Author: Sacha September 16, 2026 Duration: 36:00
The way people discover brands is changing. Search is no longer just about ranking on Google, it’s increasingly about how your brand appears in AI-generated answers. In this episode of Uncomplicate It, I sit down with Leah Nurik, co-founder and CEO of Brandy AI, an AI visibility and Generative Engine Optimization (GEO) platform helping brands understand how they show up in an AI-generated world. We unpack what Generative Engine Optimization actually means, how it differs from traditional SEO, and why brands need to think beyond keywords and blue links. Leah explains that AI visibility isn’t only about getting mentioned. It’s also about how AI understands and represents your brand. Reviews, earned media, PR, social content, your website, and other third-party sources can all influence that picture. In this episode, we cover: - What GEO is and how it differs from SEO - Why SEO isn’t dead, it’s evolving - How AI determines brand credibility and authority - Why reviews, PR, content, and third-party sources matter - Why brands can’t “trick” their way into AI visibility - How GEO is changing the customer journey - Why clear, consistent brand messaging matters - The continued importance of human-created content - How marketing teams need to collaborate in the AI era - Why AI search could create opportunities for smaller brands One of the biggest takeaways? The algorithms may keep changing, but credibility, authority, transparency, authenticity, and brand purpose will continue to matter. If you’re a founder, marketer, or business owner trying to understand how your brand stays visible as search becomes increasingly AI-driven, this conversation will help uncomplicate what comes next. 🎙️ Leah Nurik on Uncomplicate It Connect with Leah: 💼 LinkedIn: Leah Nurik 🌐 https://mybrandi.ai/ Follow Us: 📸 Instagram: Uncomplicate It! ▶️ YouTube: Uncomplicated Marketing #UncomplicateIt #GEO #AIVisibility #AIMarketing #SEO #DigitalMarketing #BrandStrategy
