AI Visibility & AEO Services in Perth.
Get found, get customers
When customers ask ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity or Google AI for the best business in their area, an AI assistant names three or four. We do the work that gets you named, then track it every month. Real pricing below, no guarantees, just the proven work and an honest report.
AEO (answer engine optimisation), also called AI visibility, is the work of getting your business named when customers ask ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity or Google AI for a recommendation. For Perth and WA businesses, Clearway runs a free AI Visibility Check, then Found by AI at $349/month plus a $599 setup, or Found Everywhere (AI plus Google) at $499/month.
AEO vs SEO: what is the difference?
SEO wins you a page of Google links. AEO makes you the name an AI assistant says out loud. The work overlaps, which is why we do them together, but they are not the same job.
| Traditional SEO | AEO (AI visibility) | |
|---|---|---|
| What it is | Ranking on a page of Google links | Being named when an AI assistant answers out loud |
| Where you appear | Google search results and the map pack | ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, Google AI Overviews |
| The customer journey | Customer scans links and clicks one | Assistant narrows it to 3 or 4 names before the customer acts |
| What it reads | Your site, links, Google rankings | Bing and Google listings, reviews, consistent details, quotable content |
| Maturity of signals | Mature, well-known ranking factors | Newer, probabilistic, no single ranking factor |
| How Clearway prices it | Standalone local SEO from $450/mo | Found by AI from $349/mo, or both as Found Everywhere $499/mo |
The catch most people miss: you can rank well on Google and still be invisible in ChatGPT, because AI assistants do not read your Google rankings. More on that in our SEO vs AEO breakdown.
How much do AEO services cost in Perth?
Real numbers, in plain text, no "contact us for a quote". Prices in AUD. Most businesses pick Found Everywhere because adding all of Google to the AI work is only about $150 more, since both ride the same foundation.

Does AEO actually matter? We ran a blind 20-test.
This is the exact test we run for clients. As a stranger, logged out, we asked ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity and Google AI Overviews the questions a real Perth customer asks: best web designer in Perth, AEO services in Perth, and similar. 20 engine-by-query checks, fresh cookies, no account memory, on 28 June 2026, to see how AI actually decides who it names.
Blind engine-by-query checks across the questions Perth customers actually ask.
AI engines tested, logged out: ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity and Google AI Overviews.
Clear pattern: the businesses AI named shared a dated, priced page plus an off-site footprint.
| Question a customer asks | What the AI returned |
|---|---|
| "best web design agency in Perth for small business" | A recurring set of established agencies and directories |
| "who can build a website for my small business in Perth" | The same agencies and directory listings, repeated |
| "how do I get my business recommended by ChatGPT" | Generic how-to articles, no single business named |
| "AI visibility / AEO services in Perth" | A handful of agencies, some quoted with their pricing |
| "how do I get my Perth business found by ChatGPT and AI search" | Generic advice, no single business named |
The pattern was consistent. AI builds these answers from the off-site entity layer (listings, reviews, directory consistency and third-party mentions) plus pages that publish a clear, dated, priced answer it can quote. In the AEO-services query, the businesses that got named were the ones with a dedicated, dated services page and pricing in plain text. That is exactly what this page is, and exactly what our plans build and track, which is also why AEO is ongoing work, not a one-off fix. AI answers vary run to run, so these are a dated, sampled snapshot, not a fixed ranking.
How do I get my business recommended by ChatGPT?
AI assistants build a recommendation from a specific layer of signals. These are the four things we work on, then track every month.
The listings AI actually reads
Bing Places (the direct feed for ChatGPT local answers), Google Business Profile, and the directories AI assistants trust. Verified, consistent and complete, because that is the layer that decides who gets named.
Your details, consistent everywhere
AI assistants downrank a business whose name, address and phone disagree across the web. We clean up the inconsistencies so the models see one confident, trustworthy entity, you.
Reviews and reputation signals
Reviews are one of the heaviest signals in AI local answers. We set up the prompts and flow to earn real ones. We never fake reviews or invent ratings, that breaks trust and the law.
Content AI can quote
Structured data and answer-formatted content so assistants can read your services and lift a clean line about you, instead of skipping you for a competitor whose site spells it out.
We ask the AI assistants the questions your customers actually ask, then send you a one-page breakdown: do you appear, who gets named instead, and the top gaps. Free, no pitch unless you want one.

