The AI visibility gap
Why buyers don’t hear your name.
01
The shortlist is written by AI
Buyers ask ChatGPT or Perplexity “what’s the best tool for…” and get three names. If you are not one of them, you are not in the deal.
02
Page one doesn’t carry over
Ranking first on Google does not mean an AI assistant will mention you. AI leans on different signals and different sources.
03
Clicks fall while rankings hold
When AI answers the question on the results page, fewer people click through, even if your positions look stable in your reports.
04
Someone else is being cited
AI describes your category using your competitors’ pages, review sites and forums. Your story is told without you.

About
Built by an operator, not a slide deck.
Valosilta is led by Masoud, a growth marketer with more than ten years across SaaS, fintech, edtech, e-commerce and real estate. He has owned strategy and shipped the work himself: SEO, GEO, performance campaigns and the AI agents that run them.
Valosilta is Finnish for “bridge of light”: the connection between your brand and the buyers looking for it.
Small by design. You work directly with the person doing the work, from Helsinki, for teams anywhere.
Write to MasoudQuestions buyers ask
What is GEO?
Generative Engine Optimization is the practice of making your brand easy for AI assistants to find, understand and recommend when buyers ask questions in your category.
How is GEO different from SEO?
SEO earns rankings. GEO earns mentions and citations inside AI answers. Strong SEO is the foundation, but AI also weighs third-party sources, consistent facts about your brand and how clearly your content answers specific questions.
Which AI platforms do you cover?
ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google Gemini and Google AI Mode, including AI Overviews. If another assistant matters in your market, we add it.
How long until we see results?
Technical fixes can show up within weeks. Content and authority gains usually build over two to three months. The audit sets a baseline, so every change is measured against it.
Can you guarantee we will be cited?
No. Nobody controls what AI assistants say, and anyone who guarantees citations is guessing. We measure where you stand, act on what is most likely to move the numbers, and report honestly on what changes.
How much does it cost?
The AI Visibility Audit is a fixed €1,500. Ongoing work is priced per month based on scope, which we agree after the audit.
We already have strong SEO. Do we still need GEO?
Strong SEO helps, and it makes GEO faster. But AI assistants also rely on sources outside your site, so good rankings alone do not guarantee you are recommended.
Do you work with teams outside the Nordics?
Yes. We work with businesses of every size and sector, in Finland, across Europe and beyond, in English.
