Growth for companies buyers research before they buy

Buyers now ask an assistant what to buy before they ever reach a search results page. Codnity Growth gets you named in that answer, then makes sure the page they land on sells. Answer engine optimization, paid media, product and landing pages, and the automation behind the order.

Four services that make each other cheaper

The four services work as one growth system. Answer engine optimization creates demand capture and message intelligence; media buying buys controlled attention; landing pages turn that attention into action; AI agents produce the creative and remove the repetitive follow-up. The advantage is compounding work: each service improves the inputs, economics or speed of the next.

The stack the work runs on

Answer engines, the search and paid platforms the work is measured in, and the builders the pages actually ship on.

Why AI search changed how buyers find you

More than a billion people now use AI platforms to look things up. Google searches are falling, and most searches end without a click anyway. Visibility has stopped meaning ranked beneath the answer and started meaning named inside it.

Answer engine optimization fits any business whose buyer compares before they buy. A shopper weighing two brands, a distributor sourcing a supplier: both are gathering information, and an assistant is now where they gather it.

Not sure whether yours behaves the same way? That is a fifteen-minute answer, and sometimes the answer is no.

Paid media at 7.66%. Answer engine optimization higher still.

Paid carried the volume: 8,107 users at 7.66%, against a 2–3% B2B paid-ads benchmark. The landing pages, the targeting and the ad copy were ours. AI referrals converted best at 15.79%, but on 229 visits, roughly 3% of all leads. GA4 also splits that source across two rows, 15.79% and 11.01%. At this sample size it is a strong early signal, not a settled rate, and we would rather say so than have you find it in the screenshot.

Before Codnity Growth was a unit, our founder ran growth at a European B2B wholesaler. Flat organic, expensive paid, invisible in AI engines. We ran the whole system: paid media, landing pages, AI SEO and answer engine optimization, CRO. Paid carried the volume. Answer engine optimization converted best.

The buyer changes, the sequence does not. A distributor sourcing a new supplier and a shopper choosing between two skincare brands both ask before they commit, and both now ask an assistant first. Order sizes differ. The order of the work does not.

What nobody in this category will tell you

AI visibility does not become durable because someone promises a five-day ranking miracle. The first month should usually expose the baseline, the missing evidence and the highest-leverage changes. In reality, to hit results consistently you need at least three to six months, more if your competition has already started.

Tell us which part is not paying for itself

Nobody names you in AI answers. Paid costs more every quarter and returns less. The page loses the buyer after the click. The follow-up waits until morning. Whichever one it is, start there. You get back what we would do first, and whether it is worth doing at all.

You get a written answer, not an invitation to a discovery call.

Answer engine optimization FAQ

Questions we get asked

What is answer engine optimization?

Answer engine optimization, or AEO, is the work of getting your company named inside AI answers on ChatGPT, Google AI Overviews, Perplexity and Claude. The unit of success is a citation, not a ranking. It uses the same raw material as SEO, clear pages that answer real questions, but it wins on pages written as answers rather than as articles.
