GEO for B2B and SaaS companies selling in the UAE and Saudi Arabia
GEO for B2B and SaaS gets your company onto the shortlist when buyers ask ChatGPT, Perplexity or Copilot to compare vendors. Those answers favour published pricing, clear compliance details and honest comparison pages. Hovi Digital Lab builds them for Gulf buyers, covers Bing and Perplexity as well as Google, and tracks the resulting demos.

What we measure
What we measure
- Citation share on comparison, alternative and compliance prompts
- Mentions on the review and comparison sites the engines cite
- Demo requests and trials from AI referrals
- Accuracy of pricing and features in AI answers
Watch-outs
- Comparison pages must be fair and current; the engines also read your competitors' pages and reviews.
- Compliance claims must be exact. A wrong claim repeated by an AI engine is a sales and legal problem.
- Long sales cycles mean leads lag citations; report on both.
GEO questions, answered
How do B2B companies get recommended by ChatGPT?
Publish the facts buyers compare (pricing or ranges, compliance, integrations, data residency) on crawlable pages, build fair comparison and alternative pages, and get listed and reviewed on the software sites ChatGPT cites for your category.
Does Perplexity matter for B2B in the Gulf?
More than for consumer brands. Its share of chatbot use is small overall (about 2% in the UAE and 4% in Saudi Arabia and Qatar in September 2026), but it is popular with researchers and technical buyers. Allowing PerplexityBot is a small step with real upside.
Should we publish pricing to rank in AI answers?
If you can, yes, even as a range. Comparison answers are built from numbers the engine can find, and vendors without them are often described vaguely or left out.
