AI-Readiness Score
The AI-Readiness Score is a free audit that measures how prepared your site is for AI answer engines. Enter a URL, get a deterministic 0-100 score across 10 weighted categories - with a why-it's-low, how-to-fix note and evidence on every finding.
What does this tool do?
What it is: Measures how ready your site is for AI answer engines (ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini) with a 0-100 score and a full report card across 10 weighted categories.
Why it matters: AI engines already answer your customers' questions; sites that are not picked as sources simply never appear in those answers. The first step of any GEO work is an honest snapshot of where you stand.
What it looks at: Bot access, structured data, citable content, brand clarity, trust signals, technical health, off-site authority, archive history and presence in search indexes.
Why does AI visibility matter now?
- 87.4% of AI referral traffic comes from ChatGPT, and those visitors convert at twice the rate of traditional sources (Conductor, 2026).
- AI Overviews cut classic organic clicks by 34.5% (Ahrefs, 2025).
- Princeton research shows that adding sources, statistics and quotations to content boosts visibility in AI answers by up to 40% (arXiv, 2023).
If AI isn't recommending you, it's recommending a rival.

You'll get the full category breakdown, with a fix for every finding.
What it measures
One URL in, a 0-100 score out. Eight weighted, deterministic categories, each explained line by line: why it's low, and exactly how to fix it - with evidence. Same input, same score - no black box.
The 10-category breakdown
AI crawl & render
Can AI read you at all? robots.txt permissions for every AI bot, plus a raw-HTML vs. rendered-content diff - AI crawlers don't run JavaScript.
Structured data / schema
JSON-LD presence and validity: Organization, Product, FAQPage, Article, Breadcrumb - validated against schema.org and rich-results rules.
Citability & structure
The highest-weighted category: definition sentences, statistics, quotations, sources, answer blocks, FAQ, heading hierarchy, lists and tables.
Entity & brand clarity
How clearly machines can tell who you are: title/H1 clarity, About page, NAP consistency, knowledge-graph readiness, sameAs links.
E-E-A-T & trust
Author bylines, visible dates, primary-source citations and freshness - content under 3 months old is cited 3× more.
Technical & performance
Speed, mobile fit, HTTPS, semantic HTML and canonical health.
Off-site authority
Wikipedia/Wikidata presence, authority mentions and Reddit footprint - external data, marked with its own confidence.
Meta & llms.txt
Titles, descriptions, social cards, robots hygiene and the llms.txt checkbox.
History & trust
Domain age, first Web Archive snapshot, real-traffic presence (CrUX) and Tranco popularity rank - the trust signals search-grounded AI inherits from the classic web. External data with its own confidence.
Retrieval gate (search index)
Presence in the Brave search index (which answer engines pull from): are your pages indexed at all, and does your own domain win a search for your brand name? External data with its own confidence.
Low score? That's what we're here for.
Our team turns every red line into a fix - and keeps your visibility climbing.
