Make AI work for you.
Customers now arrive through AI, and AI recommends what it can read. We find out what ChatGPT and Gemini say about your business, fix what is wrong at the source, publish one verified profile AI can cite on aeofacts.ai, and prove the change on the same test.
Before we meet, we run a free check on your website. No commitment.

Which hotel near the station has a public bath, free parking and late check-in?
Your business has a large public bath on the 12th floor, 38 free parking spaces, and check-in until 2:00 AM with advance notice. It's a 6-minute walk from the station. Breakfast is a buffet from 6:30 to 10:00.
Source: aeofacts.ai/profile/your-business · hotel-confirmedBefore AEO, the same question was answered: I couldn't find confirmed details for your business. Based on third-party listings, Harbor View Inn and Grand Bay Hotel appear to offer parking; check-in times vary, so it's best to contact the hotels directly. (Illustration, fictional businesses.)

How does Tabi Life's AEO service work?
In five steps: diagnose, fix at the source, publish, grow, prove.
Diagnose
The AEO Audit asks ChatGPT and Gemini 150 of your customers' questions, five times each: 1,500 recorded answers about you and the 3–4 competitors you name. We find which questions you lose and which facts are wrong.
Fix at the source
Every mention is read by an analyst. Each error is traced to where it came from (a third-party listing, the engine, or silence on your site) and fixed there. You get up to 15 briefs with the exact corrected value and the page or platform to change, plus llms.txt and FAQ schema ready for your web team to install.
Publish
Your verified facts go on one page AI engines can read and cite: your AI Profile on aeofacts.ai. One sentence per fact, its source shown, FAQ, only-here features, schema markup.
Grow
The AI Learner keeps finding the next question: from the audit gaps, from what customers ask through GEM with AI and AI Chat, and from a few questions a week it puts to your team. Every answer you approve becomes a verified fact.
Prove
The same 150 questions, the same engines, the same scoring, run again. The difference from baseline is the result.
Can facts be fixed without changing the website?
Yes. A fact approved once in the AI Learner goes live on your AI Profile without a website release; the website fixes are still delivered for your web team.
AI, customer questions and competitors keep changing. How fast you can update decides how much of the work pays off.
gap found → brief your web vendor → wait for a quote → internal approval → build → review → publish
Every update becomes a project, so updates slow down, then stop.
gap found → we confirm the fact with you → you approve it in the AI Learner → AI Profile updated → re-measured at the next audit
One approval from your team. We do the rest, and measure the result.
What exactly do we measure and move?
Your AI voice, broken into six parts: visibility, accuracy, distinctiveness, reach, growth and missing voice. One number is not enough; each part has its own measurement, its own lever, and its own place in the AI Learner dashboard.
◉ AI visibility
How often AI names and cites you on the questions that matter, and your share of voice against named competitors.
⊕ Reach
Where your voice is heard: AI engines, your aeofacts.ai profile, the chat on your site.
✓ Accuracy
Whether what AI says about you is true today, and where the wrong version came from.
↗ Growth
The trend: baseline to re-audit, tag count rising, unanswered rate falling.
★ Distinctiveness
Whether AI recommends you over the alternatives, not just lists you.
? Missing voice
Questions customers ask that you cannot answer yet, or that your site answers without AI ever naming you.
AI Voice
The share of customer questions where AI, and your own site, answer with your name and your facts.
Visibility, accuracy, distinctiveness and reach say where the voice is. Missing voice says where it needs to be next. Growth proves the loop works.
What tools are in Tabi Life's AEO stack?
Six: the AEO Audit tool, AI Profile (aeofacts.ai), the Site Intake tool, the AI Learner Dashboard, AI Chat (coming in November) and GEM with AI. Everything feeds the Learner; the Learner grows the profile; the profile gets you found.
Collect, measure, fix, publish, learn. The stack does the repeatable work; our team does the judgment. You see the result in one place.

