FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about Apex and AI visibility optimization.
ApexGEO uses GEO (Generative Engine Optimization) and AEO (Answer Engine Optimization) techniques to improve brand visibility in AI-powered search engines like ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini. As more users turn to AI for answers, appearing in AI responses is increasingly critical for brand awareness and traffic.
ApexGEO runs search-mode AI visibility checks weekly by default, with higher-frequency monitoring available as a paid add-on for launches, active campaigns, or reputation-sensitive brands. Real-time alerts fire whenever a brand is mentioned.
ApexGEO supports multi-brand monitoring across all tiers — Free plans include 1 brand, Starter plans include 2 brands, Professional plans include 5 brands, and Enterprise plans offer unlimited brand monitoring. Each brand maintains its own keywords, competitors, and alert settings.
ApexGEO supports content analysis and monitoring in multiple languages including English, Afrikaans, Zulu, Xhosa, Swahili, French, Portuguese, and Arabic, with additional language support added continuously.
ApexGEO analyses a brand's website, content, and AI visibility data to generate prioritised recommendations. Each recommendation includes an impact score, confidence level, and estimated effort — with high-impact, low-effort fixes surfaced first.
ApexGEO integrates with Jira, Trello, Asana, Linear, Slack, Microsoft Teams, WhatsApp Business, Google Analytics, and Google Search Console. Enterprise plans support custom integrations on request.
ApexGEO offers a 14-day free trial on all plans with no credit card required. Full access to all features in the chosen plan tier is available during the trial period.
All ApexGEO prices are shown in USD. At checkout, your invoice is settled in South African Rand (ZAR) at the current exchange rate via Paystack, so you always know what to expect.
