About Us

We Make AI RecommendYour Business

The Answer Engine is the leading Answer Engine Optimization agency for local service businesses who want to dominate AI search.

The Problem We Solve

Search is changing. When people ask ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, or Google AI Overviews for recommendations, AI doesn't show a list of 10 blue links. It gives one answer.

If you're not that answer, you're invisible.

The harsh reality:

Most local businesses have spent years building SEO strategies designed for the old Google. But AI engines work differently. They don't rank pages. They cite authorities. And right now, your competitors are probably getting cited instead of you.

Our Mission

Position Local Experts as AI-Cited Authorities

We help local service businesses become the trusted source that AI platforms cite when prospects ask buying questions. Not through tricks or hacks, but through genuine authority positioning.

What Makes Us Different

Territory Protection

We only work with one business per category, per geographic area. Once you claim your spot, competitors are locked out.

90-Day Guarantee

Get cited by at least 2 AI platforms within 90 days, or we work for free until you do. Or take a full refund. Your choice.

Proven in Competition

Our methods work in America's most competitive market: LA County real estate with 70,000+ agents. Your industry has less competition.

AI-First Strategy

We don't retrofit old SEO tactics. Every piece of content is structured specifically for how AI platforms evaluate and cite sources.
