Founding cohortFounding GEO Certified Agencies — 2026
The founding cohort consists of the first organizations certified under the GeoAI Optimization GEO Standard v1.0. Organizations are listed here only after certification has been awarded.
Current status
Founding certification applications are open. No organizations have been certified yet, so none are listed. Listings appear here and in the agency directory as certificates are issued.
What founding agencies receive
- A founding certificate, with the founding year shown on the registry record
- The digital badge and live embed
- A public verification page and QR code
- An agency profile in the GEO Certified Agency Network
- Launch assets and approved announcement wording
- Inclusion in the founding cohort publication
- An invitation to comment on the next version of the Standard
Same bar, earlier
Founding agencies are assessed against exactly the same criteria as every later applicant. Founding status reflects timing, not a lower standard.
