AI Visibility · GEO and AEO for real estate agencies

    Buyers now ask an AI which estate agent to call. Make sure it says yours.

    Buyers in your market now ask ChatGPT, Google, Gemini and Claude who to trust with a purchase, in their own language, and the assistant answers with three or four agencies. If yours is not one of them, that enquiry goes to a competitor and you never hear about it. We find out what the assistants say about you today, then do the work that changes the answer, with your approval on every piece.

    Free AI visibility audit

    See what the assistants say about your agency today.

    Buyers ask in their own language and the assistants answer differently in each one. Pick the one or two languages your buyers use most.

    Free. A few minutes. No account, no card.

    The audit is a snapshot: real assistant answers, sampled the moment you run it. The assistants change their answers from one week to the next, which is why the programme measures every week. Treat the score as your starting point.

    Why this matters now

    The first question now goes to an AI.

    Buyers used to start with Google and a portal. More and more of them now start by asking an AI assistant, and the assistant replies with three or four agency names. If yours is one of them, you get the call. If it is not, the buyer may never find out you exist.

    Illustrative: the agency names are invented.

    GEO, AEO, AI visibility

    Three names for one question.

    The acronyms keep changing. The question behind them does not: when a buyer asks an AI assistant who to call, is your agency in the answer? Everything on this page is about making that answer yes, and about knowing every week whether it still is.

    GEOGenerative engine optimisation

    The work that gets your agency read, trusted and named by the engines behind ChatGPT, Google AI Mode, Gemini and Claude. Most of it happens on the sources those engines read, and on the pages of your own site they can quote.

    AEOAnswer engine optimisation

    Writing your pages so an assistant can lift a direct answer from them: the question a buyer asks, a clear answer, the figures behind it, marked up so a machine can tell which is which. The on-site half of GEO.

    AI visibilityWhat we measure for you

    How often the assistants name your agency when buyers in your market ask, which sources they trust when they do, and whether your own website gives them anything to read. One number a week, per assistant, per language.

    What changes for your agency

    Ranking is no longer enough

    A Google results page has ten links and a buyer can scroll. An AI assistant gives three or four names and stops. Page one used to earn you clicks; outside the handful there is no position at all.

    Buyers ask questions, not keywords

    Nobody types "estate agent Marbella" into ChatGPT. They ask for an agent who knows family homes near international schools, in Dutch or in Swedish. Longer, more specific questions, answered differently in every language.

    Trust is borrowed from the sources the engines read

    The assistants mostly repeat what the pages they trust already say: portals, press, directories, reviews, your Google Business Profile. Your website decides whether you can be read; those sources decide which names come up.

    We treat GEO and AEO as one job with one weekly number. The free audit shows where you stand today; the programme does the work.

    The measurement

    Your AI visibility in three numbers, and exactly what to do about it.

    These are the pages of the report we build for every agency on the programme, refreshed every week. The free audit gives you the first of them today: the three numbers from fifteen buyer questions and searches in up to two languages, the readiness checks and your first moves.

    Every failed check comes with its fix

    Named and specific: unanswered reviews, missing FAQ markup, a Google profile that has gone quiet. Ready for your developer, or done by us where you give us access.

    The pages the assistants trust in your market, and whether you are on them

    Every source the assistants used

    Portals, local press, directories, forums and guides: the pages the assistants leaned on while answering your buyers' questions, ranked by authority.

    Cited for a rival, never for you

    The sources that only come up when a competitor is named are the ones you are missing from. That list is your placement plan.

    Worth more the higher it sits

    Authority scores how many other sites link to a source, from 0 to 100. A listing or a mention on a high-authority page carries much further than one on a weak page.

    The priority plan

    A plan in plain language, ordered by what closes the biggest gap first

    Every move traces back to a page of the report

    No generic checklist. Each move comes from a gap the measurement found: a question where a rival is named, a failed check, a source you are missing from.

    Owners and dates

    On the programme the plan becomes the first month's work queue, with what we do and what your developer does, and when.

    Reviewed with you before anything is published

    Nothing in the plan promises a mention; each move gives one its best chance. You see it, and approve it, before any of it goes live.

