Best AEO and AI search agencies in the UK

What are the best AEO and AI search agencies in the UK?

The best UK options are Fame for flat-price B2B work, Omnius for London-based SaaS and fintech, Blend for professional services, Exposure Ninja for a full-service mix, Rise at Seven for content-led brands, and Spyndle for earned mentions. Only Fame and Blend publish a price, so expect to request quotes from the rest.

Fame publishes this list and sells Fame Search, so its first position is not neutral. Fame is fully remote, with most of the team based in London and the rest of the UK alongside the US, Canada and Australia. Details on others come from their own sites, except where we flag a third-party source.

Does a UK-based agency matter for AI search?

Sometimes. AI answers can vary by location, and tools such as Peec and Profound treat countries or regions as separate settings. So if UK buyers are your market, ask any agency whether it tracks from the UK and on UK spelling and terms. Other reasons to prefer a local partner are time zone, sterling invoicing and familiarity with UK trade press and directories.

It matters less if your buyers are mostly in the US, where a larger US specialist may have more relevant references. Being based in the UK also says little about skill, so weigh it after sector fit and scope. The table below sets out what each agency states about its UK presence.

Which UK AI search agencies should you shortlist?

1. Fame

Fame Search is $2,000 a month, one plan, for B2B companies of any kind. It runs weekly tracking across ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude and Gemini on agreed buyer questions, makes one site action a day, and sends a weekly summary email. Tom Hunt, Fame's CEO, manages the service. It is listed in US dollars, so check the sterling cost at current rates.

On its own site, from June 1 to an October 30, 2026 snapshot, Fame reports that 38-76% of tracked AI answers cite fame.so and 1,416 of 1,610 pages grade A. Those are self-reported numbers for Fame's own site, and it has no client results for this service yet.

Who it is not for: teams wanting an office-based UK account team, a link-building program or sector case studies today. Contract terms are not published.

2. Omnius

Omnius lists London as its headquarters, with Dubai and Belgrade too, and works exclusively with SaaS, fintech and AI companies. Its GEO service covers crawler access, schema, content restructuring, knowledge panels and authority building. It reports 2.7M organic visitors in 13 months for an unnamed AI SaaS client, a vendor figure that is about organic traffic rather than AI answers.

Price: not published.

Who it is not for: UK manufacturers, professional firms and any other B2B company outside its three verticals.

3. Blend

Blend has an office in Reading and another near Atlanta, and offers AEO built for professional services firms. It is the only UK-based agency here to publish sterling prices, which saves a round of calls. The source is Blend's own ranked article, and it places itself on its list, as Fame does here.

Price: Essential AEO from £6,000 a month, Advanced AEO from £11,000 a month, plus bespoke programs.

Who it is not for: SaaS or industrial companies wanting sector-native experience, and budgets under about £6,000 a month.

4. Exposure Ninja

Exposure Ninja has offices in London and Nottingham, with New York marked as coming soon. AI search optimization sits next to SEO, digital PR, paid, CRM, web and brand, and its site names B2B, finance, healthcare, legal, manufacturing and renewables as sectors. Accelex appears as a case study on organic growth ahead of an acquisition, without figures.

Price: not published.

Who it is not for: companies wanting a B2B-only AI search specialist. It is a broad, multi-service agency.

5. Rise at Seven

Rise at Seven is a search-first content agency with offices in Manchester, London and New York. AI Visibility & GEO is a named service, with digital PR and social search around it. It lists B2B marketing as an industry, featuring Dojo and Magnet Trade, and reports a 170%+ increase for Magnet Trade without saying of what on the page we reviewed. Consumer work is more prominent, with Sixt and JD Sports.

Price: not published.

Who it is not for: B2B companies that want a specialist in long sales cycles, or a small retainer without campaign work.

6. Spyndle

Spyndle earns brand mentions for B2B SaaS through guest articles, PR and Reddit. Its own site does not state a location. Rankscale's agency directory lists it as UK-based with 1-9 staff and a budget from $2,500, but that is third-party information we could not confirm on Spyndle's site. Its case study of $280K pipeline is vendor-reported.

Price: not published by Spyndle itself. Ask on a call.

Who it is not for: non-SaaS companies, or anyone who needs on-site technical work as the main job.

Which non-UK agencies do UK companies also consider?

Some specialists sell internationally and publish clear prices, which makes useful benchmarks even if you buy locally.

• Discovered Labs prices in euros, from €6,995 a month on a 6-month commitment. Monthly terms carry 30 days' notice.
• DerivateX says it runs engagements in the UK and Europe, among other regions, from $5,000 a month, for B2B SaaS only.
• FirstIndex lists $2,000 a month for software companies; its location is not stated on the homepage.

Use those numbers when judging UK quotes. A much higher figure may be justified by team size and off-site work, but ask to see that in the scope.

What should UK buyers ask?

1. Do you track answers from a UK location, and for UK phrasing of our buyer questions?
2. Which UK trade publications and directories do you see cited in our category?
3. Do you invoice in sterling, and what are the notice terms?
4. Do you have a UK B2B reference in a sector near ours?
5. Who at the agency actually does the work, and where are they?

How did we build this UK list?

We looked for agencies with a stated UK presence and a named AI search offer, then read their own websites on November 3, 2026. Spyndle's UK location is from a third-party directory and flagged as such. We looked at Wolfstone Digital, a Suffolk company, but its website only carries an email notice with no service details, so we left it out instead of relying on directory descriptions. We did not test any agency, and all results are self-reported. Fame is first because Fame publishes the list.
