GEO Scoring Explained

How Generative Engine Optimization scoring works for ad creatives.

GEO (Generative Engine Optimization) Score is a proprietary metric that measures how well an ad creative is optimized for AI search visibility. Unlike traditional ad quality scores that focus on click-through rates, GEO measures alignment with how AI engines process and recommend information.

Score Ranges

  • 80–100 — Excellent. Ad copy strongly reinforces brand in AI contexts
  • 60–79 — Good. Solid ad with room for improvement
  • 40–59 — Average. Consider revising copy or targeting
  • Below 40 — Weak. Ad may not effectively improve AI visibility

What Affects GEO Score

  • Use of brand-specific vocabulary and terminology
  • Alignment with the target query's intent
  • Inclusion of factual, citation-worthy claims
  • Structured information that AI engines can parse
  • Consistency with your brand voice profile
