What we check
Schema Markup
JSON-LD structured data: Organization, FAQPage, Article, Product schemas. AI engines use these to understand and cite your content.
LLMs.txt
/llms.txt is the AI equivalent of robots.txt — it tells AI engines what your product does and which pages to index.
AI Crawler Access
We simulate GPTBot, ClaudeBot, PerplexityBot, and 5 other AI crawlers to check if they can actually reach your site.
Generative engines do not rank ten links — they compose one answer and cite a few sources. Getting into that answer depends less on classic ranking factors and more on whether a model can retrieve your page, identify your business, and lift a clean, quotable statement out of it.
This checker scores the three signals that gate all of that, then shows you which one is holding you back.
Whether GPTBot, ClaudeBot, PerplexityBot and Google-Extended are allowed in robots.txt. Blocked bots cannot cite you at all — this is the first thing to fix.
Whether your pages carry schema an engine can parse: Organization, FAQPage, Product. Without it a model has to infer what you do from prose, and often gets it wrong.
A plain-text file at your root that points models at your most useful pages. It is the newest of the three signals and still rare, so it is often the cheapest win.
A perfect score here means engines can cite you. It does not prove they do. Those are separate measurements, and conflating them is the most common mistake in AI visibility work.
Actual citation is measured by running real buyer-intent prompts against each engine and counting how often your brand appears versus competitors — across engines, countries and time. That is what a MentionShare score tracks, and what the Fix Generator writes content against once the gaps are known.
A GEO (Generative Engine Optimization) checker tests whether AI engines can actually read and cite your site. It looks at the technical signals engines depend on — structured data that describes your business, an llms.txt file that points models at your key pages, and whether AI crawlers such as GPTBot, ClaudeBot, PerplexityBot and Google-Extended are allowed in your robots.txt. If those signals are missing, engines can visit your site and still have nothing quotable to work with.
In practice yes. AEO (Answer Engine Optimization) and GEO describe the same goal from different angles — being the answer an AI engine gives rather than a blue link. The underlying checks are identical: can the engine reach your pages, parse who you are, and extract a clean answer to quote.
Two different questions, and both matter. This checker measures readiness — whether the engines can access and understand your site at all, which is the precondition for being cited. Measuring actual mentions means running real buyer-intent prompts against each engine and counting how often you appear, which is what a TrueCite account does across nine engines on a schedule.
No. Enter a domain and you get a score immediately, with no sign-up. Results are cached for 24 hours per domain, and checks are rate limited per IP so the tool stays free and fast for everyone.
When an AI engine answers a buying question it usually names a handful of vendors and links a few sources. If you are not among them you are invisible for that question, regardless of where you rank in traditional search. That traffic never appears in your analytics as a lost click — it simply never happens, which is why AI visibility has to be measured directly.
Start with crawler access, because nothing else matters if engines are blocked: allow the AI bots in robots.txt. Then add Organization and FAQPage structured data so engines can state what you do, and publish an llms.txt file pointing at your highest-value pages. Those three moves resolve most low scores.
The free check tells you whether engines can cite you. A TrueCite account runs real prompts across nine AI engines, shows which competitors are named in your place, and generates the content fixes to change that.
