A generative engine optimization agency changes what AI assistants say by changing what they read. ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity and Google’s AI features build answers from two places: the pages they retrieve and cite at the moment of the question, and structured facts about people and organizations held in sources such as Wikidata, Wikipedia and Google’s Knowledge Graph. Reputation outcomes depend on both.
Most GEO agency marketing is about winning product recommendations. This list looks at GEO for reputation instead: agencies that can get accurate, authoritative pages cited, clean up entity data so the basic facts about you are right, and then measure whether the answers actually changed. That is a narrower test, and it rules out firms that only offer content volume. If you mainly need a dashboard showing what each model says, our list of AI reputation management companies covers monitoring platforms in more depth.
We checked each generative engine optimization agency’s own site in October 2026 for current services, named leadership or a registered entity, and any published pricing. Results figures quoted below are the agencies’ own claims.

Erase Technologies, LLC has worked in reputation management since 2009, with offices in Miami and Burlington, Ontario. It is not a GEO agency in the usual sense: it does not sell entity optimization, schema work or AI answer tracking. When we reviewed its reputation management, approach and blog pages in October 2026, the only AI reference was a short section on the reputation management page saying that ChatGPT, Google AI Overviews, Perplexity and Gemini now answer what Google used to, and that Erase suppresses and shapes what those systems say.
It belongs on a GEO for reputation list because of where it works in the chain. Generative engines cite pages that rank and that other sources repeat. If the pages being cited are a defamatory blog post, a mugshot, a complaint-site thread or a cluster of fake reviews, optimization alone has to compete with them indefinitely. Removing or suppressing those sources is the upstream step that makes the rest of the GEO work hold.
Erase’s process is Audit, Remove, Suppress and Monitor. It files policy-violation takedowns directly with platforms, including Google, Indeed, Glassdoor, Trustpilot and more than 15 other review sites, and removes search results, news articles, court records, mugshots, gripe-site posts and personal information. It then builds authority content to push remaining negatives down and monitors search results. Erase reports more than 10,000 clients and more than 100,000 reviews and URLs removed. Clients pay when results are delivered. The limitation is that you will want a separate measurement tool to track how AI answers move after the cleanup.
Best for: Clients who need negative source pages gone before investing in citation and entity work.
Guaranteed Removals is the removal-only brand of Erase Technologies, LLC, the company that also runs Erase, with offices in Miami and Burlington, Ontario. It deletes content at the source rather than pushing it down, and it does not sell suppression. Clients are billed only after a link is removed and verified gone, with no retainer or upfront fee.
It is not a GEO agency. It belongs on this list for the removal step: when an AI answer repeats a defamatory or outdated page, deleting that page at the source takes it out of the pool of citations. It does no entity work, schema, Wikidata or content creation, which is the core of GEO.
Its removals carry a lifetime guarantee: if a removed link reappears on the same URL, the firm says it removes it again free, and refunds that removal if the second attempt fails. Guaranteed Removals reports more than 15,000 clients, 20,000 reviews removed and 100,000 links deleted; those are the company’s own figures.
Best for: Removing negative pages that AI answers cite.
Kalicube was founded by Jason Barnard, its CEO, and works with a remote team it calls digital brand engineers. Its method, the Kalicube Process, starts from the idea that search engines and AI assistants need a clear, consistent understanding of who an entity is before they will describe it confidently. The work covers Brand SERP optimization (what appears when someone searches your name), Google Knowledge Panel management and generative engine optimization for assistants such as ChatGPT.
For reputation, entity clarity is the first fix. When an assistant confuses you with someone of the same name, attributes an old role, or fills gaps with a negative article, the cause is often thin or contradictory entity data. Kalicube builds a single authoritative description, usually anchored on your own site, and works to get the same facts repeated by trusted third parties.
Kalicube runs its own data platform, Kalicube Pro, and offers a free AI audit that it says checks nine platforms in about ten minutes. Service pricing is quote-based, with done-with-you programs and one-to-one consulting. The limitation is that entity work is slow by design; it corrects how you are described over months rather than removing a specific hostile page.
Best for: Individuals and companies whose AI answers are wrong, thin or confused about basic identity facts.
iPullRank was founded by Michael King and is based in New York. It describes its approach as relevance engineering: understanding how AI models identify and select information, then structuring content so it is selected. Its GEO programs cover strategy, content, technical optimization and measurement.
The measurement side is why it ranks high here. iPullRank’s GEO service tracks fan-out coverage (whether your content answers the sub-questions an AI system generates from one query), citation frequency and competitive benchmarking across AI platforms. For a reputation project, that lets you set a baseline for how often a negative source is cited for your brand questions and show whether new content displaces it.
Engagements are project-based or program-based rather than billed by the hour, and pricing is set after discovery. iPullRank reports more than $5 billion in client results. The limitation is fit: it is a technical search agency built for large organizations, and it does not handle removals or legal takedowns.
Best for: Large brands that want an analytical GEO agency with clear before-and-after measurement.
Beutler Ink was founded in 2010 by William Beutler, a writer and Wikipedia editor, and operates as Beutler Enterprises, Inc. with a fully remote team. Its core service is Wikipedia: creating, expanding and correcting pages while following Wikipedia’s content guidelines and its rules for paid contributors, plus monitoring pages for vandalism and advising during corporate events or crises.
