What is AEO (Answer Engine Optimization)?

AEO, or Answer Engine Optimization, is the practice of structuring content so answer engines can extract a clean, correct answer from it and cite it.

AEO overlaps heavily with GEO. It focuses on the on-page side: answer-first writing, self-contained sections, clear headings phrased as questions, and structured data.

The core AEO move is to put the direct answer in the first sentence of a page or section, because AI engines extract chunks rather than whole pages.

Discoverable audits pages for AEO readiness and generates content in an answer-first structure by default.