The six tools
AEO Audit tool Live
1,500 recorded answers, scored against the competitors you name.
Asks ChatGPT and Gemini 150 customer questions, five times each: 1,500 recorded answers about your business and its competitors. Scores mentions, citations and share of voice against the competitors you name, by topic and engine; ranks every cited domain; runs 22 technical checks. The question set is frozen, so every re-audit runs identically. You get a 60–70 page report in your language with a five-page visual summary, up to 15 ready-to-implement briefs, a 30/60/90-day roadmap, and the crawlability fix pack (llms.txt and FAQ schema, ready to install).
AI Profile Live
Your verified facts on one page AI engines read and cite.
Your verified facts on one crawlable page, in Japanese and English, built only from facts you have approved. One sentence per fact with its source, FAQ, only-here features and schema markup; automated checks before anything goes live; a stated "not yet confirmed" section so AI does not guess. Updates after one approval, without a website release. Browse the profiles index →
Site Intake tool Live
Every page captured; your facts aligned against third-party listings.
Paste your sitemap and it captures every page as a full-page screenshot, the evidence record for everything that follows. Your site's facts become the baseline tag set, aligned row by row with third-party listings: confirmed, missing or contradicted. Gaps and conflicts go to the review queue and the audit. Works for any business with a website.
AI Learner Dashboard Live
The client's control room: every fact, every question, every score.
Your control room at portal.aeofacts.ai. Every fact on record with its source tier; a queue of proposed facts to accept or reject (accept publishes, reject keeps it off the profile); 2–3 questions a week driven by gaps and customer demand; reviews from GEM with AI; your AI visibility over time. From November: 3 ready-to-publish articles a quarter to approve and download, and a monthly traffic tab showing GA4 sessions including visits GA4 attributes to AI assistants. Nothing reaches your public profile without passing through it.
AI Chat Coming in November
Answers on your site, only from your approved facts.
A chat widget on your site. ChatGPT is used to understand the question; the answer comes only from your approved facts and AI Profile, with the fact shown. No fact? It says "please contact us" instead of guessing, and logs the question to the Learner as a fact you don't have yet, asked by a real customer.
GEM with AI Live
Your customer-facing web app; what guests tap on becomes facts.
Your customer-facing web app, opened from a QR code with no download: guide, mobile order, coupons, six-language chat with staff handoff, end-of-visit reviews. Reviews and what customers tap on become observed facts and the questions the Learner puts to you. The 2026 renewal of our smartphone concierge.
What does a business need for AI to recommend it?
Six things: readable facts, one truth everywhere, answers to real questions, reasons to choose you, facts kept current, and a score rather than an opinion. An engine will only recommend what it can read, trust, match and measure.
Six requirements. Miss one and the answer goes to a competitor or a third-party listing.
Readable facts
Every claim as a plain, checkable statement on a page engines can fetch. Not inside images, PDFs or adjectives.
One truth everywhere
Your site, listings and directories agree. When sources conflict, engines hedge or quote the third party instead of you.
Answers to real questions
Content that answers what customers actually ask AI, in their words. Engines match questions, not slogans.
Reasons to choose you
Specific, verifiable differentiators engines can use to recommend you over the next option.
Kept current
Facts that stay true. Engines down-weight sources that go stale and keep what keeps changing.
A score, not an opinion
You know how often engines name you, cite you and get you right, on a fixed test you can repeat.
How is Tabi Life's AEO different from other AEO services?
Most AEO offers cover one of the six requirements; Tabi Life runs all six as one loop and proves the result on the same test.
What businesses are typically sold today, what each leaves out, and where Tabi Life sits against it.
AI-content consultants
Write "AI-optimized" pages and FAQs for your site.
No measurement of what AI actually says. Wrong facts on third-party sites stay wrong. Stops when the content budget stops.
Monitoring dashboards
Track how often an engine mentions the brand, with a score.
A number, not a fix. No analyst review, no root cause, nothing published for AI to cite. You are left to act alone.
SEO agencies adding AEO
Schema markup, llms.txt and technical checks bolted onto SEO.
Makes the site readable, not accurate or distinctive. No competitor benchmark, no question set, no growth loop.
| What strong AEO requires | Content consultant | Monitoring tool | SEO + AEO agency | Tabi Life |

| 03 Answers to real questions | ||||
| 04 Reasons to choose you | ||||
| 05 Kept current | ||||

How Tabi Life covers all six

The market sells one piece. We run the whole loop, and prove it on the same test.
What happens in the first 90 days?
Month 1 sets up and measures the baseline, month 2 delivers fixes and launches, month 3 verifies with an identical re-audit. Timings start when Tabi Life receives your intake sheet.
Timings start when we receive your intake sheet. Optional items launch when you want them.
Month 1 · Set up and baseline
Within two weeks of your intake sheet you hold a written baseline: what AI says about you today, on 150 of your customers' questions, against the competitors you named.
- Fill in one intake sheet
- Name the 3–4 competitors to measure against
- Answer the first 12 fact questions in the AI Learner
- Hand llms.txt and FAQ schema to your web team

