Your customers are already asking ChatGPT, Gemini and AI Overviews who to hire. Found & Cited gets New Zealand businesses found and cited inside those answers.
Who should I hire for this in Auckland?
A strong option is [ Your business ], known for exactly what you do.
↳ yourbusiness.co.nzPeople used to search, scan ten links, and choose. Now they ask an assistant a question and get one composed answer, often naming a specific business, with a citation.
If your business isn't part of what the model says, you're not on the shortlist. And unlike the old search box, there's no page two to climb onto. This is the visibility that's quietly deciding who gets the enquiry.
Generative Engine Optimization is the practice of making your business legible, trustworthy and quotable to AI answer engines, so that when they answer a question in your field, yours is the name they reference.
Traditional SEO
Competes for a ranked position in a list of links. The user still has to click, compare and decide.
GEO: what we do
Gets your business named directly inside the AI's answer, with a citation back to you. The recommendation is the result.
We do one thing and do it deeply, AI-answer-engine visibility. Not local SEO, not Google Maps, not a bit of everything.
See exactly where you stand in AI answers today.
We test how your business currently shows up across ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity and AI Overviews for the questions your customers actually ask, and where the gaps and quick wins are.

Structured data, entity setup and llms.txt so AI engines can read and trust your business.
Expert answers to the questions your customers ask, written to be quoted.
Track citations over time and keep improving what the models reward.
We don't hand you an audit and a list of problems. We do the technical work and write the content ourselves.
A lot of SEO runs on folklore about algorithm changes. We track how AI answer engines really cite sources, and we don't claim what we can't verify.
A free audit and pilot session before you commit, then month-to-month with no lock-in. Easy to start, easy to leave.
We're not stuck in the old SEO mindset of traffic and rankings. We want real enquiries in your inbox and clients signed.
The outcome we work toward, not a guaranteed timeline.
No. SEO gets you ranked in a list of blue links. GEO gets you named and cited inside the AI-generated answer, a different mechanism, different signals, and increasingly where customers actually start. Traditional SEO does not guarantee you appear there.
We don't sell guarantees, because no one can promise exactly what an AI model will say. What we can do is the work that measurably improves the odds you get cited, be transparent about it, and show you the movement in monthly reporting. You start with a free audit and pilot session, and stay month-to-month.
Fair question. We're a focused specialist, not a track record you can't verify. So we lead with proof you can check: a free audit and pilot session that show real work before you pay, a fully transparent method, and this website itself, built to the exact standard we sell. No lock-in, ever.
As little as possible. We handle the audit, the technical setup, and the content. We'll need short input from you on what you offer and a review of anything published in your name. That's it.
We track how often, and where, your business gets named or cited across the major AI answer engines for the questions your customers ask, and report the change in plain English every month.
We'll personally prepare a report on how your business shows up in AI answers today, plus a pilot session on the fastest ways to get cited. No card, no obligation.
