AEO Agency Pricing in India (2026)
Most AEO agencies do not publish a price. We do. Our retainers run from ₹75,000 to ₹2.75 lakh a month by tier. We do not cap prompts and every tier covers all six engines. The fee reflects the time we assign to your account.
Our three tiers
| Small Enterprise | Medium Enterprise | Large Enterprise | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Monthly fee | From ₹75,000 | ₹1,50,000 | ₹2,75,000 |
| Prompt limit | None | None | None |
| Engines covered | All six | All six | All six |
| Full prompt universe discovery | Included | Included | Included |
| What changes by tier | Account time assigned | More account time assigned | Most account time assigned |
| Tools and third-party costs | Extra, at actual | Extra, at actual | Extra, at actual |
| Contract | 12 months | 12 months | 12 months |
Fees are per month and exclude tools and third-party costs. As content generation, placements and PR grow, the cost scales with the effort, and we show you the effort before you commit.
Why we do not cap prompts
AEO has no head prompt volume. Each buyer prompt is close to unique, so a count of prompts says little about the work. Capping prompts also pushes an agency to optimise for a number. We discover the full prompt universe for every client and optimise for business outcomes.
What we measure
We target traffic gains and visibility, not mentions and citations alone. Appearing first in an answer and appearing seventh are very different outcomes. We report your position, and we report the traffic that follows.
What is included in every tier
- Full prompt universe discovery.
- Coverage of all six engines: ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google AI Overview, Google AI Mode, Google Gemini and Microsoft Copilot.
- Page rewrites, new pages, schema and internal linking.
- Monthly reporting on position, visibility and traffic.
What is billed at actual
- Third-party placements such as guest posts, listicles and PR, at the publisher's cost.
- API credit costs for scans.
- Tracking tools. Basic plans from tools such as Otterly and Profound track ChatGPT by default. Velivo One AEO covers all six engines by default on a pay-per-scan model.
Audit and baseline
Clients on a 12-month retainer receive a complimentary audit, baseline assessment and prompt universe generation. API credit costs are billed at actual.
Without a retainer, a standalone AI visibility audit costs between ₹1 lakh and ₹6 lakh. The top of that range covers full prompt discovery across Reddit, Quora, forums, social media and YouTube comments, prompt expansion with our own system and one-time tracking. See the AI citation gap audit.
Contract terms
All AEO and GEO contracts run for 12 months. Either party can cancel with one month's notice.
What to ask any AEO agency about price
- Does the fee cap prompts, and if so why?
- Does it cover every engine or only ChatGPT?
- Are placements, API credits and tools inside the fee or billed at actual?
- Do you report traffic and position, or only mentions?
- What are the term and the notice period?
