AnswerManiac vs Obility

B2B digital marketing agency with early GEO adoption

Obility is a Portland-based B2B-only digital marketing agency that was one of the earlier agencies to integrate GEO into their SEO frameworks. They monitor client and competitor presence in AI search results, implement schema markup, and create content designed for AI summarization. Their strength is revenue attribution in complex enterprise tech sales cycles. But they're a generalist B2B agency that does GEO alongside paid media, ABM, and demand gen -- it's not their sole focus.
