[ About CiteWorks Studio ]
[ About CiteWorks Studio ]
CiteWorks Studio is an AI research and generative engine optimization (GEO) firm focused on understanding how large language models retrieve and cite information.
Modern AI systems such as ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, and Perplexity increasingly function as the primary interface for information discovery. Instead of ranking web pages like traditional search engines, these systems generate answers by retrieving and synthesizing knowledge from multiple sources.
CiteWorks Studio studies this transformation and helps organizations understand:
• how AI systems determine trusted sources
• how citation patterns appear inside AI-generated answers
• how knowledge graphs influence model responses
• how organizations become trusted references in generative search systems
Our research focuses on AI citation intelligence, LLM retrieval systems, and generative search benchmarking.
