Free AI Readiness Audit
Run 47 server-side checks covering crawl access, metadata, structured data, content structure, and other observable page signals. The score is a readiness heuristic—not a live AI ranking, citation count, or revenue forecast.
Your AI Readiness Score
Based on Princeton KDD 2024 + AutoGEO ICLR 2026
Platform Citation Potential
How likely each AI engine is to cite your page, based on its specific requirements.
AI Crawler Accessibility
Whether major AI bots can actually reach and read your page.
Trust Stack
5-layer trust evaluation that AI engines use to decide if your content is worth citing.
Prioritized recommendations
Fix these in order — biggest impact on AI citation potential first.
What this result means
The score summarizes observable technical and content signals on the submitted page. It is not a measurement of AI recommendations, market share, pipeline, or revenue.
Use the recommendations as a technical checklist. Use a disclosed live-answer study to measure actual recommendation or citation behavior.

Run growth audit8 categories · 47 research-backed methods
Each category maps to real signals AI engines use when deciding what to cite. The scoring methodology is grounded in peer-reviewed research: Princeton KDD 2024 and AutoGEO ICLR 2026. Powered by geo-optimizer (MIT).
Robots.txt & AI Crawlability
27 AI bot permission checks across 3 tiers — GPTBot, ClaudeBot, PerplexityBot, Google-Extended, and more. If AI crawlers can't read your page, you can't be cited.
llms.txt
The LLM-friendly site summary file. We check for existence, structure, depth, sections, links, and companion files (llms-full.txt).
Schema / JSON-LD
Structured data types AI engines understand: WebSite, Organization, FAQPage, Article. Proper schema lifts LLM extraction accuracy from 16% to 54%.
Meta Tags
Title, description, canonical, Open Graph. AI engines often lift the meta description as the snippet preview before clicking through.
Content Quality
H1-H6 hierarchy, statistics (+33% AI visibility), citations, front-loading, lists/tables — the patterns AI engines lift verbatim into answers.
Brand & Entity
Brand name consistency, Knowledge Graph links (Wikipedia, Wikidata, LinkedIn, Crunchbase). AI engines need entity disambiguation to cite you confidently.
Technical Signals
HTML lang attribute, RSS/Atom feeds, dateModified freshness indicators. These tell AI engines your content is current and maintained.
AI Discovery Endpoints
Well-known AI endpoints: /.well-known/ai.txt, /ai/summary.json, /ai/faq.json. Emerging standards that help AI engines discover and understand your site.
Common questions about the AI Readiness Checker
Yes. The readiness audit is available without signup. It inspects observable technical and content signals; it does not query AI answers or predict rankings, traffic, or revenue.
The score is computed by geo-optimizer (MIT-licensed, v4.15.0), an open-source audit engine based on peer-reviewed research: Princeton KDD 2024 and AutoGEO ICLR 2026. It evaluates 47 research-backed methods across 8 categories — robots.txt, llms.txt, schema, meta tags, content quality, brand/entity, technical signals, and AI discovery endpoints. This is an on-page AI readiness assessment, not a measurement of actual AI traffic or citations.
Yes. Unlike browser-based tools that guess at scores, this tool runs a real server-side audit that fetches your page, checks robots.txt bot permissions, validates JSON-LD schema, analyzes content structure, tests AI crawler accessibility (GPTBot, ClaudeBot, PerplexityBot), and evaluates a 5-layer trust stack. The methodology is fully open-source and auditable on GitHub.
86-100 is Excellent, 68-85 is Good, 36-67 is Foundation (needs work), and 0-35 is Critical. Even top sites rarely score 100 — focus on fixing the prioritized recommendations first.
Yes. The tool works on any publicly accessible URL. Auditing competitors is a great way to benchmark where you stand and identify quick wins.
