Use Specific, Citable Facts and Numbers

LLMs prefer to quote concrete, falsifiable claims over vague marketing language - replace superlatives with real numbers.

A specific, falsifiable number is inherently easier for a language model to extract and repeat than a superlative adjective, because it can be checked. Auditing your homepage and product pages for vague claims and swapping them for real figures - pricing, limits, counts - directly increases how often that page gets quoted rather than paraphrased away.

Why it matters for AEO. LLMs strongly prefer to quote concrete, falsifiable claims ("tracks 50-500 prompts across 4 LLMs", "$19/mo Starter plan") over vague marketing language ("industry-leading", "powerful"), because concrete numbers are easier to extract and lower-risk to repeat.

How to do it

  1. Replace vague superlatives on your homepage and product pages with specific numbers: pricing, plan limits, response times, supported integrations, dataset sizes.
  2. Attribute non-obvious stats to a source - your own data, or a named study - so the model can cite it with confidence instead of treating it as an unverifiable claim.
  3. Keep a single source of truth for frequently cited numbers, such as pricing, and update it everywhere at once - contradictory numbers across pages actively suppress citation.
  4. Search your own site for words like "leading", "best-in-class", and "powerful", and replace at least the homepage instances with a real number or fact.

How to verify. Grep your site copy for superlatives and confirm each has been replaced, or paired, with a specific number.

Example

"Runs 50-500 of your prompts across ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity,
and Gemini on a schedule" instead of
"the most powerful AI visibility platform".

Frequently asked questions

Quick answers about use specific, citable facts and numbers.

LLMs prefer to quote concrete, falsifiable claims over vague marketing language - a specific number is easier for a model to lift and attribute than a superlative.

Replace 'the fastest tool on the market' with a specific, sourced number like '50,000 requests processed per day across our customer base'.

Yes - a stale specific number that's since become wrong is worse than a vague claim, since it can be directly contradicted by a competitor's page or your own updated stats.
