Overview

More of your buyers now ask ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, or Google's AI Overviews who to hire before they ever click a search result. If those tools don't know your business, can't verify what you do, or find a competitor's answer first, you're left out of the conversation entirely. Canned Spinach is an AI SEO agency built on a practical idea: AI tools recommend businesses they can find, understand, and trust. Because we design and build websites for a living, we fix all three at the source, with clean technical foundations, answer-first content, structured data, and consistent facts about your business across the web. The result is visibility in both places your buyers look: the AI answer and the search results underneath it.

Learn more about AI visibility audit

Consistent facts about who you are, what you do, and where you work across your website, Google Business Profile, directories, and the sources AI tools trust.

Pages and FAQs written to answer real buyer questions directly, in the format AI tools quote.

Schema markup for your organization, services, people, and FAQs, so machines can verify facts instead of guessing.

A clean llms.txt file and crawler rules that let AI search tools read the pages you want them to see.

SEO vs. AI SEO: what actually changes

01

The foundation is the same.

AI tools still rely on crawlable pages, clear structure, and trusted sources. Weak SEO means weak AI visibility.

02

The format changes.

AI answers favor direct, quotable answers, verifiable facts, and structured data over long, keyword-stuffed pages.

03

The scoreboard changes.

Success includes being named and cited in AI answers, not only your ranking position, so we measure both.

By working with Canned Spinach, we get access to NYC / LA level talent, conveniently located in our own backyard. The fact that they are based in Cincinnati helped create a more efficient, trustworthy, and relevant working relationship.

Frequently Asked Questions

An AI SEO agency helps your business show up in AI-generated answers, like ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, and Google's AI Overviews, as well as in traditional search results. The work combines classic SEO foundations with structured data, answer-first content, and consistent brand facts across the web, so AI tools can find your business, understand what you do, and trust it enough to recommend you.

SEO (search engine optimization) earns rankings in search results. AEO (answer engine optimization) shapes content so it can be pulled directly into answers, like featured snippets and voice results. GEO (generative engine optimization) focuses on being cited and recommended by AI tools that write their own answers, like ChatGPT and Google's AI Overviews. They overlap heavily, which is why we treat them as one program built on the same foundation.

Canned Spinach SEO and AI search retainers start at $2,000 per month and cover both traditional rankings and AI visibility. Where you land above that depends on how competitive your market is, how much content you need, and how many services or locations you want to be found for. Most engagements start with a free AI visibility snapshot or our $2,000 AI visibility audit, which benchmarks your AI visibility against competitors and ends with prioritized recommendations, followed by a fixed, written scope.

Technical and structured-data fixes can be picked up within weeks, but meaningful, consistent AI visibility usually builds over three to nine months as your content, rankings, and mentions across the web grow. AI tools change how they choose sources often, so we track your visibility monthly and adjust the plan based on what the data shows.

No, and no one honestly can. AI tools decide what to say on their own, and their answers vary by question and by user. What we can do is improve the inputs those tools rely on: a website they can read, facts they can verify, content that answers real questions, and mentions in sources they trust. Then we measure the results and show you exactly what changed.

Possibly not, if your current agency already covers structured data, entity consistency, answer-first content, and AI visibility tracking. Many SEO programs still focus only on rankings and traffic. An AI visibility audit is a fast way to find out: it shows how AI tools describe you today, where competitors are being recommended instead, and which gaps are worth closing.
