Is AEO Just Good SEO With Better Answers and Better Proof?
AEO is not a separate cheat code. It is strong SEO, clearer answers, better page structure, and stronger proof that your brand deserves to be cited by AI search.
Every case study, system breakdown, and field note, newest first and filterable by topic. No theory, no demos. Only systems that run in production and what it took to get them there.
This is the complete archive: all 478 posts across 52 topics, newest first, filterable by category. It holds the case studies, the model and tool comparisons, and the field notes from systems I built and run. For the curated view, where the writing sits alongside the free Claude Code skills, start at the Library instead.
The archive leans in four directions: AI Search Visibility (95), AI Agent Architecture (58), AI Tools (38), and AI Coding Agents (26). Those four account for most of what I publish, because they are where most of the client questions land.
Three places to start. The AI search visibility guide is the hub for the largest cluster and links out to every spoke in it. Grok Imagine vs Midjourney is the image model comparison, rebuilt against live leaderboard data rather than left to go stale. OutreachIQ is the longest running system breakdown here, from first prototype through to a public repo.

Finance agents show how back-office AI should work: rules, source data, exceptions, review standards, clear outputs, and humans approving risky steps.
AI deployment is where AI starts becoming useful: choosing repeatable workflows, connecting models to data and tools, adding controls, and getting teams to use the system.
AI agents need more than better prompts. Learn the lightweight control plane small teams can use for identity, permissions, logs, review, ownership, and shutdown.
