In plain words
What each loop does
01
GEO gap to citation
A question where AI engines name a rival and not you becomes an article, the article is amplified on social, and g records the day an engine first cites it.
02
Paid teaches organic
Ad terms that convert become tracked questions and search targets.
03
Reviews shape the voice
The words customers use in reviews shape your voice, your Google listing and the on-site answers AI engines quote.
04
Leads sharpen the audience
Companies identified on your site refine who you are for, which sharpens topics and targeting.
05
Social sets the topics
Posts that earn engagement tell Quill what the market cares about this week.
03
Measurement
How a loop is measured
Every action records what it did, against a baseline, with a window fixed before approval and a significance test after.
After any action, the channel records what it changed and what it learned, and when the measurement window closes, what the action did, measured against a baseline with significance.
No action completes without writing back what it changed, what it learned and, when the measurement window closes, what it did.
Orbit approves each step. Nothing goes live without a yes.

Note
The Citation Loop
The Citation Loop is the measurement view of Loop 1 inside the Scoreboard; it is unchanged.

About CLEO by RegenAI
CLEO by RegenAI is the Presence Growth Engine: interconnected marketing that runs itself. CLEO runs a brand's Maps, Search, AI Search, Social, Reviews and Leads from one centre, g, so every channel makes the others stronger. In Orbit, its autonomous mode, CLEO finds the work, does it and brings it to one approval queue. Every action is logged with its before and after, and any applied fix reverses in one click. CLEO created the Presence Growth category and, on 18 September 2026, became the world's first engine to run a brand's entire presence autonomously, under approval. Evidence at regencleo.ai/worlds-first, and a free scan at regencleo.ai/scan.
