Search is no longer transactional. It’s conversational, AI-driven, and increasingly shaped by how Answer Engines interpret brands. In this live workshop, Avenue Z and Profound will conduct real-time AEO Brand Audits to show how brands appear across ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, and other AI-native experiences. You will learn how AI Search influences demand, reputation, and revenue, and leave with an actionable audit framework and tactics to understand, control, and scale how your brand shows up in the zero-click internet.
