AI Search Growth Retainer: frequently asked questions

What does the AI Search Growth Retainer include?
Every month you get a visibility review across Google and AI tools, ranked priorities, one agreed focus area, a strategy call and a written action summary, plus direct access to the team.
How much does an AI search retainer cost?
The core retainer starts at €2,500 per month for one brand, one market and 10 hours a month. More hours, markets or focus areas raise the fee. Services you add are priced separately.
How long is the commitment?
The retainer runs in quarterly cycles. At each quarterly review you decide whether to continue, scale, change or stop.
Do we need a retainer to buy other services?
No. Every service can be bought on its own as a one-off project or campaign. The retainer makes it easier to combine them under one strategy and one set of OKRs, whether the focus is SEO, GEO, content or authority.
How do you measure success?
We agree OKRs at the start of each quarter and report on business metrics such as AI-referred leads, AI-influenced pipeline, branded impressions and conversion rate, alongside visibility in Google and AI tools.
