With a majority of consumers from all generations reporting using AI as a search engine, Blu Ocean Innovations, LLC announces the launch of the Tide Strategy, an AI Search Optimization framework helping professional service businesses gain visibility in ChatGPT, Gemini, and Grok.

-- According to a July 2025 report from Adobe Express, up to 77% of surveyed U.S. consumers now use ChatGPT as a search engine. This shift highlights a growing challenge for professional service businesses seeing traditional web traffic slow—an issue Blu Ocean Innovations seeks to address by helping business owners optimize their online presence for the criteria AI engines use.

This shift is not limited to one demographic. Adobe reports that 77% of Gen Z, 75% of Millennials, 80% of Gen X, and 74% of Baby Boomers surveyed use ChatGPT for search, with one-quarter of Gen Z starting their searches there instead of Google. As AI-led search becomes more common across age groups, companies that rely only on traditional SEO may struggle to appear where customers are now looking first.
The Tide Strategy from Blu Ocean Innovations can counteract this dynamic, helping law firms, medical practices, financial advisors, and other high-trust service providers become more visible in the AI-generated answers consumers increasingly rely on. Reputation is a critical trust signal in these sectors, and when consumers ask AI engines for recommendations, businesses need to earn a place in the answers those platforms choose to surface.
In this environment, where AI systems evaluate businesses on verifiable credibility signals, strategies built around keyword rankings and backlinks no longer suffice. The service from Blu Ocean Innovations utilizes Answer Engine Optimization (AEO), which prioritizes experience, expertise, authoritativeness, and trustworthiness - the criteria AI uses to find, verify, and recommend businesses.
The strategy encompasses the implementation of AEO through a three-phase framework, beginning with strengthening trust signals like Google Business Profile optimization, review growth, and NAP consistency across directories. The framework then amplifies market-wide trust by repurposing a company’s strongest credibility signals across social proof content, website trust sections, authority platforms, and press or citation outreach. Finally, it aligns the company’s digital footprint so AI-driven systems can better understand, trust, and recommend the business to users.
