Overview

Asky is an AI Search Optimization platform that helps brands measure, understand, and improve their visibility in AI-generated answers.

As AI assistants increasingly replace traditional search as the starting point for discovery, brands need to appear accurately, prominently, and positively when AI search engines recommend products, services, and solutions. Asky gives you the tools to monitor how AI talks about your brand, see the sources it relies on, and improve your content over time.

What Is AI Search Optimization?

Traditional SEO focuses on ranking websites in search engine results.

AI Search Optimization (AISO) focuses on getting your brand to appear within AI-generated answers. It is also called Generative Engine Optimization (GEO) or AI visibility optimization, as the industry settles on common terminology.

When users ask AI search engines questions such as:

  • “What’s the best project management tool?”
  • “Compare CRM platforms for startups.”
  • “Which HR software is best for growing companies?”

Whether your brand appears, and how it is described, directly shapes discoverability, credibility, and purchasing decisions. Increasingly, people trust the AI’s answer instead of clicking through ten links, which makes being named in that answer as important as ranking on Google.

The Shift from SEO to AI Visibility

Search is moving from link-based discovery to answer-based discovery. Traditional SEO optimizes pages for rankings. AI Search Optimization works to make your brand part of the generated answer itself.

Traditional SEO

Link-based discovery


Rank for keywords
Optimize meta tags
Build backlinks
Track SERP positions
Focus on Google

AI Search Optimization

Answer-based discovery


Appear in AI responses
Optimize for citations
Build AI training presence
Track AI mention frequency
Focus on ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, Google AI

Instead of asking “Where does my page rank?”, companies now ask “Does the AI mention my brand when users ask relevant questions?”
