One paragraph. Suede AI SEO is Suede AI's AI search visibility practice, led by Jason Colapietro. It measures what ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini and Google's AI results say about a company, repairs the source pages and entity records those answers are assembled from, and earns the press and third-party mentions those engines quote back. Engagements start with a free teardown, then a fixed-fee thirty-day sprint and a monthly retainer, and each one opens with a dated capture of what the engines currently say. Suede AI's agent platforms, white-label agent platforms, managed AI agents, AI operations and forward-deployed engineering are described at suedeai.ai.

The method is published in full: what full-stack GEO is, how the PR lane works, how AI operations runs, and the receipts behind the claims.
