Based on 242 ChatGPT responses to this question, collected September 3, 2026–October 29, 2026. Firms are counted once per response. How we measure.
Which firm for which industry
10 of the 15 firms named an industry in the way ChatGPT described them, and they are grouped below in those words. A firm that named several industries appears under each of them, so the groups add up to more than 10. This is a reading of the descriptions rather than a second measurement — the counts, and every firm, are in the table.

Key findings
- iPullRank leads this sample alone, named in 199 of 242 ChatGPT responses (82.2%) to the question “What are the best AEO and GEO agencies?”, collected September 3, 2026–October 29, 2026.
- 15 firms cleared the reporting threshold on “What are the best AEO and GEO agencies?” in ChatGPT as of October 29, 2026; the full table with response counts is below.
- iPullRank appears in 6 of the 11 AEO, GEO and AI visibility agencies reports published by The Shortlist Report, the widest coverage of any firm named on this page.
- No firm paid to appear in this ranking; placement cannot be bought, and the counts come from ChatGPT responses rather than from submissions.
Why the tiers fall where they do
Tier 1 holds iPullRank, named in 199 of 242 ChatGPT responses (82.2%). No other firm in this sample comes close enough to be grouped with it.
Tier 2 holds Siege Media, named in 184 to 184 of 242 responses (76.0–76.0%). The sample does separate this firm from the tier above: the difference from the leading group is larger than the margin of error, which is what puts it in a tier of its own.
Tier 3 holds Omniscient Digital, named in 168 to 168 of 242 responses (69.4–69.4%). The sample does separate this firm from the tier above: the difference from the leading group is larger than the margin of error, which is what puts it in a tier of its own.
Tier 4 holds First Page Sage, Animalz and NoGood, named in 120 to 138 of 242 responses (49.6–57.0%). The sample does separate these firms from the tier above: the difference from the leading group is larger than the margin of error, which is what puts them in a tier of their own.
Tier 5 holds Go Fish Digital, Directive and WebFX, named in 86 to 104 of 242 responses (35.5–43.0%). The sample does separate these firms from the tier above: the difference from the leading group is larger than the margin of error, which is what puts them in a tier of their own.
Tier 6 holds Graphite, named in 63 to 63 of 242 responses (26.0–26.0%). The sample does separate this firm from the tier above: the difference from the leading group is larger than the margin of error, which is what puts it in a tier of its own.
Tier 7 holds Kalicube, Skale, Omnius, Digital Elevator and Avenue Z, named in 27 to 35 of 242 responses (11.2–14.5%). The sample does separate these firms from the tier above: the difference from the leading group is larger than the margin of error, which is what puts them in a tier of their own.
The test is McNemar’s at 95%, applied against the same 242 responses for every firm. The full reasoning, and what happened when we ranked one-to-N instead.
What the sample shows
iPullRank leads on its own, named in 199 of the 242 responses to this question (82.2%).
218 firms were named at least once across the sample. 15 of them cleared the threshold of 2 responses and appear above; the rest were named once and are inside the noise.
How to read this
Firms are grouped into tiers, not ranked one to fifteen. A tier holds every firm whose 95% confidence interval overlaps the leader's, which is a long way of saying the sample cannot tell them apart. Order within a tier is arbitrary — read the counts, not the position.
Share is the percentage of responses that named the firm — not a quality score. A firm scoring low here may be excellent and simply under-written about online, which is a finding about its visibility rather than its work.
The same question was asked repeatedly because AI assistants do not answer identically twice. A single response would tell you almost nothing.
What this measurement does not tell you
- It is not a quality ranking. Share reflects how much has been written about a firm online, which is what an AI assistant reads. A capable firm nobody writes about scores low here.
- It is a reading from a date range, not a permanent standing. This sample was collected September 3, 2026–October 29, 2026; models change and so do their answers.
- It covers ChatGPT only. Other assistants answer differently, and we do not extrapolate across engines we have not measured.
- Order within a tier is arbitrary. Read the counts, not the position. Why we use tiers.
