The platform

One platform. Four ways to win AI search.

Start free, then go as deep as your growth demands, from a one-minute scan to fully managed optimisation.

Measured. Explainable. Actionable.

Most “AI visibility” tools hand you a number with no explanation. We built ours the way enterprise teams expect: every score traceable to evidence.

From invisibleTo understoodTo recommended

Measured

Every check cites its evidence: your HTML, robots.txt, schema, PageSpeed, domain records, Wikidata and OpenStreetMap.

Explainable

Published weights and rubrics. AI-estimated checks show confidence, and unknowns are labelled, never guessed.

Actionable

Fixes are ranked for your type of business, weighted towards quick wins, with the why and the how for each.

Solutions by industry

Built for how your buyers ask

AI engines weigh different signals for a clinic than for a SaaS company. Our recommendations adapt to your category.

Your buyers ask

“Who's the most reliable plumber near Koramangala open on Sundays?”

Answer engines lean on maps data, consistent business details and reviews to pick 2–3 local names.

What we fix

  • LocalBusiness schema with geo, hours and service area
  • Consistent name, address and phone across site, Google, OSM and directories
  • Service-and-price FAQ pages per location

Why it matters

What is Answer Engine Optimization (AEO)?

AEO is the practice of making your business easy for AI assistants to find, understand, trust and cite. Buyers now ask ChatGPT, Gemini or Perplexity “who's the best dentist near me?” and act on the one answer they get. If AI can't read your site or verify your business, you aren't in that answer.

Traditional SEO ranks you in a list of links. AEO gets you named in the answer, by adding AI crawler access, machine-readable business facts, question-and-answer content and independent proof of credibility.

What is AEO (Answer Engine Optimization)?

AEO is the practice of making your business easy for AI answer engines such as ChatGPT, Google Gemini, Perplexity, Microsoft Copilot and Google AI Overviews to find, understand, trust and cite. Where SEO targets ranked links, AEO targets being the answer, or one of the sources quoted in it.

How is the AEO score calculated?

We run 50+ checks across six weighted categories: AI Search Readiness (20%), Content & Answerability (20%), Structured Data (18%), Technical SEO (16%), Business Profile (13%) and Brand Authority (13%). Each check is labelled Measured (directly observed from your site or public data) or Estimated (AI judgment of your content). The full method is published on our methodology page.

Is the audit really free?

Yes. The instant audit is free with no sign-up. If you want a deeper audit, competitor analysis or done-for-you optimisation, you can request a quote at the end of your report.

Can I audit a Google Maps business listing?

Yes. Paste your Google Maps place link. We read the business name and location from the link, look up the listing in public map data to find your website, and audit both. Google ratings and review counts need the paid Places API, so they're covered in the detailed audit.

Does this tool check whether ChatGPT actually mentions my business?

The free audit measures the signals that make AI engines able and likely to cite you. Live testing of real prompts across ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity and AI Overviews is part of the paid Detailed Audit and Competitor Analysis.

How is AEO different from SEO?

SEO and AEO share foundations (crawlability, quality content, authority). AEO adds an emphasis on AI crawler access, structured data, clearly stated entity facts, question-and-answer content and third-party corroboration, because AI engines synthesise answers instead of listing links.

Should I block AI bots like GPTBot?

It's a business decision. Blocking training crawlers (GPTBot, Google-Extended, CCBot) protects content from model training but can reduce how well models know your brand. Blocking AI search crawlers (OAI-SearchBot, PerplexityBot) removes you from their live answers. Most businesses that want visibility should allow the search crawlers at minimum.
