Your next customer just asked ChatGPT who to call. It answered with one name. Was it yours?
We're an SEO company built for how people search now. The AIs answer your customers from a specific, findable set of sources. We find the sources the AIs already trust in your market, and we get you on them, on your behalf, standard listing fees on us. Then we feed them: a new blog post, a long-form video, and short videos, every week, plus email that keeps your list warm and a monthly report showing exactly who the AI recommends in your town. Same work we do on our own brands. And it comes with a guarantee: cited by AI for your money questions in 90 days, or we work free until you are.
We ask Gemini, ChatGPT, Claude, and Perplexity the 5 questions your customers actually ask, screenshot who gets recommended, score your AI visibility, and hand you the gap plan. In your inbox within 48 hours. If it's not worth the $19, tell us and we send the $19 back. You keep the report. (Why only $19? It's a bribe. I explain further down the page.)
Something changed, and most business owners haven't noticed yet.
Hey, Cory here. I run Neuron HQ. Here's the thing that made me build this service.
Your customers stopped Googling. Somebody with a leaking water heater used to get ten blue links and you could fight for one. Now they open ChatGPT and ask who to call, and the AI doesn't give them links. It gives them an answer. One answer. A couple of names, a price range, and a confident little paragraph about why. Google does it too now, an AI answer sitting on top of the page before anyone scrolls.
The AI always answers with somebody. And that somebody gets the call, half-sold, because the AI already told them who's good and what's fair. No comparison shopping. Whoever got named collects the customer.
Here's what I need you to understand, because it's the whole game:
AI doesn't rank pages. It cites sources. When your customers ask, it pulls from a specific, findable set of sources it trusts: industry directories, resource lists, roundups, forums, and a few fact-dense articles. If you're not on those sources, you're not in the answer. And there is no page two of ChatGPT.
That's why this is still an SEO job. The judges changed, the work didn't: figure out what search trusts, and become it. SEO and GEO are the same service now, and almost nobody in your market is doing it yet. The window is wide open. It will not stay open.
See who the AI recommends in your market today.
What we do for you, every single week.
No jargon. This is an SEO service we perform for you, with our hands on it. Every week, your business gets:
Not "5 Tips For Spring" fluff. A fact-dense article answering an exact money question your customers ask the AI. What things cost in your area. How to choose. What to avoid. Written the way AI models like to quote: direct answers, real numbers, structured so a machine can lift them straight into its response. With your name on it.
The AIs lean hard on video when they decide who's credible, and so do humans. We script it, produce it, and publish it, built off that week's post so every answer engine sees the same expert from every angle. You become the business that clearly knows what it's talking about, without spending your Saturdays learning to edit video.
We cut the week's long-form into short vertical videos and post them where your customers actually scroll. Same expert, every format, every angle. The AIs cross-check who shows up consistently, and so does the customer who just heard your name from ChatGPT and went looking.
This is the part most people miss. We research exactly which sources the AIs pull from when your customers ask, the directories, resource lists, industry roundups, and review sites behind the answers, and we get you added to them. We do the submitting, the pitching, and the follow-up for you. If a listing charges a fee, standard placements (up to $100 each) are on us, included in your plan.
Followers live on rented land. An email list is the only audience nobody can take from you. We write and send nurture emails to your list, helpful first, offer second, so that when someone's ready to buy, you're not a stranger asking for money. You're the expert who's been helping them for months.
This is the part nobody else gives you. Every month we ask ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google AI your market's money questions, fresh, and screenshot who gets recommended. You see exactly where you showed up, where you didn't yet, and the trend line moving. No vanity metrics. Just the only question that matters: when your town asks, does the AI say your name?
That's the work. A post, a video, and shorts every week. Placements on the sources the AIs already trust. Email that owns the relationship, and a report that proves what moved. This is not software you babysit. It's an SEO team doing the job for you, week after week.
How it works, start to finish.
-
1We find your questions, and where the AIs answer them fromEvery market has 10 to 20 money questions, the ones people ask right before they spend. We pull yours, ask the AIs all of them, and screenshot the answers. Then the part most people skip: we map the exact sources those answers were built from, the directories, roundups, and sites the AI trusted. Now we both know who the AI recommends today, which answers we're taking, and precisely where you need to show up to take them.
