AEO vs SEO

AEO vs SEO is not a fork in the road. Most product sites need both. SEO is the ranked SERP. AEO is extractability in answer engines. Fig’s one router and five specialist skills cover both, not two competing products.

When the SERP is the spec

If Google still shows ten blue links (and features) for the query, start with fig-seo-aeo and get_serp. Match the format that already wins.

When the answer engine is the spec

If the brand cares about ChatGPT or AI Overviews mentions, use fig-answer-research. Fig does not track Claude, Gemini, or Perplexity mentions. Say that; do not invent a score.

One prepaid balance

Fig is prepaid credit, not a monthly seat. Checkout starts at $10; a $20 pack is the recommended default. Your agent spends the balance on live lookups, then asks you to approve Checkout again when remaining USD cannot cover the next call.

Fig does not guarantee rankings, citations, or traffic. It returns research data your agent can call. Humans approve sign-in and Checkout. The agent (or you) decides what to change on the site.
