AI Crawler Checker →
Inspect whether AI crawlers (GPTBot, ClaudeBot, Perplexity, Bytespider) are permitted to index your site or blocked by robots.txt directives.
How It Works
Scrapes website text without AI to extract clean metadata and content, asks Gemini to generate the top 10 real-world commercial & informational search queries, and tests each query against Gemini with Google Search Grounding to identify live citations, brand mentions, and competitor sources.
Formula & Technical Methodology
AI Visibility Score = (Direct Citations × 10 + Brand Mentions × 5) / (Total Queries × 10) × 100%. Graded from A+ (80%+) to F (<20%).
When Should You Use This Tool?
Audit your Generative Engine Optimization (GEO) performance, benchmark brand visibility in AI answers, and uncover competitor citations.
Practical Example
For a clinic or SaaS website, automatically generates 10 high-intent queries (e.g., "pricing in 2026", "best clinic in city") and checks live AI citation status.
Frequently Asked Questions
- What is an AI Visibility Score and how is it calculated?
- An AI Visibility Score measures the percentage of high-intent user queries where AI search models (Gemini, ChatGPT Search, Perplexity) directly cite your website as an authoritative source or name your brand in synthesized answers.
- What is Generative Engine Optimization (GEO)?
- Generative Engine Optimization (GEO) is the practice of optimizing web content so that Large Language Models (LLMs) and conversational search engines retrieve, trust, and cite your domain in AI-generated overviews.
- How does Gemini decide which websites to cite in Search Grounding?
- Google Gemini favors pages that demonstrate high information gain, Schema.org structured data, direct answers to conversational questions, and consistent entity consensus across authoritative web platforms.
- Why are competitor domains cited instead of my official site?
- AI search engines favor competitor sites or review directories when those domains offer clearer structured data, concise comparisons, transparent pricing tables, or stronger domain entity authority.