-
2We install the engineThe one-time Engine Install ($2,500, credited back at launch, so it effectively costs you nothing once we go live). We make your site readable to AI crawlers, lock your question list in writing (this is what the guarantee is measured against), build your citation-source map (the exact places the AIs pull answers from in your market), map the content plan, and set up the email system. You approve it. We build it.
-
3We produce weekly, and we place you where the AIs lookEvery week: a cited-ready post, a long-form video, and short videos, all produced by us, all reviewed by you before anything goes out. And alongside the content, we work the placement list: submitting you to the directories and resource lists the AIs cite, pitching the roundups, paying standard listing fees ourselves. Your total time commitment is about an hour a month. One call where we pull the expertise out of your head, and quick approvals by email.
-
4We measure, and the flywheel compoundsEvery month, the citation report shows what got picked up. We double down on what the AIs are citing and fix what they're skipping. Here's the beautiful part: content compounds. The post that gets cited in month three is still winning you customers in month thirty. Every month, the engine gets harder for a competitor to catch.
We're not selling you a theory. We're selling you the work we do on our own brands.
I'm going to be straight with you about proof, because you've been pitched by marketing people before and your guard is up. Good. Keep it up.
This is a new service line, so I'm not going to show you a wall of client logos. I'm going to show you something better: the engine, running, on our own money.
Neuron HQ eats its own cooking. The exact work on this page, the weekly content, the placement push, the citation report, is what we run on our own four brands, right now, this week.
Why does this matter to you? Because the biggest risk in hiring any marketing company is paying for a promise the vendor has never executed. We built this engine for ourselves first, ran it, kept the receipts, and only then turned it into a service. You're not the experiment. You're the second customer. We were the first.
And where we don't have a number yet, I won't invent one. No fake "300% more leads" charts. The proof you get is the kind you can verify: live posts, live videos, and your own monthly screenshots of who the AI recommends.
Across our four brands, each one built to answer a real money question the way AIs like to cite.
Scripted from those posts, feeding the same flywheel.
Every month we ask the AIs our own money questions, screenshot the answers, and adjust. The same report you'd get is the report we read about ourselves.
Right now we're working our own citation-source maps: directory claims, resource-list submissions, and roundup pitches across all four brands, paying the same listing fees we'd pay for you. We don't sell anything we don't do to ourselves first.
You can go look. The posts are live, the videos are up, and none of it is a mockup made for this page.
Read the live posts →Pick your plan.
Three tiers. Every one gets the full weekly work: a blog post, a long-form video, and short videos, every week, plus citation placements. The tiers differ in how hard we push. Most businesses pick the Growth Engine.
For the single-location business that wants to be the name the AI gives when the neighborhood asks.
- ▸ Weekly: a cited-ready blog post, a long-form video, and short videos
- ▸ Citation placements on the sources the AIs cite, standard listing fees on us
- ▸ Email nurture on your list
- ▸ The monthly citation report, with screenshots
- ▸ Covered by the 90-day guarantee
For the business that wants to be the obvious choice, not just a name in the mix.
- ▸ Everything in Local Engine
- ▸ Priority placements: we work your citation-source map harder, more pitches, more follow-up, more sources landed
- ▸ Full email nurture engine, helpful-first sequences that sell without pestering
- ▸ Monthly citation report plus the gap plan: what we're taking next and how
- ▸ Covered by the 90-day guarantee
For the operator who wants competitors explaining to their spouse why your name keeps coming up.
- ▸ Everything in Growth Engine
- ▸ Paid ads pointed at your cited content, so the flywheel spins faster
- ▸ Quarterly strategy sessions with me, Cory, mapping the next 90 days of market capture
- ▸ Priority everything
- ▸ Covered by the 90-day guarantee
The Engine Install: every tier starts with a one-time $2,500 Engine Install (the question list, the citation-source map, the AI-readiness work, the content plan, the email setup). The full $2,500 is credited back at launch. You're fronting the setup, not paying extra for it.
Cited by AI for your money questions in 90 days, or we work free until you are.
Plain English: at install, we lock your money-question list in writing. Every month, the citation report checks it. If the AIs aren't citing you for your money questions by day 90, you stop paying and we keep working, at no charge, until they are. No asterisks, no "results may vary" mouse print. We can offer this because we run the engine on ourselves and know what it does.
