ChatGPT can't recommend a page it can't read

Check whether AI assistants can find, read and identify your site. Fourteen signals, measured directly against your pages and your robots.txt, with a plain statement of how many of them we could actually see.

Three things decide whether an assistant names you

Whether your pages can be quoted

Assistants lift specific, self-contained passages. We check whether your writing carries figures, answers questions directly, and states its point early enough to be picked up.

Whether the web knows who you are

Assistants resolve brands as entities, not strings. We check whether your brand resolves to an entity whose declared website is actually yours.

Whether their crawlers are allowed in

A site can be perfect and still be invisible because robots.txt turns the answer engines away. We read yours and name every crawler it blocks.

Frequently asked questions

What does the check actually do?

It fetches your pages the way an answer engine would, reads your robots.txt, and scores fourteen signals across three groups: whether your writing can be quoted, whether the web recognises your brand as an entity, and whether the answer engines' crawlers are allowed in.

Why is my score based on fewer than fourteen signals?

Because we only score what we could measure. A signal we could not read is left out of both the numerator and the denominator and named, rather than counted as a pass or a failure. The number of signals behind your score is printed next to it every time.

Why does it say a pillar is a dash instead of zero?

A dash means we could not see it; a zero would mean you did badly at it. Those are opposite claims and we never blur them, so an unmeasured group shows a dash.

Do I need an account?

Yes, and it is free. The check crawls the site you name, so we attach an account to it rather than pointing an anonymous crawler at somebody's web server on request.

How often can I check the same site?

Once every twelve hours per site. A check is a real crawl of somebody's web server, and re-running it on demand would make us the traffic problem rather than the measurement.

Does a score I do not like mean my site is bad?

It means assistants would struggle to quote it. The most common cause is a site that renders its text with JavaScript, which people see fine and answer engines mostly do not - a difference no ordinary analytics tool reports.
