Free AI Website Audit — Is Your Site Invisible to AI Search?

Answer Engine Optimization (AEO) is the practice of structuring your website content so that AI-powered search engines like ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google AI Overviews can easily understand, extract, and cite your content in their responses. Unlike traditional SEO which focuses on ranking in a list of links, AEO focuses on becoming the source AI engines quote directly.

The AIReady™ Score is a 0–100 rating that measures how well your website is optimized for AI search engines like ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude, and Google AI Overviews. It is calculated from 40+ technical and content signals including schema markup, entity clarity, FAQ structure, crawlability for AI bots, and content depth.

Yes. The audit is completely free — no account required, no credit card, and no strings attached. You submit your URL and contact details, and we deliver your AIReady™ Score plus a full 40+ checkpoint report within 24 hours.

To get cited by AI engines like ChatGPT and Perplexity, your site needs strong structured data (schema markup), clear entity signals, authoritative content, proper crawl access for AI bots (GPTBot, PerplexityBot), and well-structured FAQ or Q&A content. Our free audit identifies exactly which of these signals are missing from your site.

Traditional SEO (Search Engine Optimization) focuses on ranking your pages in Google's blue-link results. AEO (Answer Engine Optimization) focuses on getting your content cited inside AI-generated answers from tools like ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google AI Overviews, and Bing Copilot. Both matter — our audit covers both.

Our audit checks 40+ signals including: schema markup and structured data, AI bot crawlability (GPTBot, PerplexityBot, ClaudeBot), FAQ and Q&A structure, entity and authority signals, content depth and clarity, citation and link authority, RAG retrieval signals, and AEO answer optimization. You receive a prioritized fix list so you know exactly what to tackle first.

Your AIReady™ Score is affected by 40+ signals across five categories: technical crawlability (whether AI bots like GPTBot and PerplexityBot can access your site), structured data (schema markup, JSON-LD), content clarity (clear entity definitions, FAQ structure, direct answers), authority signals (backlinks, author credentials, E-E-A-T), and AI-specific signals (llms.txt, robots.txt directives for AI crawlers, RAG-friendly content formatting).

A score of 80 or above is considered strong — it means your site has the core technical and content signals AI engines need to find, understand, and cite you. Scores between 50–79 indicate moderate readiness with fixable gaps. Below 50 means significant issues are likely preventing AI engines from surfacing your content. Most sites we audit score between 35 and 65 before optimization.

An SEO score measures how well your site ranks in traditional search engines like Google’s blue-link results — focusing on keywords, backlinks, and page speed. An AIReady™ Score measures how well your site is optimized for AI-powered answer engines like ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google AI Overviews — focusing on structured data, entity clarity, direct answers, and AI bot accessibility. A site can have a high SEO score but a low AIReady™ Score, meaning it ranks well in Google but is invisible to AI search.

The fastest ways to increase your AIReady™ Score are: (1) add schema markup (Organization, FAQPage, Article, LocalBusiness), (2) allow AI crawlers in your robots.txt (GPTBot, PerplexityBot, ClaudeBot), (3) add an llms.txt file to help AI systems understand your site, (4) structure content with clear Q&A sections and direct answers, (5) strengthen author and entity signals for E-E-A-T, and (6) ensure your content is specific, citable, and well-organized. Our free audit tells you exactly which of these your site is missing.
