Run 02 · The Shift

Search used tolist ten links.

Now it writes one answer. Be in it.

Invisible in the answer

Ask an AI for the best app for X and it names a handful. If yours isn't one of them, you never got a shot at the download.

SEO and ASO stop short

Ranking on Google and in the App Store still matters. AI answers lean on other sources, often listicles, reviews, comparison pages and forums. Most app teams never touch that layer.

Nobody builds it for apps

The firms doing AI search work today are built for B2B SaaS, fintech and ecommerce. Consumer apps, where the question gets typed into a phone at 11pm, mostly get left out.

Run 03 · The Search Lab

We built the tracker before the pitch.

The Search Lab asks a fixed set of real buyer prompts to ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity and Gemini with live web search on, three times each, because answers change run to run. Every two weeks. It records which brands each answer names, in what order, and which sites it cites.

01

Prompts

Real buyer questions, typed the way people type them. The set stays fixed, so every run compares to the last.

02

Engines

ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity and Gemini, each with live web search on, the way your buyers use them.

03

Samples

Every prompt runs three times per engine. One answer is an anecdote. Three show you what the engine tends to say.

04

Readout

Which brands each answer named, in what order, and which sites it cited. The work starts from this.

The system behind it

01

Proof before pitch

Every number on this page comes from the tracker. If we haven't measured it, it isn't here. Your engagement runs on the same rule.

02

Pages the engines cite

An AI answer is only as good as the sources it pulls. We build and fix the ones that decide your category, starting with your own pages and the facts the engines hold about your app, so they have something accurate to cite.

03

Operator-run

The founders who run Agniverse Media run GEO too. No account team, no hand-offs. The people who built the Lab read your readout.

Media creates the demand. GEO captures it. See Agniverse Media →

Run 04 · Our Own Baseline

We point it at ourselves first.

Before the Lab tracks anyone else, it tracks us. 50 real buyer prompts from our own category, four engines, three samples each. That's 600 answers a run, every two weeks.

The readout

Where you're named, where you're not, and what moved since the last run.

Run 06 · House Rules

Quiet work. Measured out loud.

AI search is new, and nobody can honestly promise you a spot in it. We run it the way we run Media. The founders do the work, it stays private, and we only take consumer apps.

Proof before pitch

We show you the tracker before we show you a plan. No borrowed case studies, no screenshots of someone else's dashboard.

Private by default

Your prompt set, your readout, your category. Nothing leaves the room unless you ask us to put it on a page like this one.

Consumer apps only

We don't take B2B. We work on the apps people ask an AI to recommend from their phone, and nothing else.

If your name ever appears here, it's because you asked it to.

Run 07 · The Operator

You're not hiring an agency. You're hiring the operators.

I'm An Nayal, founder of Agniverse and Flamme. I run Agniverse with my wife, Lauriane Nayal. Before this I scaled a fitness business to RMB 15M across 7 locations in China, then helped take a German startup from $40M Series B to a $200M Series C as an operator.

I built Flamme from zero to 200K users and 50M+ organic views on a proprietary TikTok system, with zero paid spend, and pulled D30 retention from 0.8% to 50%+.

Agniverse Media is how we create demand on TikTok. Agniverse GEO is how we make sure that demand finds your app when it later asks an AI. Same operators, same rule. We measure first, then do the work.

We built the Search Lab on our own category before we offered it to anyone. Two of our UGC guides reached the top 9 web results for "best UGC agencies for consumer apps 2026" about two months after we shipped them.

We run every GEO account ourselves, with no account team in between. That's why seats are limited.

Run 10 · Questions

Questions.

GEO, generative engine optimization, is the work of getting your brand named and cited inside AI answers: ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, Gemini and Google AI Overviews. When someone asks "what's the best app for X", the answer names a handful of apps. GEO is how you become one of them. We just call it AI search, and we only do it for consumer apps.

SEO gets your site ranked in a list of links. ASO gets your app found inside the App Store and Google Play. AI search reads across the web and writes one answer, naming a few apps and citing the sources it trusted. Those sources are often listicles, reviews, comparison pages and forums, not your homepage. GEO works on that layer. Good SEO and ASO still help. They just aren't the whole job anymore.

With our own tracker, the Search Lab. It asks a fixed set of real buyer prompts to ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity and Gemini with live web search on, three times each because answers vary run to run, and records which brands each answer names, in what order, and which sites it cites. It re-runs every two weeks. Our own set is 50 prompts, which makes 600 answers a run. Each client gets their own prompt set, tracked the same way.

It varies by engine and by category, so we won't give you a date. Here is our one public benchmark. Two of our own UGC guides appeared in the top 9 web results for "best UGC agencies for consumer apps 2026" about two months after we shipped them. On your app, you'll see the readout every two weeks and judge the pace yourself.

No. Agniverse GEO is for consumer apps only, the apps people ask an AI to recommend from their phone. If you sell B2B SaaS, there are AI search firms built for that, and we'll point you to one.

We build a prompt set for your category with you, run it through the Search Lab across ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity and Gemini, and walk you through the readout: where you're named, where you're missing, who gets named instead, and which sites the engines cite when they answer. It's free, by application, because we only run it for apps we think we can help.

Profound and Peec AI are dashboards. They show you how often AI names you and leave the work to you. We run our own tracker for the same reason, and then we do the work. We build the pages, make the technical and entity fixes, and re-run the same prompts to see what moved.

Pricing is by application. The audit is free. The Citation Sprint, the retainer and the Media + GEO pair are scoped on a call to your category and your stage, so there's no public price sheet.

Be the app it names.

Charter seats, by private application.

We review applications within 48 hours. We only take consumer apps with a live product and active users.
