How much does AEO, GEO and SEO work cost?
A CiteAngle audit starts at $399. Radar reads 5 buyer questions across AI search and AI answers; Compass reads 20 for $1,199. Panorama, the flagship, reads 50 across all 20 places an answer can name you, for $2,599. The 4-week Refit Sprint that acts on what it found is $15,900. Start improvement work within 30 days of an audit and the audit fee comes off your first invoice. Social and ad operations are quoted to scope. Until the measurement starts the whole fee is refundable, and after that the refund policy shows the arithmetic.
Your first 30 days
01 · The problem
Your buyers decide before you see a visit
AI answers and search results build the shortlist before anyone clicks. When your brand is missing from that shortlist, the visit that never happened leaves no trace in your analytics.
That blind spot is what every price on this page reads. Each run reads your competitors beside your brand on one sealed protocol, and the cheapest tier asks fewer questions of that same method.
One Panorama asks 50 questions of 21 engines, 7 times each — 7,350 cells in all, read across the 20 places an answer can show your brand.
| Competitive edge | You know where you stand against the rivals you name. |
|---|---|
| Strengths | Measurement, production and delivery sit under one agreement. |
| Differences | Our fee never rides on your budget, and the audit stays yours. |
02 · The fix
Pick your tier — USD list prices
Every price here buys the same evidence: the sources cited, the competitors named.
Each one is an independent US-dollar list price.
The ladder at a glance — depth per rung
Prices exclude applicable sales tax; list prices are exclusive of sales and use taxes, and your invoice carries any we must collect.
Pay by invoice. Tell us which one and we invoice the same business day — ask here.
What the next rung adds
Radar Step up — Compass +$800. You stop asking whether you show up at all and start seeing where rivals stand beside you, with the technical read attached.
Compass Step up — Panorama +$1,400. Win and loss against rivals by name, a statistics audit, a misinformation check, and a deck that goes straight into the room.
Panorama Step up — Wide Panorama +$1,300. The same reading over a much wider field of rivals, so the whole category fits on one page.
Refit and Category Sprint step up the same way: execution pricing and operating programs carry those lines.

03 · After you buy
We read the same questions again
A program brings the same questions back month after month, so each fix you make shows up as a delta against the run before it.
We watch how often the answers name you and which sources they cite, beside the same numbers for your competitors.

What a read covers
We read a brand nine ways. Five of them carry most of the work, and those are here.
A-01
Competitive read
We count how often your brand and each rival get named on the same question, then hand you the screens you are losing and the order to take them back.
A-02
Citations and reach
Every address an AI cites gets collected, so you can see which sources hold up over time and where your own writing needs to live.
A-03
Search demand
What buyers actually type gets held against the words you use, and the gap comes back as a ranked list of terms you are missing.
A-04
Ad performance
Spend and conversions get reconciled in one ledger, so you know which channel to feed and which creative to stop.
A-05
Funnel
We count the drop at each step from arrival to checkout and name the one stair that leaks most, with the fixes that close it.
Where each price lives
One page per decision. Each row carries that part of the list in full.
