About

AI assistants are the new way customers find local services. When someone asks ChatGPT for a plumber, AI recommends based on reputation, not ads. This is GEO (Generative Engine Optimization). Cheers is the full-stack GEO platform for service businesses. We analyze what AI sees, build your optimization strategy, and give your team tools to dominate AI recommendations. Vivint generated 70,000+ reviews in 5 months with Cheers and now dominates AI recommendations in every market they operate.
