Jacki DeVries

FireUp AIO

Jacki DeVries is the founder of FireUp AIO, an AI search optimization consultancy that helps established businesses become the ones AI recommends when buyers use tools like ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google AI Overviews to decide who to trust and hire. With 15 years in search strategy, including work alongside industry leader Neil Patel, Jacki built the proprietary FIREUP Framework, a six-pillar system that maps how AI evaluates and recommends businesses.

She is known for translating complex search changes into clear, ethical, measurable strategy for founders and growth teams who are done with hype-driven agencies and reports that do not deliver. Her work helps brands become discoverable by design, earning visibility that compounds over time. Based in Grand Rapids, Michigan, Jacki works with established U.S. and Canadian businesses ready to be found, cited, and chosen in the AI-driven era.
