Website AI Readiness Score

This scores a website for AI search — whether ChatGPT, Perplexity and Google AI Overviews can crawl, parse and cite it. It is not an enterprise AI maturity assessment of your data, teams or internal processes.

What is AI Readiness?

AI Readiness measures how effectively your website can be discovered, understood, and cited by generative AI search engines. Unlike traditional SEO, AI readiness evaluates your site across 11 dimensions including AI crawlability, structured data, citation readiness, and agent-friendliness.

A high AI Readiness score means your site is more likely to appear in AI-generated answers, be cited by ChatGPT and Perplexity, and show up in Google AI Overviews.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I make my website AI ready?

Start with three things a crawler can see without running JavaScript: allow GPTBot, ClaudeBot, PerplexityBot and Google-Extended in robots.txt; publish an llms.txt file at your domain root; and add Organization plus WebSite JSON-LD so AI engines can resolve who you are. Then make sure each key page states its answer in the first sentence under a clear heading — AI engines extract passages, not whole pages.

How do I check if my website is crawlable by AI bots?

Fetch yourdomain.com/robots.txt and look for Disallow rules matching GPTBot, ClaudeBot, PerplexityBot, Google-Extended or CCBot. A broad Disallow: / aimed at training crawlers also blocks the search and answer crawlers that decide whether you appear in AI answers. GeoScore checks 20 AI crawlers across three priority tiers and reports exactly which ones your robots.txt blocks — try the robots.txt AI crawler checker.

How can I tell if my website is visible in AI search?

Traditional analytics will not show it, because AI answers often produce no click. Measure it three ways: watch server logs for GPTBot and PerplexityBot hits, ask ChatGPT or Perplexity about your category and see whether your brand appears, and track impressions in Google Search Console for AI Overviews related queries. A GEO audit covers the technical half — whether AI engines can reach, parse and attribute your content at all.

Why is my website not showing up in ChatGPT answers?

The usual causes, in order of frequency: a robots.txt rule blocking the AI crawler, content that only renders after JavaScript runs, no structured data telling the model what the page is about, and no third-party sources mentioning your brand. Language models cite pages they can fetch, parse and corroborate. Crawlability and schema are the part you control directly.

How do I get my website cited by AI search engines?

Being fetchable is necessary but not sufficient. AI engines tend to cite sources that answer a question directly in the first sentence, carry clear authorship and dates, are corroborated elsewhere on the web, and use schema that makes claims machine-readable. Original data, named examples and specific numbers get quoted far more often than general advice.

What is a good AI readiness score for a website?

GeoScore rates 0 to 100 across 11 dimensions. 86 and above means AI engines can reach, parse and attribute your content with few blockers. 68 to 85 is a solid foundation with specific gaps. 36 to 67 means AI engines will struggle to understand the site. Below 36 the site is close to invisible to AI search. The score is diagnostic — it measures readiness, not guaranteed placement.
