The short answer
As of the last review of OpenAI's published documentation, there is no paid or organic mechanism to submit a company for guaranteed recommendations in ChatGPT. Really Good GEO's framework recommends publishing clear category information, direct answers, verifiable evidence, comparison context, and consistent entity details on accessible pages. This is our diagnostic recommendation for making a page a more credible citation candidate. It is not a promise that any specific AI system will retrieve or cite the page.

A practical process (Really Good GEO framework)
- Name the discovery questions. Use questions a buyer would ask before knowing your brand, not only “What is [company]?”
- Choose the right source page. Map each question set to a product, service, comparison, or research page with a clear purpose.
- Answer early. Put a concise, qualified answer near the top rather than burying it in promotional copy.
- Support the claim. Add method, specifications, examples, credentials, dates, or first-hand evidence.
- Explain fit and limits. State who the offer is for, when it is not suitable, and what alternative fits instead.
- Test repeatedly. Record search behavior, cited domains, and whether your brand appears across multiple runs.
What not to do
- Do not publish dozens of near-duplicate AI-written articles.
- Do not treat one branded citation as proof of category visibility.
- Do not invent statistics, reviews, credentials, or customer outcomes.
- Do not assume schema alone makes weak content authoritative.
