Generative Engine Optimization Agency for Shopify Plus Brands
Be the Brand AI Names When Your Customers Ask What to Buy
Netalico is a generative engine optimization (GEO) agency for Shopify and Shopify Plus brands. A Shopify Plus Premier Partner founded in 2013 with a fully in-house US team, we get your store cited and recommended by ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google AI Overviews, then measure it as AI-influenced revenue.
Most GEO agencies hand you a dashboard and a content writer. We do the catalog, schema, content, and citation engineering by hand, on Shopify, and tie it to your revenue. The software tells you that you have a problem. We fix it.

Three names for the shift from ranking in blue links to being the answer AI gives. Here is what each one means for a Shopify store.
Generative Engine Optimization (GEO)
Getting your store cited and recommended by generative AI engines (ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google AI Overviews and AI Mode, Microsoft Copilot), not just ranked in classic results.
Answer Engine Optimization (AEO)
Structuring your content and data so AI answer engines quote you directly, measured by how often and how prominently you are named, not by keyword rank.
AI-influenced revenue
The revenue AI discovery shapes that your analytics misfiles under Organic Search or Direct. It is typically several times the visible AI line, and it is what we optimize toward.
Is GEO just SEO rebranded? No. AI Mode and Google AI Overviews cite the same URLs only about 14% of the time, and the overlap between top-10 rankings and AI citations has fallen from roughly three-quarters to under 40%. High rankings no longer guarantee AI recommends you, so the citation surface and the measurement genuinely differ.
Our Generative Engine Optimization Method, Done For You
GEO is not a setting you switch on. It is cross-functional engineering across your catalog, your theme, and the publications AI reads. We run all four levers with senior US engineers and our own in-house AI-citation research tool.
Why a Shopify Plus Specialist Beats a Generalist GEO Agency
The GEO work that moves AI recommendations for a store lives inside Shopify: product schema, catalog feeds, Agentic Storefronts eligibility, the crawler allowlist, and the agent-discovery files Shopify ships to every store. A generalist GEO marketer cannot touch any of it, and a horizontal SaaS tool only watches. Netalico is a Shopify Plus Premier Partner with hundreds of builds and a fully in-house US team, so the same engineers who measure your AI visibility ship the fixes and own the outcome.
FAQ
Generative Engine Optimization: Frequently Asked Questions
What does a generative engine optimization (GEO) agency do?
A GEO agency gets your brand cited and recommended by AI engines like ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google AI Overviews. Netalico engineers your catalog, schema, on-site content, and external mentions, measures your visibility across the major engines, and ties the result to AI-influenced revenue.
How is GEO different from SEO?
SEO earns blue-link rankings; GEO earns citations inside AI answers. They have diverged: AI Mode and AI Overviews cite the same URLs only about 14% of the time, and the overlap between top-10 rankings and AI citations has fallen from roughly three-quarters to under 40%. High rankings no longer guarantee AI recommends you.
What is answer engine optimization (AEO)?
AEO is structuring your content and data so AI answer engines quote you directly. It is measured by how often and how prominently your brand is named in answers, not by keyword position. In practice AEO and GEO overlap heavily, and we run them together.
How much does a GEO agency cost?
Netalico starts with a Catalog and GEO Audit credited 100% into your engagement, then an always-on base from about $3,000 a month, then performance pricing on the AI-influenced revenue we add. You pay on the growth, not the promise.
How long until GEO works?
On-site schema and catalog fixes can surface within weeks, while the external-mention and citation-density work compounds over months. Early movers pay less to win the position, because the citation moat is harder to dislodge once it is built.
Do you guarantee my brand will appear in ChatGPT?
No, and anyone who does is selling you something. There is no way to submit a store to or guarantee inclusion in an LLM. Netalico shows you the probed scorecard and a reproducible data set, then engineers the signals that earn the citation.
Can you do GEO for an ecommerce or Shopify store specifically?
Yes, that is our specialty. Netalico is a Shopify Plus Premier Partner, so the GEO work happens where it matters for a store: product schema, catalog feeds, Agentic Storefronts eligibility, the crawler allowlist, and the agent-discovery files Shopify ships.
How do you measure GEO results?
With our in-house AI-citation research tool we baseline a position-weighted visibility score across the major engines, track citation frequency and the sources AI grounds on, and report AI-influenced revenue monthly. You get a scoreboard, not an activity log.
