What we check — 6 AEO pillars

  • Structured Data for AI

    Schema.org / JSON-LD markup (FAQ, HowTo, Article, Organization) lets AI engines extract and cite your facts accurately.

  • Answer-first Content

    Concise, direct answers placed right under question-style headings are what AI engines lift into their responses.

  • Content Structure

    Clear heading hierarchy, lists and tables make your content easy for AI to segment and quote.

  • AI Crawler Access

    AI engines can only cite pages they are allowed to read. Checks robots.txt for AI bots and the emerging llms.txt standard.

  • Entity & Authority

    Organization markup, sameAs links and clear authorship build the brand entity AI engines trust and reference.

  • Technical Trust

    HTTPS, titles, descriptions and freshness signals are baseline trust factors for being surfaced in AI answers.

Frequently asked questions

What is Answer Engine Optimization (AEO)?

AEO is optimizing your content so AI answer engines like ChatGPT, Perplexity and Google AI Overviews cite and mention your brand. Unlike SEO, success is measured by mentions and citations in AI answers, not by blue-link rankings.

Does AEO replace SEO?

No — AEO builds on SEO. Technical health, content quality and authority still matter; AEO adds structured data, answer-first formatting and entity signals that make your content easy for large language models to extract and quote.

Which AI engines does this audit check for?

It checks readiness for ChatGPT Search, Perplexity, Google AI Overviews, Claude and Copilot — including whether each engine's crawler (OAI-SearchBot, PerplexityBot, Claude-SearchBot, Googlebot, Bingbot) can actually reach your page, evaluated per RFC 9309.

Do I need an llms.txt file to rank in AI answers?

Not for citations. Large studies show no measurable link between having llms.txt and being cited, and Google has said it doesn't use it. Prioritise structured data, clear content structure and entity signals first — llms.txt is an optional extra.
