CASE STUDY · AGICAP · B2B SAAS

How I got Agicap cited in AI search answers

01 The challenge

Buyers are moving from Google results to AI answers. Agicap needed its content to be found, extracted and cited by LLMs, not just ranked.

02 What I did

Restructured listicles and guides into AI-friendly, extractable formats, deployed Schema at scale, tracked high-intent prompts, and earned mentions on domains LLMs already cite.

03 The result

Agicap pages are now cited as sources in AI-generated answers, and the primary commercial keyword climbed from #27 to #3.
