What AI says about you, and why
Brand graders show what AI thinks of you. Technical scanners show broken checks. AEOScan is the only free audit that does both: live answers from ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini and Perplexity, the checks that explain them, and fixes you can paste. 30 seconds, no signup.

What we check
Real answers, real reasons, real fixes
AI crawler access
Plenty of sites block GPTBot, ClaudeBot and PerplexityBot without realizing it. Often it's a CDN setting, not robots.txt. We check both.
llms.txt and structured data
AI crawlers don't run JavaScript. We check whether your content, llms.txt and JSON-LD actually exist in the HTML they see.
Real AI answers
We ask ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini and Perplexity about your site and show you their unedited answers. No simulation, the real thing.
Fixes you can paste
Every failing check comes with the fix written out: a generated llms.txt, ready-made JSON-LD, and what to change where.
FAQ
Questions people ask
What is AEO?
Answer Engine Optimization: making your site readable and citable by AI assistants like ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini and Perplexity. SEO got you ranked on Google. AEO gets you mentioned in AI answers, which is where a growing share of buying decisions start.
How is AEOScan different from other AI visibility checkers?
Most tools do one half of the job. Brand graders ask AI engines about you but can't tell you why the answer is wrong. Technical scanners run checklists but never show what the engines actually say. AEOScan does both in one report: live, unedited answers from ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini and Perplexity, next to the technical checks that explain them — and the copy-paste fixes to change them.
How is the score calculated?
Weighted checks across six areas, with weights calibrated to published AI-citation research: AI crawler access, llms.txt, structured data, content structure, technical foundations and agent readiness. Pass earns full weight, warnings earn half, failures earn nothing. We also ask ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini and Perplexity about you and show their answers next to the score.
Do you really ask the AI assistants?
Yes. Every scan sends a live prompt to ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini and Perplexity (via their latest models) and prints their unedited answers. If they don't know your site, you'll see it in their own words.
Is the audit free?
The full audit, the AI assistant test, the competitor comparison and the generated fixes are free. Weekly monitoring with change alerts is a paid add-on you can start from any report.
