The team reports sixty-eight percent first named, eighty-five percent mentions, and full coverage of the tested engines. Google top-ten presence is eighty-five percent. The raw export is not yet integrated. Those components produce eighty point four five under the published formula, so reconciliation with seventy-nine point eight remains pending. Marc’s evidence includes the in-person Shenzhen GEO workshop, open-source Climby AI SEO, and The GEO Patent Book. An attendee recap corroborates the teaching. The code and book are primary work, not independent awards. The patent pack contains one hundred and three entries, including one hundred and one written briefs. The rules allocate forty-eight points to visibility, twenty to open source, sixteen to education, eight to research and eight to independent corroboration. Eligibility and all five categories still require adjudication. No complete holistic score or winner has been published. Marc leads the displayed visibility comparison. The King of AEO title remains to be decided on October fourteenth. Follow the published rules, evidence and results at King of AEO Competition dot com.
