What we measure

Seven checks for search, and one for the machines

Every scan runs the same fixed bar, grouped by the reader each check answers to.

Both readers

Search

Whether search engines can find, read and rank the page.

Security

Headers, TLS, and what an attacker sees first.

Compliance

Consent, policy pages, and the disclosures you owe.

Search engines

Backlinks

Who links to you, and whether those links carry weight.

Speed & visual

How fast it loads and how it renders at every size.

Answer engines

AI visibilityGEO

Whether answer engines cite you when they should.

Does it work

Links, forms and flows that fail silently.

Agentic BrowsingAEO

A factor, not a check: whether an AI agent can actually drive your site, reach the content and finish a flow, the way a browsing model would for someone.

AI visibility queries

  • ChatGPT
  • Perplexity
  • Claude
  • Google AI Overviews
  • Google AI Mode
  • Gemini
  • Copilot

10 questions each, on the full audit. It also measures your share of the answer.

Staying ready is the product

The scan is free. Keeping it true isn't automatic.

A score is a snapshot. Sites drift: a redesign drops a tag, a deploy breaks a form, a competitor out-cites you in AI answers. Watch re-runs this exact scan on a schedule and emails you a diff the moment a check moves, so you hear about a regression before your traffic does.

Questions, answered

The scan, in plain terms

01

What is a readiness audit?

  • An automated inspection of your live site against a fixed, published bar.
  • Seven areas: search, AI visibility, backlinks, security, compliance, speed, and whether your flows actually work.
  • Every check scores out of 100 and shows the evidence behind its verdict.
  • We read the site itself, never a form you fill in about it.
02

What is AEO (answer engine optimization)?

  • Getting cited inside an AI answer, not just ranked in a list of links.
  • The engines that decide it: ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude, Google's AI Overviews.
  • It needs crawlable HTML, passages an engine can quote, and a site an agent can navigate.
03

How is AEO different from SEO?

  • SEO earns a ranked link someone clicks. AEO earns a mention inside the answer itself.
  • They share foundations: crawlability, fast clean pages, signals worth trusting.
  • AEO adds extractable passages, machine-readable structure, and pages a browsing agent can traverse without breaking.
  • One pass measures both.
04

How often should I re-scan my site?

  • A scan is the state today, and sites drift.
  • A redesign drops a meta tag. A deploy breaks a form. A new page ships without structured data.
  • Re-scan after a redesign or a big deploy. Watch re-runs it for you every two weeks.
05

Do I need an account to run a scan?

  • No. A URL and nothing else.
  • We measure what any visitor or crawler would encounter, not what a form says about you.
06

Is the scan free?

  • Yes, and it stays that way.
  • Full audit, $19 once: every check opened to its evidence and its exact fix.
  • Watch, $29 a month: the same scan, re-run for you.
  • Neither changes how you are scored. Only how deep you see.
