Free AI Visibility Tool

AI Visibility Check

Score how ready a page is to be understood and cited by AI search, with prioritized fixes

We fetch your page server-side, parse the HTML, and run heuristic checks for entity clarity, structure, schema, and trust signals. We don't store the URL.

How it works

No black box. Here's exactly what AI Visibility Check checks.

  1. 1

    We fetch your page

    Server-side fetch with a sane timeout and User-Agent. We respect robots, don't store the URL, and never send your data to third parties.

  2. 2

    We extract the signals

    Title, meta, headings, structured data (JSON-LD), trust links, canonical, language, og: tags, and content depth, all parsed from the rendered HTML.

  3. 3

    We score against AI-citation criteria

    Entity clarity, topical positioning, content structure, schema, trust signals, crawlability, and meta alignment each contribute to a 0–100 score.

  4. 4

    You get prioritized fixes

    Recommendations are ordered by impact, so high-priority items come first. This is a readiness score from your page's own signals: it sends no prompts to any AI engine and does not show whether one cites you today.

Why this matters

AI engines like ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, and Google AI Overviews don't pick citations randomly. They look for specific signals that say "this is a real entity I can confidently quote." If those signals are weak or missing, your site gets passed over even when your content is genuinely better than the sites that do get cited.

  • Branded queries already drive AI traffic. Being absent from AI answers is increasingly the same as being absent from search.
  • AI engines trust structured data (JSON-LD), clear entity naming, and named topical sections far more than they trust marketing copy.
  • The same fixes that help AI engines also help Google's rich results and SEO snippets, so this work compounds.
  • Most fixes are on-page edits you control: a clearer H1, JSON-LD, About and Contact links, named sections. Re-run the check after each change to see the score move.

Frequently asked questions

What does this tool actually check?
It analyzes a single URL across 8 dimensions that affect how easily AI engines can understand and cite a page: brand and entity clarity, topical positioning, content structure (headings, depth, FAQs, lists), structured data (JSON-LD), trust signals (About / Contact / social profiles), crawlability (canonical, language, noindex), title and meta alignment, and authority hints (og:image, favicon, og:site_name). Each weights into a single 0–100 AI Visibility Score.
Does this query ChatGPT or Perplexity directly?
No. This free tool sends no prompts to any AI engine; it runs heuristic checks on your page's own signals. Paid CrawlTide plans measure real answers: they run prompts on ChatGPT, Google AI Overviews, Claude, Gemini, and Perplexity (via DataForSEO) and show which prompts mention your domain. Every paid plan covers all five engines; higher plans measure more prompts more often (Standard every 14 days, Pro weekly, Enterprise every 5 days). It's a paid feature because each test prompt costs money.
Why didn't my page score higher? It's well-written.
Well-written content is necessary but not sufficient. AI engines reward machine-readable signals: schema markup, single descriptive H1, named sections, og:site_name, About/Contact links, FAQ blocks. A great article with no schema and a generic title will still score lower than a mediocre article that gets the structure right. The recommendations show you exactly which signals to add.
Will fixing the recommendations actually help?
They make your page easier for AI engines to read and quote, and you can verify the score part yourself: fix the top 3 high-priority items, re-run this tool, and your score will move. A higher score is not a guarantee of citations. To see actual mentions, paid CrawlTide plans track a list of prompts across ChatGPT, Google AI Overviews, Claude, Gemini, and Perplexity on a regular schedule and show when your domain starts getting mentioned.
Do you store the URLs I check?
No. The check runs server-side, returns a result, and is gone. Nothing is persisted. You can use this on staging URLs, client sites, or competitor URLs without leaving a trail.
How is this different from a regular SEO audit?
A regular SEO audit grades you against Google's ranking factors: keywords, backlinks, page speed, etc. This tool grades you against the signals AI engines use to decide which sources to cite when generating an answer. The two overlap (schema, headings, trust signals matter for both) but the weighting is different. AI engines care about entity clarity and structured content far more than backlinks.
