AEO services are priced as a flat project fee for the site build plus a monthly retainer for ongoing content and citation work. The exact range scales with vertical competitiveness, number of service pages the site requires, and whether ongoing monitoring across the major AI platforms is part of the engagement. A law firm facing dense AI-answer competition in a major metro will invest more than a boutique service provider in a category with no dedicated AEO presence yet.
We do not sell tiered packages that price-discriminate based on what we think a buyer can pay. Every engagement is scoped to what your specific site and category actually need. Every conversation starts with a free audit, so you see exactly what scope looks like before any numbers change hands. Vague estimates in the first call are how agencies lose trust, and we do not give them.
