Rank4AI is a UK based AI search agency focused on improving visibility and recommendation likelihood across ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Perplexity and Google AI.
This work is sometimes described as AI SEO, GEO or AIO. Our focus is how AI systems interpret, associate, trust and recommend businesses rather than how pages rank in traditional search results.
AI inclusion depends on five structured signal layers: Identity Clarity, Subject Authority, Meaning Architecture, Ecosystem Validation and Signal Consistency. When interpretive variance reduces across these layers, recommendation stability increases.
What We Improve
- •Misclassification across AI systems.
- •Omission from vendor and comparison prompts.
- •Weak extractable answer blocks.
- •Inconsistent ecosystem descriptions.
- •Signal drift across legacy pages.
Observed Platform Weighting Differences
No platform publishes an exact ranking formula. Based on controlled UK testing, weighting differs by platform and prompt intent.
| Platform | Observed Influence |
|---|---|
| ChatGPT | Structured answers and entity familiarity influence inclusion. |
| Google AI | Passage integrity and citation clarity influence extraction. |
| Perplexity | Recency and citation transparency influence source selection. |
| Gemini | Entity associations and knowledge graph alignment influence interpretation. |
| Claude | Narrative consistency and clarity influence summarisation. |
