See the Platform in Action
While Go Fish Digital gives you reports, AEO Engine gives you a full execution platform. Here's what that looks like.
AI Search Tracking Across the Major Answer Engines
Track citations, share of voice, and prompt-level performance across ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, Claude, Copilot, and Google AI experiences from one operating view.
24/7 On-Page SEO Agents
AI agents monitor GSC trends, identify high-confidence fixes, and move approved on-page execution forward instead of leaving recommendations sitting in a dashboard.
AI Content Creation and Direct Publishing
Hermes researches, writes, optimizes, and pushes content into your CMS with strategist review so insights become live pages and articles fast.
Reddit and Quora Brand Seeding
Build authority where AI systems actually learn from public discourse by tracking and scaling community mentions, link placements, and supporting PR motions.
Direct CMS Integrations
Publish into WordPress, Shopify, Webflow, GoHighLevel, and custom stacks without turning every recommendation into a dev backlog ticket.
The Core Difference
Watching the answers does not change them
AEO Engine
AEO Engine tracks and optimizes across the major engines your buyers actually use, and treats AI Overviews as one surface among several.
Go Fish Digital
The semantic query cluster approach in Go Fish's GEO case study is smart work. Buying it requires a sales conversation and a custom proposal with no public price anchor. AEO Engine's methodology and pricing are both on the website.
Accurate measurement, absent execution
AEO Engine
AEO Engine measures the same landscape, then ships the content, fixes, and outreach that change your position in it. The insight becomes action the same week.
Go Fish Digital
Go Fish's headline GEO case study documents optimizing gofishdigital.com, with a 43% AI traffic lift and 83% conversion growth. Respectable, and still a self-experiment. AEO Engine's numbers, Morphsuits +2,035% LLM visibility, Cornish Seaweed, My Rights Law Group, come from paying clients.
Built for practitioners, not for outcomes
AEO Engine
AEO Engine is shaped for a business owner who wants the revenue that follows the visibility.
Go Fish Digital
Clutch pegs Go Fish's most common project at $10K to $49K. AEO Engine's plans run $1,597 to $2,997 a month with the deliverables listed. For a growing brand the difference is not just cost, it is whether you can start this week.

Software Speed, Human Judgment
More than 40 specialized AI agents do the heavy lifting while strategists direct and review the work, which is how you get agency judgment at software speed.
Authority Building in Every Plan
AI systems recommend brands they keep seeing across the open web. Reddit, Quora, guest posting, and LinkedIn distribution come standard in every AEO Engine plan.
