(Follow my exact AEO tool stack!)
Ranking in Google is one thing.
Getting cited in AI answers? That’s different.
Because AI tools don’t just crawl - they summarize, extract, and quote.
To show up, you need the right structure and the right tools.
So I put together the exact Chrome extensions we use to:
1. Audit structure
2. Discover AI queries
3. Monitor mentions
4. Optimize for AEO

P.S. Yes, there’s a huge overlap with SEO here. Many (if not all) of these tools work for both SEO and AEO. No need to draw a hard line - by now, we all know AEO builds on solid SEO foundations.
