How this rate card is compiled
Every price, term and deliverable on this site comes from the agency's own pages, read on the date shown, or from the directory named beside it. Every quoted post is public, copied word for word and linked.
Which agencies are listed
We start from the agencies AI engines name or cite when buyers ask who to hire for AI search: on November 7, 2026 we put the questions on this site's pages (which AI SEO agency to hire, what an AEO agency costs, agency or software) to ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, Claude and Google's AI Overviews and AI Mode, and noted the agencies the answers named and the agency pages they cited. To those we add agencies whose pages we read that publish a price, a term or a monthly output, because those are the facts a buyer can check before a sales call. An agency appears only if we read its own pages.
How they're ordered
supereo is listed first as our pick; the site is published by supereo, and it's marked "ours" wherever it appears. Agencies follow in order of how much a buyer can verify before talking to sales: a published price, a stated monthly output, a stated term and a described way of measuring results. The order isn't a judgment of the quality of an agency's work, which we haven't tested.
Prices, terms and deliverables
We read each agency's pricing, service and FAQ pages on the date shown under each table and copy the figures as the agency states them. Where an agency publishes no price, the page says "Not published" rather than estimating one. Where an agency names a deliverable, we use its words; "Not listed" means we didn't find it on the pages we read, not that the agency can't do it. When an agency's own research report states its price, as First Page Sage's does, we say that's where the figure comes from.
Directory figures
Minimum project sizes, hourly rates, team sizes and packages from Clutch are labeled as Clutch's figures, read the same day. They're what the directory profile lists; they aren't quotes.
Our arithmetic
Yearly totals, minimum-term costs, price per page and price per tracked question are our arithmetic on the published figures, rounded to the dollar or the cent, and labeled as ours. The worked example on agency or software uses hours per change that are our stated assumptions, priced at the US Bureau of Labor Statistics' 2025 median pay. We don't convert currencies.
Price history
Price changes come from the Internet Archive's captures of agency pricing pages, each linked with its capture date. A change is reported only when two captures show different figures.
Other people's research
Market figures from First Page Sage's October 2026 pricing report and AEO Engine's law-firm Answer Index are quoted as their publishers' figures. Both companies sell AEO or GEO services; we say so where we cite them, and we note where a figure doesn't match its own source.
Quoted posts
Quotes from Reddit and LinkedIn are copied exactly from the public post, dated and linked so you can read the context. Posts by people who say they sell AEO services or monitoring are labeled. Claims disputed in their own thread aren't used. They're individual posts, not reviews, ratings or a survey. A reply under a post appears only where an option on the page answers the concern.
What we don't claim
We didn't hire these agencies and don't claim to have tested their work. We don't publish which agencies AI engines recommend.

Corrections and checks
If a price or term here no longer matches the agency's page, the agency's page is right. We recheck every page at least every two weeks, and a page's date moves only when its figures change.
