What we check

Five things that decide if you get cited.

AI engines extract discrete, well-structured claims from pages they can reach and trust. The checker scores the signals that gate each step.

01 · Crawl access

Whether AI and search crawlers (GPTBot, PerplexityBot, ClaudeBot, Googlebot, Bingbot) can reach the page, the response is fast, and the content is in the initial HTML rather than rendered only by JavaScript.

02 · Structured data

Valid JSON-LD, an Organization or WebSite entity, and the right page-type schema (Article, FAQ, HowTo, Product) so engines can parse what the page is about.

03 · Meta and head

Title tag, meta description, canonical URL, Open Graph tags, and a declared language. The signals that frame how the page is summarized.

04 · Content structure

One clear H1, question-style headings, lists and tables, a key-takeaways block, and enough depth. This is what AI engines actually lift into answers.

05 · Authority and freshness

A named author and machine-readable dates. Named sources get cited more, and Gemini and Perplexity weight recency heavily.

FAQ

AEO, answered.

What is AEO?

AEO stands for Answer Engine Optimization. It is the practice of structuring a web page so AI answer engines like ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, Claude, and Copilot can find it, parse it, and cite it in their responses. It overlaps heavily with GEO, or Generative Engine Optimization.

How does the AEO checker work?

The checker fetches your page and scores public on-page signals across five categories: crawl access, structured data, meta tags, content structure, and authority and freshness. It returns a 0 to 100 readiness score and a ranked list of fixes. It reads only what is publicly available and stores no data.

Does a high score guarantee my brand gets cited?

No. A high score means the page is technically ready to be cited. Whether an engine actually cites you also depends on your authority, off-site presence, and how your content compares to competitors for a given query. This tool measures on-page readiness, not live citation.

What is the difference between this and the Zumi platform?

This free checker scans one page's on-page signals. The Zumi platform queries the AI engines directly and shows your brand's live AI Visibility Score across every engine, the exact prompts where you appear or do not, and how competitors rank against you.

Which AI engines does this matter for?

The same readiness signals apply across ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, Claude, Copilot, and Google AI Overviews. They all retrieve and extract from web pages, so clean structure, valid schema, and crawler access help across all of them.
