Why We Exist
80% of B2B buyers now use AI tools for vendor research. Your brand needs to be the answer AI recommends.
Here's the reality: when a VP of Marketing asks ChatGPT "What's the best tool for X?", the companies it recommends win the deal before anyone picks up a phone. Your competitors are already showing up. The question is whether you are.
We started AnswerManiac because we saw a massive gap. Traditional SEO agencies don't understand how AI models select and cite sources. Generalist agencies treat AEO as a checkbox. Nobody was doing it right — building entity authority, structuring content for LLM consumption, and tracking citations across ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, and Claude simultaneously.
So we built the agency (and the platform) we wished existed. Our ANSWER Framework — Audit, Navigate, Structure, Write, Earn, Refine — is a proven 90-day methodology specifically designed for B2B SaaS companies in overlooked verticals. AI-referred traffic converts at 14.2% vs. 2.8% for organic. That's a 5x advantage most companies aren't capturing yet.
AEO-First, Not AEO-Added
Every tool, process, and deliverable is built for Answer Engine Optimization. We don't do general SEO with AEO sprinkled on top. Entity optimization, citation tracking, and knowledge graph presence are the core of everything we deliver.
The 18-36 Month Window
AI search is where SEO was in 2010 — early movers win disproportionate market share. The window to establish AI visibility dominance is 18-36 months before major agencies commoditize the space. We help you move now.
Meet the Minds Behind AnswerManiac
Strategy meets engineering. We don't just advise — we build.
Andrew is an entrepreneur and investor with 15+ years in private equity, SaaS, and e-commerce. He's the Founding CEO of AnswerManiac and currently serves as CEO of Lanteria HR (200K+ users across 40 countries) and Investment Director at Secways. In 2022, he acquired Lanteria three months after the Ukraine war started and turned a distressed asset into a growing platform — securing investment in 15 minutes and leading one of the most complex SaaS turnarounds in recent memory.
Previously co-founded Uniqbrow, a customizable eyewear brand in Barcelona (exited pre-pandemic), and spent five years at Hilco Global restructuring distressed retail companies. He launched AnswerManiac in November 2025 after watching his own portfolio brands struggle with AI invisibility. Based between Barcelona and Miami.
Faizan is Director & Head of Marketing at AnswerManiac and a full-stack developer. He built the AnswerManiac platform end-to-end — Next.js, TypeScript, Prisma, PostgreSQL, Tailwind. With 7+ years in SEO and digital marketing, he also serves as Marketing Director at Lanteria HR, giving him a front-row seat to how B2B SaaS companies actually buy and evaluate software.
He holds a Master's degree in Digital Marketing with AI from the University of South Wales and a BS in Computer Software Engineering. That mix of engineering and marketing is what makes AnswerManiac different — the person writing the code is the same person running the campaigns. He's the one making sure every AEO and GEO playbook actually ships — from citation asset production to AI visibility tracking across all five platforms.
