Problem
Consumers are increasingly turning to AI chatbots like ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini to research purchases and decide which brands to trust, rather than browsing traditional search engine results. This shift means companies that are not optimized for AI answer engines are becoming invisible to a rapidly growing segment of potential customers, with AI-native traffic projected to reach 50% of all search traffic within two years.
Solution
Era® provides an all-in-one platform that helps marketing teams win both AEO (Answer Engine Optimization) and SEO simultaneously. The platform monitors a company's queries and competitors, identifies hidden keyword opportunities, and autonomously generates content across five formats—including articles, videos, and external reviews—that AI engines cite. Era® also handles technical optimization by ensuring websites are readable by crawling agents, updating schema across JSON-LD, sitemap, and llms.txt files, and building external mentions on platforms like YouTube, Medium, and Substack to increase citation likelihood.
Target Audience
Era® is designed for marketing teams at software products, local businesses, franchises, and e-commerce stores that need to capture traffic from AI answer engines and maintain visibility in traditional search results.
