We Optimized for AI Search. Here's What Changed.
We implemented every GEO tactic from our own playbook. Here is exactly what we built, what we changed, and what we learned about optimizing a real site for AI search citations.
Our most-cited deep dives on AI search visibility, plus what we shipped this month.

Google Preferred Sources is the one AI visibility lever your audience controls, not the model. Here is how it works, who qualifies, and how to earn it.

Our analytics say Claude is our #1 AI traffic source. Our own Radar says Claude cites us the least. The two rankings are almost perfectly inverted. Here is why referral traffic cannot measure AI visibility.
AI-powered travel concierge for the Philippines with RAG-driven itinerary generation, real-time flight search, and 3 user portals serving travelers, agents, and admins.
Technologies:
Planning a trip to the Philippines means juggling 7,641 islands, fragmented travel info, and outdated blogs. Travelers spend hours piecing together itineraries from scattered sources. Travel agents lack tools to serve clients efficiently at scale.
The result? Missed hidden gems, overpriced bookings, and cookie-cutter itineraries that ignore individual preferences and budgets.
Lakbay AI is a full-stack AI travel concierge that generates personalized Philippine itineraries in under 60 seconds. Powered by RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation) with pgvector embeddings, it combines real-time AI with curated local knowledge across 18 destinations.
Three dedicated portals serve travelers, travel agents, and administrators — each with role-based access and tailored workflows.
pgvector embeddings retrieve relevant local knowledge before generating responses — no hallucinated recommendations
Amadeus API integration finds real flights with prices, triggered naturally within AI conversation flow
Curated data: attractions, activities, budgets, weather, maps, food guides, and accommodation for each location
AI outputs are parsed into day-by-day cards with costs, locations, and time-of-day breakdowns
Traveler dashboard, agent portal with client management, and admin analytics — all role-gated via Clerk
MDX-powered content platform with custom image components, galleries, and SEO metadata

Traveler either uses the 4-step wizard (destination, duration, budget, interests) or asks anything in natural language.
Query is embedded via OpenAI, matched against pgvector knowledge base, and top results injected as context — grounding the AI in real local data.
AI streams a day-by-day itinerary with activities, costs, and tips. The frontend parses it into interactive cards with time-of-day breakdowns.
AI detects flight intent and triggers Amadeus API for real prices. Authenticated users save itineraries and chat history to their dashboard.