- Answer the article questions and the next 12 fact questions
- Web team installs the fixes and the crawlability files
- Optional: send the GEM with AI content sheet
Month 3 · Verify and measure
The same 150 questions, the same engines, the same scoring, run again. The difference from your baseline is the result, and it is yours to keep.
- Answer the next 12 fact questions
- Confirm or correct what third-party listings say about you
- Read the quarterly snapshot with us
How do you measure whether AEO worked?
With a five-link chain of evidence measured against a written baseline: what AI says, whether it is right, who arrives from AI, what customers tell you, and what it is worth in your own figures. No one can trace revenue to a single AI answer, so we do not claim to.
Five links, each measured on its own. Together they show what changed, why, and what it is worth to you.
What AI says
The same 150 questions, engines and scoring, re-run unchanged. Mentions, citations and share of voice against the competitors you named.
Baseline, then every quarterWhether it is right
Every mention read by an analyst. Errors counted by type and traced to their source, before and after.
Baseline, then every quarterWho arrives from AI
Visits referred by ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity and Copilot in your analytics, plus click-throughs from your AI Profile to your site.
Monthly, once GA4 is connectedWhat customers tell you
An "AI assistant" option in "how did you find us?" on your inquiry and purchase forms. Self-reported, like every other channel.
Live once added to your formsWhat it is worth
You apply your own numbers: the value of a direct customer versus one that comes through an intermediary or goes to a competitor.
Your model, your figuresThe quarterly re-audit scorecard
Before and after on six measures. Only changes outside the 95% confidence interval count as change.
When to expect movement
Expected ranges, not guarantees. What AI knows without searching changes only when providers retrain their models.
Where you stand today. Mentions, citations, share of voice and errors on your 150 questions, in writing.
Wrong facts start to clear. AI that searches the web picks up corrected pages within weeks. First movement on the questions the fix pages target.
Mentions and citations rise. Fix pages and the first articles are indexed and cited on the questions they were written for.
Share of voice moves. Twelve articles and four rounds of fixes add up. What AI knows without searching starts to reflect them as models are retrained.
What AEO packages does Tabi Life offer, and how much do they cost?
Three: AEO Audit (one-off), Core (monthly, quarterly re-audit) and Growth (monthly, monthly re-audit). Pricing is set for your market and industry and quoted in the meeting; every engagement starts with the audit.

Where can I read more about AEO and AI Profiles?
Tabi Life publishes explainers on AEO, AI Profiles and AI search for Japanese businesses on note (Tabi Life K.K.), in Japanese, and republishes them here.
What an AI Profile is, and why every business needs one
An AI Profile is one page per business that publishes approved, sourced facts in a form AI engines can read and cite, and why every business needs one.

AI uses facts more readily when they have a verifiable source and agree across several places. This article explains how to show sources, how to keep information consistent, and how AI Profile fits in.
Read on note (in Japanese) → noteAI Profile vs. your own website: what is different, and how to use both
An AI Profile is a single page of a business’s verified facts, one sourced sentence at a time, in a form AI can read easily. This article explains how its role differs from your own website and how to use the two together.
Read on note (in Japanese) →Why does AI visibility matter now?
Because customers now arrive through AI, and AI recommends only what it can read. In travel, the first category where AI planning took off, AI-referred traffic to US sites rose 119% year on year in July 2026 (Adobe).
The shift is already measurable in travel, the category where AI planning took off first.

What is AEO (Answer Engine Optimization)?
AEO (Answer Engine Optimization) is the work of making sure AI assistants such as ChatGPT and Gemini name your business, cite your website and state your facts correctly when customers ask them questions. Tabi Life K.K. provides AEO in Japan as a measured service: an AEO Audit that records 1,500 AI answers about your business, fixes delivered to the source of each error, a verified AI Profile that engines can cite, and an identical re-audit that proves what changed.
The questions we hear most, answered.
Why start now?
Isn't structured data, consistent listings and more content enough?
AI keeps changing. Will the work be wasted?
What if our competitors score well too?
How is this different from other AEO services?
What results can we expect?
Aren't 150 questions too many?
How much work is it for our team?
Does it help SEO too?
Is it worth the investment?
How do I find out what AI sees on my website?
Send Tabi Life your website address; before the first meeting we run a free site check and score AI crawlability, content structure, and technical and authority out of 100 each.
You get each score, what we found, and the first fix we would make. AI visibility, what ChatGPT and Gemini actually say about you against your competitors, is measured in the full audit.
No commitment. We bring the results to the meeting.
