# GEO Tracker AI > AI search visibility platform (GEO / AEO — Generative Engine Optimization / Answer Engine Optimization). We run buyer-style prompts through up to five AI engines (ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google AI Mode, Gemini, and Google AI Overview) on a schedule and measure Share of Voice (Share of Model), AI citations, and citation quality — then tell you the specific actions that move the needle 14 days later. Measurement is market-aware: 26 markets and 14 query languages with verified per-country location codes, prompts generated in the market language, and per-market aggregator/comparison-site filtering of the competitor set. ## Working with the founder (human support) GEO Tracker AI isn't an anonymous SaaS tool — it's a working relationship. Every paying customer gets the founder directly: he goes through your results, re-checks them by hand, and helps you build the action plan, including moves the system doesn't suggest yet. No ticket queue, no chatbot; most replies land the same day. Most tools in this category start at $200/mo and you never reach a human. Here, you reach the founder — email support@geotrackerai.com. ## Czech market offer (/cz) - [AI viditelnost pro české e-shopy](https://geotrackerai.com/cz): Founder-led, fully managed GEO/AEO service for Czech e-commerce. Petr personally builds a buyer-intent prompt battery in Czech and English, runs repeated measurements across ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google AI Mode, reads the results by hand to separate signal from noise, and delivers a prioritised written action plan with a monthly check-in call. Measures the client's market segment, individual product categories, private-label brands, and highest-margin items.