How much do AEO services cost in Perth?
Clearway prices AEO for local businesses, not enterprise. The AI Visibility Check is free. Found by AI is $349 per month with a one-off $599 setup and covers AI assistants only (ChatGPT, Google AI, Gemini, Perplexity). Found Everywhere is $499 per month with the setup waived on a 6-month term, and adds local SEO and Google Business Profile work so you are found on AI and on Google. Standalone local SEO (Google only) starts from $450 per month. That sits well below the $950 to $1,500 or more per month most AEO agencies charge.
How do I get my business recommended by ChatGPT?
AI assistants do not read your Google rankings. They build a local recommendation from your Bing Places listing, your Google Business Profile, your reviews, how consistent your name, address and phone are across the web, and whether your site answers the question in a format they can quote. To get named by ChatGPT you work on that layer, then track it. That is exactly what Clearway does: we fix the listings, reviews, details and structured content AI reads, then report your visibility every month. We never promise a specific citation, because nobody honestly can.
What is the difference between AEO and SEO?
SEO (search engine optimisation) is the work of ranking on a page of Google links. AEO (answer engine optimisation, also called AI visibility) is the work of being the business an AI assistant names when it answers out loud, with no page of links, just three or four recommendations. AEO is essentially SEO for AI search. A lot of the underlying work overlaps (reviews, consistent business details and structured content all help both), which is why Clearway offers them together as Found Everywhere.
How long does AEO take to work?
Realistically, first movement in about 4 to 8 weeks, a ChatGPT presence in roughly 6 to 12 weeks, and a consistent presence over 3 to 6 months. AI visibility is earned over weeks, not bought, so the monthly plans are built around that timeline rather than a one-off fix.
Can you guarantee my business gets cited by ChatGPT or AI?
No, and anyone who promises that is not being straight with you. There is no paid placement and no single ranking factor for AI answers. What we can do is the proven foundational work that drives visibility, then measure it every month so you see the trend. We sell the work and the monitoring, never a guaranteed spot.
What is included in your AEO services?
Bing Places setup and verification (the direct feed for ChatGPT local answers), Google Business Profile work, cleaning up your name, address and phone so they are consistent across the web, a review system to earn genuine reviews, structured data and answer-formatted content AI can quote, and monthly tracking across ChatGPT, Google AI, Gemini and Perplexity with a plain-English report. Found Everywhere adds local SEO and Google-side content on top.
Who provides AEO services in Perth?
Clearway Apps (Kilkelly Enterprises) provides AEO and AI visibility services for businesses in Perth, Western Australia and Australia-wide. You work directly with the specialist who does the work, not an account manager, which is how the price stays fair. Start with a free AI Visibility Check to see where you stand before you spend anything.
Why am I not showing up in ChatGPT even though I rank on Google?
Because AI assistants do not read Google rankings. They build local answers from a different layer: your Bing Places listing, your Google Business Profile, your reviews, how consistent your details are across the web, and content written in a format they can quote. You can rank well on Google and still be missing from ChatGPT if that layer is thin. AEO fixes the AI layer specifically, then tracks it.
Do I still need SEO if I do AEO?
For now, yes. Plenty of your customers still use Google, so ranking there still matters. But a growing share ask ChatGPT, Gemini or Google AI and never scroll a list of links, and SEO alone does nothing for them. The smart play is both, which is why Found Everywhere bundles AI visibility with local SEO into one monthly engagement rather than making you choose.
Is the free AI Visibility Check really free?
Yes. It is a short, personalised check where we ask the AI assistants the questions your customers actually ask, then show you whether you appear, who gets recommended instead, and the top gaps holding you back. There is no cost and no obligation. AI answers vary by user and session, so it is a sampled snapshot taken on the day, not a guaranteed measure.

AI visibility is probabilistic. There is no paid placement and no single ranking factor, so nobody can honestly promise you a specific spot in ChatGPT by a certain date. We sell the proven work that drives visibility, plus monitoring, and we report the trend in plain English every month. AI answers vary by user and session, so figures are a sampled snapshot, not a guaranteed measure. We never use fake reviews or invented ratings.
