AI search visibility test
GEO/AEO Readiness Checker
Find out if ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini and Google AI Overviews can actually read, trust and cite your page.
Free. No sign-up. Analyzes the raw HTML that AI crawlers see.
How the GEO/AEO Readiness Checker works
AI answer engines do not rank pages the way a classic search engine does. ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, Claude and Google AI Overviews retrieve passages, judge whether a source is clear and trustworthy, and cite the pages they can parse and quote with confidence. This checker fetches your page the way most AI crawlers do, without running JavaScript, and scores how ready it is to be found, understood and cited.
What the checker looks at
- AI crawler access: whether your robots.txt lets GPTBot, OAI-SearchBot, ClaudeBot, PerplexityBot and Google-Extended reach the page.
- Raw HTML visibility: whether your main content exists before JavaScript runs. Many modern sites look complete in a browser but appear almost empty to AI crawlers.
- Structured data: the schema types that help engines identify who you are and what the page is about.
- Answer-ready structure: a direct answer near the top, question-led headings, lists and tables that are easy to quote.
- Entity and trust signals: authors, dates, sources and consistent brand references.
- Freshness and discoverability: llms.txt, sitemap, canonical tags and recent updates.
How to read your score
Each category is weighted by how strongly it affects whether an AI engine can use your page. A score of 80 or above means the fundamentals are in place. Anything below 60 usually points to a blocking issue, such as crawlers being disallowed or content that only appears after JavaScript loads. Fix those first, because no amount of content polish helps if the engine cannot read the page.
What to do after you check
A score is a starting point, not a strategy. Unblocking a crawler or adding schema can take an afternoon, but earning steady citations means tracking which prompts mention your brand, refreshing pages as answers change and strengthening your entity signals month after month.

Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between GEO and AEO?
Answer Engine Optimization (AEO) focuses on structuring content so engines can lift a direct answer from it. Generative Engine Optimization (GEO) is the broader work of making your brand a source that generative AI tools retrieve, trust and cite.
Why does raw HTML matter for AI search?
Most AI crawlers fetch the HTML your server sends and do not run JavaScript. If your content loads client-side, those crawlers may see little or nothing to cite.
Does a high score guarantee AI citations?
No. The score measures technical and structural readiness. Citations also depend on topical authority, brand mentions across the web and how well your content answers real questions.
Is this tool free?
Yes. There is no sign-up and no limit beyond a fair-use rate limit.
