What the AEO scan checks

Four signals that decide
whether AI cites you

Answer Engine Optimization (AEO), also called Generative Engine Optimization (GEO), is how you get surfaced in AI answers instead of buried below them.

AI crawler access

Can the AI engines even read you?

If your robots.txt blocks GPTBot, ClaudeBot, PerplexityBot or Google-Extended, you literally cannot appear in those engines' answers. We check every major AI crawler.

  • GPTBot, OAI-SearchBot, ChatGPT-User
  • ClaudeBot + PerplexityBot
  • Google-Extended (Gemini) + CCBot

Structured data

Does AI understand your content?

Schema.org markup is how AI parses what your page is about. We check for Organization, Article, Product and FAQ structured data.

  • JSON-LD detection
  • Organization + Article schema
  • Schema type coverage

Authority signals

Does AI trust you enough to cite?

AI weighs authorship and discoverability. We check for llms.txt, author markup and Open Graph, the E-E-A-T signals AI engines reward.

  • llms.txt presence
  • Author / Organization markup
  • Open Graph completeness

Why AEO, why now

Search is moving from links to answers.

AI Overviews, ChatGPT search and Perplexity answer the question before the user ever clicks. AEO is how you stay in the conversation.

Zero-click is the norm

Most searches now end without a click. If AI answers and doesn't cite you, you're invisible.

AI crawlers are opt-in

Many sites accidentally block AI crawlers in robots.txt. One line can erase you from AI answers.

Structured data wins

Schema.org markup is the language AI uses to understand and attribute content. Most sites under-use it.

FAQ schema is gold

FAQPage structured data is one of the strongest signals for being pulled into AI answers and PAA boxes.

llms.txt is emerging

The new standard for guiding AI crawlers to your best content. Early adopters get an edge.

Track all four engines

AEO scan, common questions

An AEO score measures how ready your website is to be cited by AI answer engines like ChatGPT and Perplexity. - Checks whether AI crawlers can access your site - Measures structured data and schema coverage - Scores how extractable your content is into answers - Combines into a single 0-100 readiness score
AEO and GEO are about ranking in AI answers; SEO is about ranking in traditional search results. - SEO: blue links in Google and Bing - AEO (Answer Engine Optimization): being cited in AI answers - GEO (Generative Engine Optimization): the same idea, different name - All three overlap, but AEO needs structured data and AI crawler access
The free AEO scan fetches your homepage, robots.txt and llms.txt, then checks the signals AI engines use to read and cite you. - AI crawler access (GPTBot, ClaudeBot, PerplexityBot, Google-Extended) - Structured data and schema types - FAQ schema, headings and lists - Authority signals like llms.txt and author markup
The most common reason is blocking AI crawlers in robots.txt, often by accident. - A Disallow rule for GPTBot or Google-Extended removes you from those engines - No structured data means AI struggles to understand your content - Thin or unstructured content is hard to extract into answers
Yes, the AEO scan is completely free with no credit card required. - See your AEO score and top issues instantly - Sign up free to unlock the full fix list - Upgrade only if you want ongoing AI-visibility tracking
