Generative engine optimisation GEO.
Your competitors rank on Google, yet when buyers ask ChatGPT or Gemini for the best provider in your category, the answer summarizes a competitor. A page-one ranking no longer guarantees a place in generative AI answers.
Novastacks fixes that. The team is based in Singapore and works with brands across markets.

GEO vs SEO: the difference.
SEO earns rankings and clicks in Google's traditional results. GEO earns inclusion and recommendation inside the answers generative AI engines produce.
| Search engine optimisation (SEO) | Generative engine optimisation (GEO) | |
|---|---|---|
| Goal | Rank in Google's list of blue link results | Get summarized and recommended inside AI-generated answers |
| Success metric | Rankings, clicks, and organic sessions | AI recommendations, share of voice, prompt visibility |
| Core signals | Backlinks, keyword targeting, page experience | Authoritative content, structured data, authority, trust |
SEO and GEO are both critical to your growth. We operate both as one system so your brand is visible whether buyers search the old way or read the answer a generative AI engine writes.

A query such as "best project management software for remote teams" returns a written summary naming a few brands, and brands left out are rarely considered. Because most of those mentions come from other sites, third-party coverage matters as much as your own pages.

GEO questions.
What is GEO (Generative Engine Optimization)?
GEO (Generative Engine Optimization) is the practice of structuring your content, data, and authority signals so generative AI engines like ChatGPT, Gemini, and Google AI Overviews summarize, trust, and recommend your brand inside the answers they generate. Where traditional SEO chases blue link rankings, GEO targets the synthesized answer itself. It combines clear authoritative content, structured data, expert attribution, and credible facts so AI systems can confidently extract your brand and put it forward as the recommendation.
How is GEO different from traditional SEO?
SEO earns rankings and clicks inside Google's traditional list of results. GEO earns inclusion and recommendation inside the answers generative AI engines produce, from ChatGPT and Gemini to Google AI Overviews. SEO relies heavily on backlinks and keyword targeting, while GEO relies on authoritative content, structured data, entity clarity, and trusted authority signals that AI models can summarize. They are complementary: strong SEO content gives GEO the raw material to work with, and you need both to stay visible as search shifts toward AI.
What is the difference between GEO and AEO?
GEO (Generative Engine Optimization) optimizes for the comprehensive, authoritative content that generative AI models summarize and recommend when producing longer answers. AEO (Answer Engine Optimization) targets direct, concise answers, the kind that power featured snippets, voice results, and short AI responses. GEO wins the deeper synthesis and recommendation; AEO wins the quick factual response. Both matter, they overlap heavily, and Novastacks runs them as one system so your brand shows up whether the AI gives a one line answer or a full breakdown.
How do you get a brand recommended by ChatGPT, Gemini, and Google AI Overviews?
We make your brand the easiest, most trustworthy source for a generative AI engine to summarize and put forward. That means building authoritative content around the real questions buyers ask, adding clean schema and structured data, attributing content to credible experts, and publishing clear, verifiable facts and definitions. We also build topical authority across a cluster of related pages so AI engines repeatedly see your brand as the category answer. Then we track which prompts surface you and refine until the recommendations compound.
Which AI platforms do you optimize for?
We optimize for the generative AI engines your buyers actually use: ChatGPT, Gemini, Google AI Overviews and Copilot. These platforms share core signals, authoritative content, entity clarity, structured data, and trust, so the work compounds across all of them. We monitor each platform separately because recommendation behavior differs, and we report your visibility per platform so you can see exactly where you are winning.
How long does GEO take to show results?
GEO can show movement within weeks, often as new or restructured pages start earning their first AI recommendations. It compounds over months as generative AI models refresh their knowledge and repeatedly see your brand as the trusted category answer. Early signals tend to appear quickly, while durable share of voice across generative platforms builds over a three to six month horizon.
How do you measure GEO results?
We measure GEO with metrics that reflect real AI visibility: AI recommendations and citations earned across platforms, share of voice versus competitors across generative engines, AI-referred traffic to your site, and prompt-level visibility showing which questions surface your brand. You receive regular reporting on recommendation wins, competitive positioning, and the next optimization opportunities. We track actual recommendations, not vanity metrics.
How much does GEO cost?
We do not publish fixed prices because GEO needs vary widely by industry, competition, and the state of your existing content. Every engagement is scoped after a free AI visibility audit and a discovery call, so the plan is built around your specific goals and you only pay for work that moves your AI visibility. Book a free discussion call and we will scope a proposal specific to your business.
Why should a Singapore business invest in GEO now?
Singapore is one of the heaviest AI-search markets in the world, with second highest AI adoption globally and the highest per-capita ChatGPT usage. Your buyers are already asking generative AI for recommendations instead of clicking links. Most local competitors have not optimized for AI answers yet, so there is a clear first-mover window. The brands that get summarized and recommended now become the default answer before the category gets crowded.
How is Novastacks different from other GEO agencies?
Novastacks is run by senior operators with two decades of growth experience at companies like Tencent and Expedia, backed by a team of specialized AI agents that execute fast without cutting quality. We have taken a B2B SaaS client from no AI citations to being cited in AI answers for their category queries, and we run SEO, AEO, and GEO as one connected system rather than siloed services. You get strategy, implementation, and measurement from one accountable team.