Not ready to pick a tier? Start with the $19 AI Test and see your market's answers first.
Your three real options (honestly compared).
You have three ways to deal with this. I'll give you the honest version of each, including when we're NOT the right answer.
| Comparison factor | Do it yourself | SEO stuck in 2019 | Neuron (SEO built for now) |
|---|---|---|---|
| What it costs | $0 cash, 10 to 15 hours a week of your life | Typically $1,500 to $5,000/mo | $1,500 to $5,000/mo |
| Built for | Whatever you have time to learn | Ranking links in old Google | Being the answer, in AI and in Google |
| What you get | Whatever you manage to ship between jobs | Keyword reports, backlinks, blog fluff | Weekly posts, videos, and shorts, citation placements, email nurture, citation report |
| Measured by | Gut feel | Rankings and traffic | Screenshots of who the AI actually recommends |
| Commitment | Your willpower | Often 6 to 12 month contracts | Month to month |
| Guarantee | None | Almost never | Cited in 90 days or we work free until you are |
Doing it yourself genuinely works if you have the hours and you like writing. Everything we do can be learned. The catch isn't ability, it's that the engine only compounds if it runs every single month, and you already have a business to run. Most owners ship hard for six weeks, then a busy season hits, and the engine dies quietly. If you have the time and the stubbornness, take the free checklist at the bottom of this page and go. Sincerely.
A traditional SEO agency isn't a scam either. Rankings still matter, and the good agencies earn their fee. But most are optimizing for a world where people click links, and your customers increasingly don't. Here's a fair test: ask your agency to show you where you appear in ChatGPT's answers, with screenshots. If they can, great, keep them. If they change the subject, that's the gap our version of SEO exists to fill.
The engine is for the owner who wants the outcome, not another hobby. You bring your expertise for an hour a month. We do everything else, and we're on the hook for a guarantee neither of the other two options will give you.
See the truth about your market before you buy the engine.

The questions you're actually asking.
Every answer is visible on the page, no accordions to fight. More across the whole studio lives on the full FAQ.
What does this cost, really?
The engine runs $1,500 to $5,000 a month depending on tier, plus a one-time $2,500 install that's credited back at launch. But run the math the way I'd run it for my own business: what's one new customer worth to you over a year? For most local service businesses, that's several hundred to several thousand dollars each. If being the AI's recommendation brings you one extra customer a month, the engine pays for itself. Everything past that compounds. And you're not gambling: the 90-day guarantee means if you're not cited, you're not paying.
How fast will I see results?
Honest answer: content starts publishing in your first week, and AI citations usually take a few months to stick, which is exactly why the guarantee is set at 90 days and not 90 hours. Anyone promising you AI visibility next week is lying to you. What you WILL see immediately: your baseline report (who the AI recommends today), then a monthly trend line. You're never wondering if it's working. You're watching it work, screenshot by screenshot.
What is GEO? Is it different from SEO?
Generative Engine Optimization, and no, it's not a different service. GEO is what SEO is now. The job was always the same: figure out what search trusts, and become it. The judges changed. Google ranked pages; the AIs cite sources and write one answer. So the work is making you one of the sources that answer is built from: fact-dense content, and your name on the directories, resource lists, and roundups the AI already pulls from. One service. We optimize for Google and for the AIs at the same time, because they read the same sources.
Why wouldn't I just hire an SEO agency?
We are one. The difference is what we optimize for. Most agencies are still optimizing for a world where people click through a list of links, and your customers increasingly don't. We do the foundational SEO that still matters (fast site, clean structure, real content), and we aim all of it at the place your customers actually stop now: the AI's answer. Measured by citations, with screenshots. Ask any other SEO agency to guarantee you AI citations in 90 days. We'll wait.
Where does the content actually go? My website?
Your website gets the weekly post, and your channels get the videos. But here's the part most marketing companies skip: the AIs don't only read your website. They build answers from directories, resource lists, industry roundups, and review sites. So we research exactly which of those sources the AIs cite in your market, and we get you added to them, on your behalf. We do the submitting, the pitching, and the follow-up. If a legitimate source charges a listing fee, standard placements (up to $100 each) are included in your plan. You'll see every placement in your monthly report.
Do I have to sign a contract?
No. Month to month. The install fee is one-time and credited at launch, and every month after that you stay because the report shows it's working, not because a contract traps you. I'd rather earn you every month than hold you hostage for twelve.
