The AI-era SEO audit

Get cited by ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity
and Google AI Overviews.

Classic SEO checkers like Seobility, Ahrefs and Semrush grade you for the 2015 ten-blue-links Google. We grade you for the seven engines that actually mediate search in 2026: Google, AI Overviews, ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, Gemini and Copilot. Free, sourced, every finding shows its evidence.

§01 · The AI-search layer

Six checks no traditional SEO tool runs.

AI-mediated search is a different surface with different ranking signals. Here is what we grade that Seobility, Ahrefs and Semrush do not.

01

AI Overview citability

We test the same answer-extraction patterns Google's SGE pipeline rewards: passage-shaped H2s, factual density, TL;DR blocks above 800px.

02

llms.txt + crawler access

Most sites silently block GPTBot, ClaudeBot or PerplexityBot. We crawl your robots.txt and headers and tell you exactly which AI engines can read you.

03

Schema for LLM extraction

Article, Person, Organization and FAQ JSON-LD with sameAs edges to Wikidata, LinkedIn and Crunchbase. This is how LLMs build entity links.

04

Answer-engine answerability

We score whether the first 200 words of each page directly answers the query, and whether your H2s are phrased as questions Claude and ChatGPT actually receive.

05

GEO entity coverage

Generative Engine Optimization. Does the page name the entities, products and people LLMs need to disambiguate you from competitors with similar names?

06

E-E-A-T author entities

Person schema with credentials, sameAs links, jobTitle, knowsAbout. The signal Google's quality raters and LLM training pipelines now weight heaviest.

§02 · How we stack up

Built for 2026, not 2015.

Seobility, Ahrefs and Semrush are excellent at the surface they were built for: classic Google organic search. None of them grade you for the AI engines that now sit above those results.
