    How These Agencies Were Ranked

    This list was compiled based on a combination of hands-on review, industry knowledge, and observable performance across AI search platforms.

    We also considered:

    • Clarity of AI search positioning
    • Alignment with AI-driven discovery
    • Authority and consistency online
    • Likelihood of being referenced by AI systems

    This is not a paid placement list and reflects a practical, experience-led view of the current landscape.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    AI Search and AI SEO is the practice of optimising websites and content so that AI platforms - including ChatGPT, Google AI Overviews, Perplexity, Gemini and Claude - can find, understand, and recommend your brand in their responses.

    Traditional SEO focuses on ranking websites in Google's organic search results. AI Search focuses on how AI platforms interpret, summarise and recommend businesses within generated responses.

    AI search services from UK agencies typically start from around £1,500 per month for SMEs, with enterprise-level projects costing significantly more.

    It depends on your priorities. If AI search visibility is a strategic priority, a specialist may be better suited. If AI search is one part of a broader strategy, an established agency with strong AI search capability may be more practical.
