Published: Launch Day · Reading Time: 8 mins
Generative engine optimization agency pricing ranges from $99 for a one-off AI visibility audit to $3,490 per month for a fully managed GEO campaign. Most agencies do not publish their prices — which makes it almost impossible to compare options or budget accurately before you book a discovery call.
This page is different. Below you will find every price for every GEO service and monthly package we offer, alongside a plain-English breakdown of GEO pricing models, what drives costs up or down, and how to choose the right tier for your goals. No calls required.

How Much Does Generative Engine Optimization Cost?
The short answer: GEO investment starts under $100 and scales to $50,000+ per month at the enterprise end. The wide range reflects genuine differences in scope, not just agency mark-ups.
| Tier | Who It's For | Typical Price Range | What You Get |
|---|---|---|---|
| Entry | Brands testing GEO for the first time | $99 – $499 | One-off audit or research package |
| Project | Brands with specific one-time needs | $250 – $1,550 | Content creation, entity building, link building |
| Monthly — SMB | Growing businesses needing consistent AI visibility | $590 – $1,990/mo | Managed content + entity + reporting |
| Monthly — Full | Agencies and brands scaling AI visibility | $2,000 – $3,500/mo | Full campaign: content, entity, links, optimisation, monitoring |
| Enterprise | Large organisations, multi-market, compliance-heavy | $10,000 – $50,000+/mo | Custom scope, dedicated team, SLA reporting |
The most important number: AI-referred visitors convert at 4.4x the rate of standard organic traffic. Even a $99 GEO audit that uncovers two quick citation wins can return its cost many times over within a single sales cycle.
GEO Agency Pricing Models Compared
Before comparing numbers, it helps to understand the three pricing models GEO agencies use — because the model changes what you're actually buying.
Fixed-Price (Productised) GEO
Each service has a defined deliverable and a published price. You know exactly what you receive, how long it takes, and what it costs before you order. No calls, no scope creep, no surprises. This is the model we use.
Best for: SMBs, marketing agencies reselling GEO, in-house teams who need to move quickly without extended onboarding.
Monthly Retainer GEO
An ongoing relationship where the agency manages your GEO programme end-to-end — typically covering content creation, entity building, authority signals, and monthly reporting. Retainers range from $1,500 to $5,000+/mo depending on volume.
Best for: brands with sustained AI visibility goals and the budget to support a multi-month campaign.
Project-Based GEO
One-off engagements: a GEO audit, a topical map, a batch of GEO-optimised articles. You define the scope, the agency delivers, and the relationship ends. No recurring commitment.
Best for: brands running a first GEO initiative, testing a new agency, or filling a specific gap.
Enterprise GEO
Custom-scoped programmes for organisations with complex requirements — multiple markets, compliance constraints, internal approval workflows, and dedicated account management. Pricing starts around $10,000/mo and scales with scope.
Best for: global brands, regulated industries, and organisations where a fixed-price model does not cover the complexity involved.
What Affects GEO Agency Pricing?
Six factors drive the cost of GEO services up or down. Understanding them helps you compare quotes accurately.
- AI platform coverage. Covering ChatGPT alone costs less than covering all five major AI platforms (ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google AI Overviews, Gemini, and Microsoft Copilot). More platforms means more prompt checking, more content requirements, and broader reporting.
- Content volume. The number of GEO-optimised articles produced per month is the single largest cost driver in any ongoing programme. More content equals faster citation growth — and higher monthly cost.
- Entity building scope. Brand listicles, community mentions, and review placements are labour-intensive to acquire at quality. Agencies that include genuine DR40+ placements charge accordingly.
- Authority signals. Link building campaigns — DR30–60 backlinks via blogger outreach and niche edits — add meaningful cost but compound over time. Skipping links is a common reason early GEO campaigns plateau.
- Reporting depth. A basic monthly PDF report costs less to produce than a real-time citation monitoring dashboard with competitor gap analysis. Know which you are paying for.
- White-label delivery. White-labelling adds minor cost but significantly increases the value for agencies reselling white-label GEO to clients. All of our packages include white-label reports at no additional charge.

Enterprise GEO vs Fixed-Package GEO — A Practical Comparison
Enterprise GEO agencies offer custom scope, dedicated teams, and SLA-backed delivery — but they also require months of onboarding, long contract commitments, and budgets that put them out of reach for most brands. Fixed-price GEO delivers comparable outputs for most businesses at a fraction of the cost and with none of the friction.
| Feature | Enterprise GEO Agency | Fixed-Price GEO (Our Model) |
|---|---|---|
| Starting price | $10,000+/mo | $99 one-off / $590/mo |
| Discovery call required | Yes — typically 2–4 sessions | No — instant order |
| Contract commitment | 6–12 month minimum | None — cancel anytime |
| Onboarding time | 4–8 weeks | 2–5 days |
| Fixed deliverables | Rarely — scope changes quarterly | Always — defined per tier |
| White-label available | Not typically | Yes — all packages |
| Best for | Global brands, regulated industries, $10k+ budgets | SMBs, agencies, in-house teams |
Is GEO Worth the Investment?
The commercial case for GEO investment has strengthened considerably as AI search adoption has accelerated. Several data points are worth keeping in mind when building a business case.
- AI-referred visitors convert at 4.4x the rate of standard organic traffic, according to data from early GEO adopters. A smaller volume of AI referrals can outperform a much larger volume of standard traffic.
- Early citation signals in ChatGPT and Perplexity typically appear within 60–90 days of consistent GEO execution. Durable AI visibility compounds over 3–6 months.
- Most brands have not started GEO yet. First-mover advantage in your category is still available for most niches — and it diminishes as competitors move.
- GEO and SEO are not either/or. Strong domain authority and well-structured content help both. Adding GEO execution to an existing SEO programme is additive, not a replacement.
