Between us, we have more than four decades of marketing, SEO, and growth experience. We have built and scaled brands across forex, technology, sports, and professional services. We have managed seven-figure media budgets, run campaigns that generated hundreds of thousands of leads, and navigated every major shift the search landscape has thrown at marketers in the last twenty years.
When AI search engines started changing how people find information, we did what we always do: we looked for data. Which signals determined whether a brand got cited? What structural changes actually moved the needle? Why could a brand score well on every standard SEO metric and still be completely invisible to ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Gemini?
The tools did not exist. The checkers on the market were surface-level at best: homepage-only, single-metric, no fix instructions. The monitoring tools told you whether you were being cited after the fact but gave you no way to change the outcome. Nobody was building a real diagnostic scanner. Nobody was telling brands what to actually write to earn citations. The gap was obvious. The decision was easy.
Caijo is the answer to the question we kept asking. A real crawler. A 100-point scoring model built on published research into how AI engines decide who to cite. Plain English fix instructions that any marketer can act on. And CiteReady: the first feature in any AEO platform that generates the specific passages brands need to earn AI citations. Powered by the same AI that does the citing.
