Answer engine optimization agency, local SEO and technical SEO

TheAiThos is an answer engine optimization agency. We work on three things a clinic controls: what the models can read, what your listings say, and how recently patients reviewed you.

The first check is simple. Ask ChatGPT and Gemini about your specialty in your city and read who gets named. We then record the same answers on a schedule, so a change can be measured instead of claimed.

Answer engine optimization and generative engine optimization

An answer engine returns a written answer with a short list of sources underneath. To appear in one, a clinic needs pages that answer its questions in plain language, and a listing whose facts match those pages.

We collect the real questions for your specialty and your city, ask them repeatedly in ChatGPT and Gemini, and record who gets named and which sources each answer cites. That record is the baseline, and it is what the monthly report is measured against.

Local SEO and Google Maps

Google says local results are based mainly on relevance, distance and prominence (support.google.com/business/answer/7091). Distance is not something you can change, so we start with a grid check: the same search run from points around your address, so we know which of those results are yours to win.

Then the listing work: correct categories, services and hours that match the door, photos, and review invitations within each platform’s rules. No gating, no incentives, no bought reviews.

Technical SEO and content

A technical SEO audit opens the engagement. Can GPTBot, OAI-SearchBot, ClaudeBot and PerplexityBot fetch your pages? Those four are AI crawlers, and robots.txt is the file that tells them whether they may. Does your schema say what kind of practice you run and where? Is there one page per service and per area, or one page trying to cover everything?

Content follows the audit: pages a patient would read and a model can quote. What you treat, who you treat, where you are, and how to book.

What is included

  • A dated baseline: Maps grid, review pace over 90 days, AI answers for your area.
  • Google Business Profile cleanup, with a schedule for posts and photos.
  • Review invitation wording and timing that stay inside platform rules.
  • Schema for your practice, your services and your locations.
  • Area and treatment pages built from your own clinic information.
  • AI crawler access, robots rules and an llms.txt file where it helps.
  • Monthly AI answer collection, so you can read the wording change.
  • Weekly notes on work done and a monthly report on results.

What we do not do

  • We do not promise rankings or AI mentions. Answers change between runs.
  • We do not write, buy or trade reviews, and we do not gate them.
  • We do not buy links or sell guest posts.
  • We never handle patient records or patient data.
  • We do not invent case studies. We have one clinic group, co-owned by our founder, and we say so.
  • We do not claim a US office. We are based in Delhi.

Questions clinics ask us

How long before an AI answer names my clinic?

We do not promise mentions. The ranges we work to are typical industry ranges, not promises: correct brand facts in AI answers 2 to 6 weeks, first mentions on niche or local questions 1 to 3 months, competitive "best X" questions 3 to 6 months. AI answers also change run to run.

Can you make ChatGPT recommend my practice?

No. We do not promise rankings or AI mentions, and models choose their own sources. What we can do is put the same set of facts on your site and on your listing, in the words patients use, then measure whether the answers change.

Do you need access to patient records or the booking system?

No. We never handle patient records or patient data. We need read access to your website and your Google Business Profile, and analytics if you have it. The rest of the baseline comes from public listings and reviews.

What happens in the first three months?

Month one is the baseline: the Maps grid, review pace over 90 days, AI answers for the area, your pages and your schema. Then the fixes: area pages, profile work and schema. Reporting is weekly on work done and monthly on results. The minimum engagement is three months.