Its entity work extends to Wikidata, where it aims to keep an organization’s entries accurate, complete and properly sourced. Wikidata feeds Google Knowledge Panels and voice assistants and helps ground AI systems in fact, so errors there spread quickly. Beutler Ink also runs AI audits that assess how ChatGPT, Gemini and Google’s AI Overviews describe an organization, looking at accuracy, tone and sourcing.
Pricing is quote-based. Beutler Ink says it works with more than thirty Fortune 500 companies. The limitation is that Wikipedia work must go through the community’s own process, so outcomes are never guaranteed, and the firm does not do removals or suppression.
Best for: Large organizations whose AI answers repeat errors from Wikipedia or Wikidata.
Omniscient Digital is a content and organic growth agency with offices in Austin, New York, San Francisco, Chicago and Boston; Alex Birkett is a co-founder. It works as a generative engine optimization agency, aiming to get clients to appear in AI search and LLM outputs.
Its view is that brand mentions across multiple credible platforms now matter more to AI visibility than traditional link building, and it builds programs around subject-matter content and earned coverage. Omniscient reports case studies such as one client becoming the most visible brand in its category in AI search after an 88 percent visibility gain, and another growing AI citations 140 percent in 60 days.
Full-service engagements start at $10,000 a month. The limitation is that Omniscient is oriented to B2B growth rather than crisis work, so a reputation problem driven by one negative article is not its typical case.
Avenue Z is a PR and performance agency with offices in New York, Miami and Orlando. Its AI Search Optimization practice, led in part by Chief Strategy Officer Whitney Hart, is built around the line it uses on its own homepage: PR that powers media and AI search.
For reputation, the PR angle is the point. AI engines lean on reputable media coverage and expert sources when they describe an organization. Avenue Z combines earned media placements and expert endorsements with structured data, FAQ schema and site architecture so that the trusted coverage is easy for AI systems to find and attribute. Its corporate communications team can also handle the messaging side of a reputation issue.
Pricing is quote-based. The limitation is that Avenue Z does not publish a specific measurement framework for AI answer change on its site, so ask how results will be tracked before you sign.
NoGood, legally Berma LLC doing business as NoGood, was founded by CEO Mostafa ElBermawy and has offices in New York, Miami and Dubai. It offers answer engine optimization for ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity and Google AI Overviews alongside traditional SEO.
Its measurement runs through Goodie AI, an answer engine optimization platform that tracks how brands appear across ChatGPT, Gemini and Perplexity. Having the tracking and the agency under one roof shortens the loop between publishing new material and seeing whether the answers change.
NoGood structures work as monthly retainers and says average retainers start above $20,000 a month. The limitation is budget: that level suits funded growth companies, not individuals or small firms with a single reputation problem.
Victorious is a search agency founded in 2013 and led by CEO Michael Transon, with offices across US cities including San Francisco, New York and Austin. Its answer engine optimization service targets Google AI Overviews and LLM-generated answers in ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, Copilot and Claude, with a focus on improving how retrievable your content is.
For reputation, Victorious is a fit when the problem is that your own accurate pages are not being picked up. Its technical and content work makes owned pages easier for AI systems to retrieve and quote, which gives them a better chance of displacing weaker third-party sources.
Victorious recommends budgeting at least $6,000 a month and committing to a 12-month campaign for SEO. The limitation is that it does not list reputation management as a service, so negative third-party content needs another partner.
Single Grain is a digital marketing agency whose founder is Eric Siu, and it markets itself in part as a generative engine optimization agency. It offers AEO and GEO services aimed at getting brands cited in answers from ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, Claude and Copilot, and pitches a broader search everywhere optimization program across AI and traditional channels.
Single Grain reports results in terms of AI citations and AI Overview capture; one client it profiles gained more than 400 AI citations. For reputation work, that citation focus is useful if your aim is to put more of your own accurate material into the answers.
Pricing is quote-based. The limitation is that Single Grain’s GEO work is aimed at growth marketing, and it does not describe entity data cleanup or removal of negative content.
Any GEO agency should begin with a source audit: which pages and which entity records the models use when they answer questions about you. If the agency cannot produce that list for your name or brand, it cannot tell you what to change.
Wikidata, Wikipedia, Knowledge Panels and schema markup shape the facts AI systems state with confidence. Kalicube and Beutler Ink specialize here; content-led agencies often do not. For GEO for reputation, ask specifically who will handle entity records and how they follow each platform’s rules.
Agree on a fixed prompt set before work starts, run it repeatedly to set a baseline, and track mention rate, sentiment and the cited URLs over time. Ask which tool the agency uses and whether you get access to the raw data.
Optimization competes with a negative page; it does not delete it. If the source is defamatory, a court record or a policy-violating review, pair your GEO agency with a removal firm. Defamation, court records and expungement questions belong with a licensed attorney.
Retainers on this list run from quote-based consulting to more than $20,000 a month. A founder with one inaccurate AI answer does not need an enterprise program. Match the scope to the number of prompts and engines that actually matter to your audience.
Generative engine optimization for reputation rests on three things: the pages AI systems cite, the entity data they treat as fact, and evidence that the answers changed. Erase sits upstream of all of them, removing or suppressing the negative sources that would otherwise keep being cited.
Whichever generative engine optimization agency you choose, insist on a baseline prompt set and access to the cited-source data.