    The first three moves

    1

    Answer the 36 buyer questions where a competitor is named and you are not

    A page to publish or deepen for each, in the buyer's own language, briefed from the pages the assistants already cite.

    2

    Close the 6 readiness checks that did not pass

    Starting with your unanswered reviews and the markup on your question pages; fixes for your developer, or done by us with access.

    3

    Earn a presence on the 9 sources the assistants cite for competitors and never for you

    Most authoritative first. A listing, an article or a quote, each with your explicit yes.

    The programme

    Measured every week, done for you.

    The audit tells you where you stand. The programme changes it. The same measurement runs every week, and the work it points at gets done: fixes to your site, content your buyers and the assistants can use, your Google Business Profile kept alive, and a presence on the sources the assistants trust, in the languages your buyers use. Searches like apartments for sale in your town now return actual listings inside assistant answers, so the programme also prepares and marks up the listings you choose, to give them their best chance of being the ones shown.

    1

    Measure

    The same buyer questions every week, in every market and language you sell to, across every assistant in your tier.

    2

    Decide

    What moved and what is missing becomes a ranked to-do list. The biggest gap is always next.

    3

    Draft

    Briefs built from the pages the assistants already cite, drafted in your voice and checked by a person before you see them.

    4

    Approve

    Nothing is published without your yes: one click from a weekly digest, with your edits or your veto.

    5

    Publish

    On your site, on your Google Business Profile and on the outlets the plan chose, in the right language.

    6

    Verify

    A week later we check whether the assistants picked it up and re-measure your mentions, so you see what worked.

    Step 6 feeds step 1: every week starts from what the last week published.

    Every week

    Fresh numbers per market, assistant and question. One approvals digest each Tuesday. Nothing is flagged as a change until it has held for more than a week.

    Every month

    A written review in plain language: what moved and why, what was published, what comes next. Forward it to a colleague as it is.

    Every quarter

    On Authority: an executive review, a co-branded market report for your own marketing, and the quarter's placement targets agreed with you.

    Reports carry the Propelos brand and are yours to share. Unbranded reports are available for multi-office groups.

    The safeguards

    Your name goes on the work, so nothing goes out unchecked.

    Plenty of AI content services publish fast and fix later. Everything below exists because a wrong figure or an invented quote published under your name takes longer to repair than the piece took to write.

    You approve everything, in two steps

    Content for your own website and Google Business Profile arrives in a Tuesday digest, and you have five working days to approve, edit or veto each item with one click. Anything published under your name on someone else's site needs your explicit yes every time, and nothing goes out if you do not answer.

    Verified figures only

    A tax rate, a fee or a market figure reaches a draft only after we have found it at the authority's own source and read it there ourselves. Anything we cannot verify becomes a marked blank for your team to fill, never a guess.

    Nothing invented

    No made-up anecdotes, no invented reviews, no sources we have not read. A draft may only cite pages we actually opened. Where your own experience belongs, the draft leaves a clear space for it.

    Human-reviewed, with no tell-tale AI writing

    Every draft is read by a person and passes a per-language style gate that rejects the vocabulary, rhythms and punctuation that make AI text recognisable. This page went through the same gate.

    Honest numbers, licensed data

    When an assistant fails to answer, the report records a failed call, never your absence. Small samples are labelled as small. Question wording is frozen, so a number that moves reflects the market and never a reworded question. We use licensed APIs and a licensed data provider for the public ChatGPT and Gemini apps; we never scrape logged-in products.

    AI visibility, explained

    Questions estate agents ask about GEO before they start.