What if I already have a marketing agency?
Keep them if they're earning their fee. We don't replace social media management, and we only touch ads at the Market Owner tier, so we slot alongside most agencies without stepping on toes. The clean test: ask your agency for screenshots of where you show up in ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google AI. If they deliver, you may not need us. If they can't, that's the exact hole we fill.
How do you measure "being cited"? Sounds fuzzy.
It's the least fuzzy thing we do. Every month, we ask ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google AI your locked list of money questions, fresh, and screenshot the answers. Your name in the answer, cited or recommended, counts. Not there, doesn't. You get the screenshots, the score, and the month-over-month trend. You can literally re-run any question yourself and check us. Try getting that from a "brand awareness" report.
Do I need a new website first?
Usually no. The engine publishes to your existing site, and part of the install is making that site readable to AI crawlers. If your site is genuinely sabotaging you (dead slow, broken on phones, invisible to crawlers), we'll tell you with evidence, not vibes. That's what our $29 Website X-Ray is for: a scored 27-point teardown of your current site plus a live mockup of your own homepage rebuilt by us, delivered within 48 hours, money back if you don't find it useful. Why so cheap? Same play as the AI Test: it's a bribe. We're betting that once you see your own homepage rebuilt properly, you'll want the real thing, and the $29 is credited toward any website tier ($1,000, $2,000, or $5,000) if you ever do. No pressure either way. Plenty of engines run great on sites we didn't build.
What do you need from me?
About an hour a month. One call where we pull the answers out of your head (you already know things your competitors would pay for, you just haven't written them down), and quick email approvals before anything publishes. No homework, no dashboard to babysit, no "content calendar" you're secretly responsible for.
I'm a local business. Does this work locally, or just for big national brands?
Local is actually where this works BEST. National questions have thousands of sources fighting to be cited. "Best walk-in tub installer near me" or "how much does a crown cost in your city" might have two or three credible local sources, sometimes zero. Less competition for the citation means faster wins. The window is bigger for you than it is for the Fortune 500. That's the opportunity.
How does the guarantee actually work?
Mechanics, in order: at install we agree on your money-question list, in writing, before any work starts. Every monthly report is scored against that exact list, so there's no moving the goalposts in either direction. At day 90 we run the check together. If the AIs aren't citing you for your money questions, your monthly fee stops and we keep working free until they are. That's the whole mechanism. No claim forms, no fine print, no "you must have complied with section 7(b)."
What if I want to cancel?
Tell us, finish your current month, and that's it. No exit fees, no awkward retention call. And here's the part most agencies get wrong: everything we made is yours and stays yours. The posts stay on your site, the videos stay on your channel, the email list stays your list. The citations we earned keep working for you after we're gone. You're building an asset, not renting one.
Here's exactly what to do next.
Let me lay out your options like a friend would, because that's what this whole page has been.
If you're ready, book the engine. The door's open, there's no deadline game on the core service, and we start with the install this month. Call me at (385) 374-9295 or email support@neuron-hq.com and we'll pick your tier together. Remember what you're actually buying: being the name the AI gives when your town asks who to call. Calls that arrive half-sold. And never again sweating the month the referrals dry up.
If you're curious but not convinced, take the $19 AI Test.
We ask Gemini, ChatGPT, Claude, and Perplexity the 5 questions YOUR customers actually ask, "best X near me," "what should Y cost," all of them. You get screenshots of exactly who the AI recommends, your AI-visibility score, and the gap plan for taking those answers. Delivered within 48 hours.
Why is it only $19? Because it's a bribe, and I'll say so out loud. I want you to see, in your own market with your own questions, who the AI is sending your customers to. Because I know what happens when an owner sees a competitor's name in that screenshot: they want it fixed. And we sell the fix. That's the whole play, no trick to it. You risk $19, you get the truth about your market either way, and if you don't think it was worth it, say the word and I'll send your $19 back. You keep the report.
Delivered within 48 hours. Money back if it's not worth it. You keep the report either way.
Not ready to spend $19? Fine. Run the test yourself, free.
Drop your email and I'll instantly send you the 5 questions to ask ChatGPT about your business right now, so you can watch, live, exactly who the AI recommends in your market. Takes five minutes, and you can't unsee it.
