What is Answer Engine Optimization (AEO)?

Answer Engine Optimization (AEO) is the practice of structuring your content so that AI-powered answer engines recommend and cite your brand in their generated responses. AEO focuses on FAQ schema, JSON-LD structured data, and answer-first content that AI engines can extract and cite.

What is MentionShare?

MentionShare is TrueCite's core metric — the % of AI-generated responses that mention your brand when users ask buyer-intent questions in your category.

MentionShare = (Responses mentioning your brand / Total responses) × 100

Example: 10 scans across 2 engines × 5 prompts = 100 total responses. Brand appeared in 34 → MentionShare = 34%
