Free AEO Audit Tool

Our AEO Audit Tool gives you a comprehensive Answer Engine Optimization report for any public URL. AEO is the practice of optimizing content for AI answer engines (ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude, Google AI Overviews) instead of (or alongside) traditional Google search. The signals that matter for AEO are different from classic on-page SEO: AI engines weight structure, entity clarity, and citability over keyword density and backlinks.

Under the hood we fetch your page server-side (so CORS does not block us), parse the HTML, check robots.txt for AI bot access (GPTBot, PerplexityBot, ClaudeBot, Google-Extended), detect JSON-LD schema, measure heading hierarchy, paragraph length, content-to-code ratio, list and table usage, factual density (stats, definitions, external citations), authority signals (author byline, publish date), and entity density. Each signal gets a 0 to 100 sub-score; the report combines them into an overall AEO score plus a ranked list of top fixes.

For SEO Practitioners

• Audit any client URL in one click and get a concrete checklist of AEO fixes
• Quickly spot critical blockers (blocked AI bots, missing schema, no direct answer) versus warnings versus nice-to-haves
• Use the per-signal scores to track AEO progress over time

For Content Teams

• See exactly which structural changes would boost your chance of being cited in AI answers
• Identify which schema types (FAQPage, Article, BreadcrumbList, Organization) you should add
• Get tactical recommendations: "break paragraphs into 40 to 60 word chunks," "add 2 to 3 outbound citations to authoritative sources," "add a 40 to 120 word direct answer in the opening paragraph"

Why Use Our AEO Audit Tool

• 11 signals, not 3: Most AI readiness tools score 3 or 4 superficial signals. Ours covers structure, schema, content, entity clarity, and question coverage with concrete sub-scores for each.
• Bot-block detection: Many sites accidentally block GPTBot, PerplexityBot, or ClaudeBot in robots.txt and never realize it. We flag this immediately because no other AEO signal matters if the bots cannot reach your page.
• Actionable fixes, not generic advice: Each issue includes the exact change to make (with character counts, word ranges, and schema type names) so the report doubles as a content brief.
• Free, no signup: No account required to run the audit. Run as many URLs as you want (subject to a fair rate limit).
