The best LLM SEO agencies in 2026, and what LLM SEO means to each

The market sells the same work under three names, and its published definitions do not agree on what the names mean. Of the ten companies that sell under the LLM SEO or LLMO name, eight also use GEO or AEO for it on their own pages, and none publish a method with a complete question set a buyer can read.

How this list is made

Broadcastwell publishes this list and appears on it, at number one. It is an editorial list scored on criteria a buyer can verify, not a measured ranking. The scoring, the sources and the dates are below.

What the count shows

Key findings

  1. 8 of 10companies selling under the LLM SEO or LLMO name also use GEO or AEO for the same service on their own pages.
  2. 3published definitions of LLMO set side by side below, and they draw the lines in three different places.
  3. 5 of 10publish a price on their own site; none can be paid for without a call.
  4. 0 of 10publish a method with a complete question set a buyer can read.

How this page was scored

The eight criteria every Broadcastwell ranking page uses, read on each company's own site on 17 September 2026, plus one row specific to this page.

Method

Method published, and at least one complete question set public: a study dataset, an index, a public sample or a named case.

Open data

Open data published with a DOI.

Engines

Engine coverage stated by name.

Price

Entry price published and buyable without a call.

Refund

Refund or guarantee terms published.

B2B cases

Named B2B software case studies on the site.

Reviews

Third party reviews, with the count.

Machine readable

The buyer's own AI can read the results, through an account, an export or a connector.

Yes means a reader can verify it on the company's own site. Partial means part of it is published, for example a price that is published but sold only through a call. No means the company's own site does not publish it. Not verified means the cell was not read for this page, and it never counts as a Yes.

The method criterion, defined tightly: Yes means the method is published and at least one complete question set is public, in a study dataset, an index, a public sample or a named case. Partial means a method is described but no question set is public. No means neither.

Reviews come from the shared scorecard, read on Clutch and G2 on 16 September 2026. Companies that are not on the scorecard show Not verified for reviews.

Who is included: a company that uses LLM SEO, LLMO or LLM optimization on its own site, or publishes a definition or list under that wording. The row specific to this page records the exact wording and the page that uses it.

Three names, three published definitions

Each definition paraphrased from the seller's own page, with one short quoted phrase and the link.

Minuttia

How it draws the lines
Treats LLMO, GEO and AEO as three different jobs: LLMO makes a brand understood by AI models, GEO gets it cited in AI search, and AEO gets content selected as the direct answer to a question.
In its words
“ensure AI understands your brand”

Onely

How it draws the lines
Treats AI SEO as the umbrella and the other three as tactics inside it: LLMO for visibility in model responses, GEO for being cited by AI systems, AEO for snippets, voice answers and zero click results.
In its words
“optimizing content to be cited by AI systems”

NP Digital

How it draws the lines
Splits the terms by what the engine does with the content: AEO turns it into a direct answer, GEO makes it a source generative engines surface, LLMO concerns how models understand entities.
In its words
“how large language models understand, interpret, and surface information”
Source
the NP Digital blog post, read 17 September 2026

A fourth reading disagrees with all three. Zupo states on its own page that GEO, AEO, LLMO and AI visibility are used interchangeably and describe the same thing. None of the ten companies publishes a test that would separate the two positions.

What this page does not prove

This page records what each company publishes on its own site on the date beside it. It does not measure the quality of anyone's work, it does not rank outcomes, and a company that publishes less is not necessarily worse at the job. Pages change; a cell is only true for its read date.

The name a company sells under says nothing about the quality of the work. This page shows that the names are used loosely; it does not show that any one definition is right.

Broadcastwell's own limitations

  • Three named clients.
  • One early directional result.
  • No third party reviews yet.
  • Founded 2026.
  • A team of twelve.

Questions

What is LLM SEO?

It is one of three names for work that aims to get a company named in AI generated answers. The other two are GEO, generative engine optimization, and AEO, answer engine optimization. Some sellers use LLMO, large language model optimization. The definitions on this page show that the companies using these names do not agree on where one ends and the next begins.

Is LLM SEO different from GEO?

It depends on who is selling. One published definition treats LLMO as making a brand understood by AI and GEO as getting it cited; another treats both as tactics under AI SEO; a third says the names describe the same thing. Of the ten companies here, eight use GEO or AEO for the same service on their own pages.

How should I compare LLM SEO agencies if the names do not match?

Ignore the name and compare what can be checked: the engines each one reads, whether the method and at least one complete question set are published, the price and whether it can be paid without a call, the refund terms, and whether the results reach your own systems. That is what the eight criteria on this page score.

How many LLM SEO agencies publish a price?

Five of the ten publish a figure on their own site, and none let a buyer pay without a call.

Is Broadcastwell an LLM SEO agency?

It does not use the name. Broadcastwell measures which vendors AI engines name in a category, who is named instead of you and the sources behind those answers, and sells that as AI search visibility work. It is listed first because it publishes this page, and it is scored on the same eight criteria as everyone else.

Whatever the work is called, the question is the same: which buyer questions leave you out, and who is named instead. The $490 Category Audit answers it for one category with receipts.

See where the engines place you

See which buyer questions leave you out, who is named instead of you, the sources visible in those answers, and the three changes worth testing first.