    What is GEO, and how is it different from SEO?
    SEO earns your pages a position on Google's results list. GEO, generative engine optimisation, earns your agency a place in the short answer an AI assistant gives when a buyer asks who to call, and a citation among the sources it shows. They overlap, because the assistants read the same web Google does, but they reward different things: an agency can sit on page one of Google and never be named by ChatGPT.
    Is AEO the same as GEO?
    Close enough to treat as one job. AEO, answer engine optimisation, is the on-site part: pages that answer the questions buyers actually ask, figures stated plainly, FAQ and business markup so a machine can tell the question from the answer. GEO adds the off-site part: the portals, press, directories and reviews the assistants trust when they choose names. We measure and work on both.
    Does GEO help my SEO, or compete with it?
    It helps. Almost everything in the programme is also what Google rewards: new pages that answer real buyer questions, press coverage and authority backlinks from the sources the assistants trust, an active Google Business Profile with answered reviews. We measure AI visibility because that is the gap nobody else is measuring for you, and the same work lifts your search presence along the way.
    Which AI assistants matter for property buyers?
    Four, today: ChatGPT, Google AI Mode (inside Google Search, live across the EU since late 2025), Gemini and Claude. Each answers differently, in every language, and each has its own mix of memory and live search. Momentum and Authority track all four every week; Visibility tracks ChatGPT, Google AI Mode and Gemini. The free audit reads the assistants available for public runs and tells you which ones it could not reach.
    Can you guarantee my agency will be named?
    No, and nobody honestly can. The same question asked twice can return different names, and the assistants change their sources without notice. What we stand behind is the method: the same questions asked the same way every week, the work the evidence points at, done properly and approved by you, and a report that says plainly what moved and what did not.
    What do the assistants read before they name an agency?
    Their own memory of the web first, then a live search when the question calls for one. In practice the names come from portals, local press, directories, review sites, published rankings and your Google Business Profile, and only then from your own website. The sources page of your report lists which of those pages the assistants actually used for your market.
    Can my property listings themselves appear in AI answers?
    Increasingly, yes. Searches like apartments for sale in Marbella now return actual property listings inside assistant answers, drawn from the pages and portals the assistants can read. The free audit runs a set of these searches alongside the buyer questions, so your report shows whether your listings are among the ones shown today. On the programme we prepare and mark up the listings you choose, with clean structured data and pages the crawlers can read, to give them their best chance of being picked up. A placement there is never guaranteed, and we say so; any service that promises one is guessing.
    How long until the numbers move?
    Fixes to your site count from the next time the assistants read it, usually days to a few weeks. Content in a language where little exists has been cited within a month of publishing. Placements on other people's sites take longest and last longest, often a quarter or more. None of that is a promise. The weekly measurement shows you which of the three is moving, and the monthly review tells you why.
    Which languages can you work in?
    Any language your buyers ask in. The assistants answer differently per language, and the web they read is thinnest where AI use is highest: Norwegian is about 0.3% of web content while 56% of Norwegians use generative AI; Dutch is 2.2% against 45% (W3Techs and Eurostat, 2025). A good Swedish or Dutch guide competes against a fraction of the material an English answer draws on. The free audit offers eight languages and runs in up to two at once; the programme covers whichever languages your market needs.
    Should we block AI crawlers to protect our listings?
    You can, and it is worth knowing what each one does first. GPTBot, ClaudeBot and Google-Extended decide what the models learn about you over time. OAI-SearchBot, ChatGPT-User, Claude-SearchBot and Claude-User decide what ChatGPT and Claude can read when they answer a buyer today, and Google AI Mode reads through ordinary Googlebot. Block the answer-time crawlers and the portals carrying your listings stay readable, so the buyer still gets an answer, with someone else's name in it. The free audit lists, crawler by crawler, what your robots.txt allows.
    What does my Google Business Profile have to do with ChatGPT?
    More than most agencies expect. The assistants use your local presence when they decide who to trust: categories, review count, whether you reply, how recently you posted. Google's assistants read the profile directly; the others meet it through Maps, review aggregators and the directories that republish it. A profile with unanswered reviews and no posts in three months reads as inactive to a machine, as it does to a buyer. The programme keeps it current and answers the reviews for you.
    Is AI visibility only for large real estate agencies?
    No. The sources the assistants read are mostly editorial and directory pages, and a precise guide in the right language can be named ahead of a bigger firm's generic one. Small agencies usually have the faster path too: one site and one profile are quick to fix, and the first moves show up sooner.

    Find out what the assistants say about you, before your next buyer does.

    The free audit takes a few minutes and shows what the assistants say about your agency today, from fifteen buyer questions and searches in up to two languages. If you want the weekly programme after that, book a call and we walk through your report together.
