AI Search Visibility Score
The AI Search Visibility Score analyzes your entire domain to determine how well-positioned you are for AI-powered search engines like ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google's AI Overviews. As traditional search evolves into conversational AI interfaces, your visibility score indicates whether AI systems can discover, understand, and cite your content.
This comprehensive tool checks six critical factors: crawlability by AI bots, indexability signals, content structure, entity recognition, citation patterns, and content freshness. Each factor is scored independently and combined into an overall visibility score from 0-100, giving you a clear picture of your AI search readiness.
Unlike traditional SEO tools that focus on keywords and backlinks, this tool evaluates the signals that matter for AI systems: clear answer structures, proper semantic markup, authoritative citations, and AI crawler accessibility. It's essential for any website that wants to maintain visibility as search transitions from blue links to AI-generated answers.

Frequently Asked Questions
What's a good AI visibility score?
A score above 70 is good, indicating AI systems can effectively discover and understand your content. Scores 50-70 need improvement in key areas. Below 50 suggests significant visibility issues that could prevent AI citations.
How is this different from traditional SEO scores?
Traditional SEO focuses on keywords, backlinks, and Google algorithms. AI visibility focuses on structured content, semantic clarity, crawler accessibility for AI bots, and citation-worthiness. Both matter, but AI visibility is crucial for the future of search.
Which AI search engines does this check?
We check visibility for ChatGPT (GPTBot), Perplexity (PerplexityBot), Claude (ClaudeBot), Google's AI features (Google-Extended), and other major AI crawlers. The score reflects your overall AI search readiness.
How often should I check my AI visibility score?
Check monthly if you're actively optimizing, or quarterly for maintenance. Major changes like redesigns, CMS migrations, or robots.txt updates should trigger immediate checks to ensure AI access isn't accidentally blocked.
