How design-led brands get found is changing. AI-powered search and assistants (ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google AI Overviews) are increasingly the first stop for someone researching an architect, interior designer or product studio, not just a traditional search engine. An AI SEO agency exists because being ranked on page one no longer guarantees you’re the practice an AI assistant actually recommends.
As an AI SEO specialist, I work with architecture, interior design, product and art brands to make sure these platforms describe your practice accurately, cite it credibly, and surface it confidently when they answer on your behalf.
What an AI SEO Agency Should Actually Include
It starts with an audit: how do ChatGPT, Perplexity and Google’s AI tools currently describe your practice, if at all? From there, it means strengthening the structured content and sources these platforms draw from (schema markup, clear factual content about who you are and what you do, and credible third-party mentions), so there’s something accurate and citable for them to find. That audit is the first thing any AI SEO agency worth hiring should show you before proposing fixes.
It also means ongoing monitoring, the part most AI SEO agency engagements skip. AI platforms change how they source and summarise information constantly, so visibility here isn’t a one-off fix. It’s a discipline you keep working at, in the same way search rankings need maintaining.

Why This Matters Now
This is still an early, fast-moving discipline, and no agency can promise a guaranteed mention inside a generated answer. Anyone who does isn’t being straight with you. What a considered approach can do is put every signal these platforms draw on in your favour: accurate structured data, credible citations, and consistent representation of your practice across the web, so that when these tools do look, what they find is correct. That’s the honest job of an AI SEO agency: reducing the guesswork, not promising results no one can guarantee.
New to this? Start with my plain guide: what is AI visibility, and how to check yours.
A considered process, from brief to results.
Discover
Your practice, your work and your audience come first, before anything is proposed.
Strategy
A clear plan across the channels that matter most to your goals and market.
Create & Launch
Content, campaigns and optimisation, built and shipped on a considered timeline.
Report & Refine
Plain-language reporting and ongoing refinement against real outcomes.
A considered minimum, not a fixed menu.
Every engagement here starts with a conversation, not a price list: a single-discipline retainer for an independent studio and a full-service programme for a multi-market practice are genuinely different pieces of work. What does not change is the minimum engagement, so you can budget before we speak.
£1,800
+VAT / Month
The minimum engagement for a single discipline, covered properly: strategy, original content, channel management and plain-language reporting. Every piece of it is made by the person you brief, with no account layer and nothing handed down to a junior.
AED 12,000
/ Month
The regional market rate rather than a premium on the UK figure. Expectations here are higher, particularly on production. Meeting them means studio-grade capture, bilingual support where a campaign calls for it, first-hand access to the Gulf design calendar, and a deliberately shorter client list so the attention is genuine.
Every retainer is scoped and quoted individually after a short discovery call. These are minimums rather than packages, and most partnerships sit above them. If a retainer is more than you want to commit to yet, start with the audit: a fixed two-week piece of work at £1,200+VAT, credited in full against your first month.

Not just a marketer: an editor, too.
Every brief is shaped by first-hand access to the design world. I also edit martynwhite.co, an independent journal of architecture, interiors, art and collectible design, and cover Dubai Design Week, Downtown Design and Milan Design Week in person. Coverage there is never part of a commercial arrangement.
AI Visibility FAQ
What is AI visibility, exactly?
It’s the practice of making sure AI platforms (ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google AI Overviews and similar tools) can find, understand and accurately describe your practice when someone asks them a question your future client might ask.
How is this different from traditional SEO?
Traditional SEO earns rankings in a list of links. AI visibility earns a mention, a citation or a recommendation inside a generated answer, which depends on different signals: structured data, clear factual content, and credible sources that reference your work.
Can you guarantee we’ll be mentioned by ChatGPT?
No, and any agency that promises that isn’t being straight with you. What I can do is strengthen every signal these platforms draw on: accurate structured content, credible citations, and consistent representation of your practice across the web.
Do we need this if we already do SEO with you?
It’s a genuinely different discipline, though a related one. Many clients run it alongside a core SEO retainer since the two reinforce each other. It also works as a standalone engagement for practices that already rank well but want to understand and improve how AI platforms represent them.
