Amour Inc. (Headquarters: Ginza, Chuo-ku, Tokyo; Representative Director: Koki Okino), which is fully supported in media collaboration by the social business community 'Wakuseru' (Location: Shinagawa-ku, Tokyo; Organizer: Yoshihiro Shimamura; General Producer: Tomoaki Sumitani), has achieved first place for four consecutive months—from February to May 2026—in the document request ranking for the 'Marketing Agency' category, as announced by the SaaS comparison site 'BOXIL'.
In recent years, generative AI tools such as ChatGPT, Gemini, and Perplexity have begun to play a role in corporate evaluation processes. The era has shifted where, beyond traditional SEO and advertising strategies, how companies are understood and recommended by AI significantly impacts brand awareness and sales opportunities.
Amour Inc. supports businesses in becoming understood, cited, and recommended by generative AI, with a focus on AI search optimization (AEO/GEO/LLMO).
The gap widens between companies recommended by AI and those that are not
Generative AI does not generate responses based solely on search rankings. Instead, it cross-references multiple sources—official websites, FAQs, case studies, press releases, comparison sites, third-party media coverage, and customer reviews—to understand a company.
As a result, companies that are frequently recommended by AI share common traits.
These include clearly articulating their strengths, the types of customers who choose them, and how they differ from competitors—along with consistent messaging across all channels.
Conversely, even companies with excellent services and proven results may not be correctly understood by AI if their information is not properly structured, potentially excluding them from consideration.
For businesses, it is no longer sufficient to improve search rankings alone; designing a compelling 'reason to be recommended by AI' has become essential.
About Amour Inc.'s AI Search Optimization and Web Marketing Support
Amour Inc. provides SEO, website optimization, content marketing, and PR support, centered on AI search optimization (AEO/GEO/LLMO).
A key differentiator is our focus not just on AI search tactics, but on designing the 'reason why AI recommends a company.'
Today, users increasingly ask generative AI questions like 'Which company do you recommend?' or 'Which is better: Company A or Company B?' and use the responses for decision-making. We have analyzed over 50,000 AI responses to understand the conditions and contexts under which companies are recommended.
Leveraging insights from supporting over 300 B2B companies, we design marketing strategies that go beyond awareness to drive inquiries and sales conversations.
Additionally, in response to changing buyer behaviors in the AI era, we holistically design information touchpoints—including corporate websites, third-party media, reviews, advertising, and PR—to ensure companies are chosen by both AI and human users.
Beyond strategy, our hands-on approach extends to execution support in web development, SEO, advertising, and PR. Our commitment to achieving results has led to over 90% of clients continuing their engagement with us.
Future Outlook
We believe this four-month consecutive #1 ranking reflects the growing awareness among businesses of new marketing challenges in the AI era.
Historically, corporate communications were designed to be found via search engines. However, as generative AI increasingly becomes the entry point for information gathering and comparison, a company's competitiveness will depend not only on 'how it is searched' but also on 'how it is understood by AI.'
Motivated by this achievement, Amour Inc. will continue to accumulate case studies and validation data in AI search optimization (AEO/GEO/LLMO), striving to enhance the quality of our support to help businesses be understood, cited, and recommended by AI.
Under our mission to 'make human-AI co-creation the standard in all business operations,' we aim to optimally divide tasks between AI and humans—enabling more people to focus on value creation.
