AEO Readiness Score
Find out how well your website performs across the 12 Answer Engine Optimization criteria — the factors that determine whether ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude, and Gemini cite your content in AI-generated answers.
Why AEO Score Matters
50% of searches will be handled by AI answer engines by 2026 (Gartner). If your AEO score is below 60, AI systems are likely not citing your content — sending potential customers to competitors instead.
Most sites score 25-45. Common failures: missing author schema, no FAQPage structured data, no speakable markup, and content that buries the answer in introductory paragraphs.
A score above 70 puts you in the top 15% of websites for AI readiness — and in position to earn consistent AI citations in your industry's question space.
