Question 1

What is GEO (Generative Engine Optimization)?

Accepted Answer

GEO stands for Generative Engine Optimization. It is the practice of optimizing your website to appear in AI-generated answers from ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google AI Overviews, and Claude. Foglift is the first tool to combine SEO and GEO analysis in one scan.

Question 2

What does Foglift analyze?

Accepted Answer

Foglift scans websites across 5 categories: SEO (meta tags, headings, Open Graph), GEO (AI-crawler access, structured data, citation-readiness), Performance (Core Web Vitals, load time), Security (HTTP headers), and Accessibility (WCAG compliance, contrast, alt text).

Question 3

How is Foglift different from Ahrefs or Semrush?

Accepted Answer

Ahrefs and Semrush focus only on traditional SEO. Foglift is the first tool to combine SEO + GEO (AI search optimization) analysis, checking if your site is ready for AI-generated answers. It starts free and costs 10x less than alternatives.

Question 4

Does Foglift have an API?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Foglift offers a free public REST API at foglift.io/api/v1/scan that returns JSON results. Developers can use it from the terminal, CI/CD pipelines, or AI coding assistants like Claude Code and Cursor.
