Programs

Four programs. One philosophy.

Every engagement combines some mix of these. AEO runs through all of them - it's the floor, not an upsell. Swipe, arrow, or pick from the deck below to jump between tiers.

Common questions

Is AEO really included in every tier?

Yes. AEO is our differentiator and the floor of what we offer, not an upsell. Every program - Core through Operating System - includes ongoing AEO work for ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google AI Overviews, and Gemini.

Why no pricing on the site?

Local markets vary too much for a fixed price list to be useful. A painting contractor in Portland competing for high-end residential has a different cost than a tour operator in a saturated coastal market. We quote against your market and your goals on the strategy call.

Do you offer market exclusivity?

Yes - for Core and above. We don't run two competing painting contractors in the same service area, or two tour operators selling overlapping experiences.

Can I switch tiers mid-engagement?

Always. Most clients start at Core and graduate to Pipeline once ranking + AEO momentum kicks in. The transition is structured - nothing gets dropped.

What does the first 90 days look like?

Discovery week → audit week → foundation build (website, GBP, schema, tracking) over weeks 3–6 → AEO + content engine live by week 8 → ads launch (Pipeline+) by week 9–12. After that, every additional week compounds.

Do you work with marketing agencies?

We do, but it's not what we lead with on the site. If you're an agency wanting AEO + AI infrastructure work, email hello@fourpielabs.com directly.
