I engineer the systems that decide whether a business appears when someone asks an AI engine a question. 15+ years in search, now building at the frontier of AEO, GEO, and AI automation.
My focus is Answer Engine Optimization and Generative Engine Optimization — making content visible not just in traditional search, but inside the AI-generated answers from ChatGPT, Google AI Overviews, Perplexity, Gemini, and Copilot.
I don't just strategize AI search — I build the infrastructure that delivers it: a proprietary WordPress automation plugin running on the Claude API, a live SERP and Search Console dashboard, and an MCP server feeding structured client knowledge directly into Claude workspaces. Everything I publish is tested on real clients before it gets written down.
Structuring content so AI engines cite it directly — the new front line of visibility.
Engineering presence across ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, Copilot, and AI Overviews.
Custom tooling on the Claude & OpenAI APIs, MCP servers, automated content pipelines.
Audits, structured data, Core Web Vitals, and architecture — the foundation under it all.
The start of a 1,200+ site career — learning how the web actually works, line by line.
Web developer & SEO specialist — scale, SLA discipline, and ranking across 100+ verticals.
Built an agency around technical SEO and performance — 20+ active clients, Page 1 across the board.
Started engineering for AEO & GEO — built Lorphic Autopilot, lorphic.app, and a live MCP server.
Client content cited across five AI engines. The thesis, proven in production.
I highly recommend Kanan for any business owner needing a high-quality website. He recently delivered a professional site for my business, and the results are fantastic — his pricing is very competitive.
Kanan's expertise in web development is unparalleled. He brings websites to life with creative design, his attention to detail is remarkable, and he always goes the extra mile.
Kanan is a true professional. He genuinely wants to help other business owners grow their online presence. I recommend Kanan with Lorphic for any business looking to grow.
Backed by 30 Google reviews (5.0) and 40 Alignable recommendations.
Family is at the center of everything. Spending time with the people I love keeps me grounded and reminded of what actually matters beyond the work.
Outside of building Lorphic, I'm deeply curious about geopolitics, finance, and AI — not as hobbies, but as lenses I use to understand how the world moves. That same curiosity drives how I approach business, research, and every project I take on. I stay active, think independently, and believe character shapes outcomes more than any skill set.
Whether you're a brand fighting for AI visibility or a team that needs someone who can both strategize and build — I bring both.
