Question 1

What is Causabi and what does the name mean?

Accepted Answer

Causabi is a GEO (Generative Engine Optimization) platform that helps businesses appear in ChatGPT, Gemini, Grok and Claude answers. The name comes from the Latin word causa — meaning reason, cause. The idea: Causabi gives your business the reason AI search engines mention and recommend you.

Question 2

What is GEO optimization and how does it differ from SEO?

Accepted Answer

GEO (Generative Engine Optimization) is the practice of optimizing your website for AI search engines: ChatGPT, Gemini, Grok, Claude. Unlike traditional SEO (Google rankings), GEO affects whether AI cites your business in its answers. 73% of AI search queries end without a click — AI gives the answer directly from your content.

Question 3

How does Causabi improve ChatGPT visibility?

Accepted Answer

Causabi generates FAQ Schema (gives +41% citation rate increase according to AI search research), fixes robots.txt so GPTBot and ClaudeBot can crawl your site, creates an AI profile file for direct LLM communication, and adds Schema.org markup for entity recognition in AI.

Question 4

What is an AI profile file and why do I need it?

Accepted Answer

An AI profile file (llms.txt) is a machine-readable description of your business, services and FAQ placed at the site root. It is read by ChatGPT Browse, Claude Tools and other AI agents as the first source of information about your business. As of 2026, adopted by 12,000+ sites including Anthropic, Cloudflare, Vercel.

Question 5

How much does Causabi cost?

Accepted Answer

The Free plan is free forever: 1 site, AI Visibility Score, AI profile, schema markup and bot access. Growth ($19/month): up to 5 sites, 10 monitored queries, weekly monitoring of ChatGPT, Gemini, Grok and Claude. Pro ($49/month): unlimited sites, 30 queries, daily monitoring, full analytics. Agency ($99/month): everything in Pro plus white-label reports and multi-client dashboard.

Question 6

How fast does the site analysis work?

Accepted Answer

Full AI audit takes 30–90 seconds. The tool scans up to 8 key pages, checks robots.txt, Schema.org markup, FAQ blocks, content depth and brand signals. Result: Score 0–100 with detailed breakdown and specific fix recommendations.

Question 7

Does Causabi work with Shopify?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Enter your Shopify store URL to get a full AI audit and all optimization files (llms.txt, schema.jsonld, robots.txt patch). Upload files via Settings › Files or Themes › Edit code. The hosted AI profile on causabi.com works instantly without touching your store.

Question 8

Does Causabi work with WordPress?

Accepted Answer

Yes. There is a Causabi WordPress plugin that installs like any plugin and automatically creates llms.txt, schema markup, and opens access for AI bots. No manual file editing needed.

Question 9

Do you need access to my CMS or server?

Accepted Answer

No. Just the URL. You download a ZIP of generated files and upload them yourself — or use the hosted AI profile on causabi.com which AI bots already index.

Question 10

What exactly does Causabi add to my site?

Accepted Answer

Four files: llms.txt (your business description for AI), robots.txt patch (allows GPTBot, Gemini-Bot, Claude-Bot), schema.jsonld (structured data for search engines), FAQ block (ChatGPT quotes answers directly). Everything in a ZIP — upload it yourself or hand it to your developer. The hosted profile on causabi.com works with no changes to your site.

Question 11

Can I see competitors in AI answers?

Accepted Answer

Yes. For every monitored query you see: is your business mentioned, what position, and which competitors appear nearby. This lets you understand who to learn from and where you are already winning.

Question 12

How long until my business appears in ChatGPT after optimization?

Accepted Answer

Hosted profile on causabi.com is indexed by AI bots in 1–7 days. Files on your own site take 2–4 weeks depending on ChatGPT and Gemini crawl frequency.

Question 13

How does AI citation monitoring work?

Accepted Answer

Once a week (or daily on Pro) we send each of your target queries directly to ChatGPT, Gemini, Grok and Claude via official APIs — not browser simulation. We check: is your business mentioned, what position, who are the competitors nearby. All in a dashboard with 3–6 month trend history.

Question 14

Is Causabi open source?

Accepted Answer

Yes, the core (causabi-geo CLI) is on PyPI under MIT license. pip install causabi-geo — run analysis and generate files locally without signing up.
