HeyFinders launches Vienna's first GEO‑first AI visibility agency
HeyFinders was co‑founded by Manuel Schmöllerl in Vienna on 30 July 2026, positioning itself as the city’s first GEO‑first agency. The firm targets mid‑size B2B companies across the DACH region and offers AI‑visibility services that combine GEO (Generative Engine Optimisation) and KI‑SEO strategies, content creation and technical optimisation. Its goal is to have client firms appear as the recommended answer in AI‑driven tools such as ChatGPT, Perplexity and Gemini, reflecting a shift from traditional search‑rankings to AI‑based recommendation.
Schmöllerl explained, “The companies that understand how AI selects information will be tomorrow’s winners,” and added, “AI‑visibility does not start at ChatGPT; it starts with the company itself.” HeyFinders stresses clear positioning, authoritative content and websites that are understandable to both humans and AI systems, aiming to establish Vienna as a hub for AI‑visibility in the German‑speaking market.
