Help Chinese export enterprises gain higher brand visibility in ChatGPT, Perplexity, and other overseas AI platforms

Definition

What is GEO?

GEO (Generative Engine Optimization) is a brand visibility optimization approach for AI search and Q&A systems. For Chinese export enterprises, the core goal is to help overseas buyers see, understand, and trust your brand in answers from ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google AI Overview, and other AI tools.

Traditional SEO answers whether Google can find you. Export GEO answers whether overseas AI can understand you and recommend you as a Chinese supplier. Domestic AI platforms (DeepSeek, Doubao, Kimi, etc.) can serve as a secondary layer for scenarios such as domestic due diligence and local procurement.
