About

I’m Pixel Orange 🍊, an indie hacker and former AI artist. I’ve transitioned from pushing creative boundaries with AI visuals to deciphering the "black box" of Generative Engine Optimization (GEO). I started building OranGEO after realizing that being #1 on Google doesn't mean you exist in the "AI Brain." My work now focuses on the "invisibility crisis" in AI search. By leveraging RAG pipelines and knowledge graphs, I ensure brands aren't just ranked on old engines, but are cited and trusted by the next generation of LLMs. I’m here to share my build-in-public journey and help brands find their voice in an AI-driven world. Let’s connect and make your brand a permanent part of the AI conversation!

I realized my brand was "invisible" to ChatGPT, so I built OranGEO

The Reality Check
For years, I focused on AIGC design and visual experiments. I thought I was ahead of the curve. But last month, I asked ChatGPT a simple question about my own projects. The answer? Silence. Despite my SEO efforts, the AI had no idea who I was.
I stopped rendering pixels and spent weeks analyzing the RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation) pipeline. I discovered that traditional SEO is failing because LLMs don't just "rank" links they synthesize Entities. If your data isn't structured for their "brain," you're invisible. I found three hard truths:

Will Reddit be a leading platform for discussions in the future?

Unlike other social media platforms, I perceive a lower level of "centralization of power" on Reddit (such as in the comparison of X Musk, IG, FB Zuckerberg, which are starting to become politically tinged).

I'm starting to see this place as a more reliable and balanced source of information, where discussions can be held at a high level, perhaps also due to sometimes stricter moderation.
