeps finding the same consistent story everywhere it looks.
Chasing algorithm hacks is a treadmill. Building digital brand equity — a clear, consistent, credible presence that every AI can trust — is an asset that compounds. It's the difference between renting attention and owning your place in the answer. Manchester didn't build a mill for one season. Build for the decade.
No grand claims on this page. Four pages that set out the work in full — what it is, what moves it, what we can't promise, and what an audit involves.
Generative Engine Optimisation for firms across Greater Manchester and the North West — how an engagement runs, and who it suits.
What Generative Engine Optimisation is, how assistants reach an answer, what appears to work, and the myths worth ignoring.
Where AI SEO overlaps with conventional search, where it parts company, and the technical foundations we check first.
The ten checks, how we choose the prompts, what the report contains — and what it deliberately does not claim.
The two examples below are illustrative. They describe the pattern we see repeatedly and the shape of a typical engagement. They are not quotes from named clients, and the figures are examples rather than measured results. Real client work is covered by confidentiality unless we are given written permission to name it.
Ranking well on Google, never named by any assistant. Root cause was three different versions of the company name across the site, the Google Business Profile and Companies House. Entity work first, structured data second, two pages restructured third.
Invisible to every platform that retrieves live from the web. Product markup was incomplete and the trading name appeared nowhere in the official record. Fixes were unglamorous, specific, and handed over as a roadmap the in-house developer implemented.
AI is forming its recommendations right now. The businesses it learns to trust today become the default tomorrow. This window won't stay open.

Every audit and every fix we make maps to these five layers of AI trust.
Who you are, stated so plainly that no AI can mistake or confuse you for someone else.
Proof that you genuinely know your field, documented where AI actually reads it.
Your content structured so machines grasp not just words, but what you actually mean.
Independent sources across the web agreeing on your story — third-party proof AI trusts.
The same facts, everywhere, every time. The single biggest reason AI drops a business is contradiction.
Agency-grade AI visibility, local price, and someone you can actually meet for a coffee.
We'll test your visibility across all six AI platforms and send you a clear, honest report on where you stand — and what's costing you customers right now.
