Is your website ready for AI search?

More buyers now ask ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini for recommendations instead of scrolling a results page. When they do, the AI quotes a handful of sources - and if your site is not set up to be one of them, you are invisible to those buyers. This free AI readiness checker scores how prepared your site is and shows you the fastest fixes.

It is a plain-English self-assessment - no code, no sign-up, and nothing leaves your browser. Answer 10 quick questions and you get a 0-100 score, a grade, and a prioritized checklist of what to improve first.

Frequently asked questions

What is an AI readiness checker?+

An AI readiness checker is a quick self-assessment of whether your website is set up to be found, understood, and cited by AI search engines like ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini. It looks at things like crawler access, how directly your pages answer questions, structured content such as FAQs, and third-party mentions, then scores how ready you are.

Is my website ready for AI search?+

If AI crawlers can read your pages, your content answers real questions directly, and other trusted sites mention you, then you are in good shape. This free checker turns those signals into a 0-100 score and a prioritized fix list so you know exactly where you stand and what to improve first.

How do I make my website more AI-friendly?+

Lead key pages with a clear, direct answer to the main question, add an FAQ section, publish honest comparison and “best of” content, include specific facts and numbers, keep AI crawlers unblocked, and earn mentions on third-party sites. The checker flags which of these you are missing.

Is this AI readiness checker free?+

Yes. It is completely free, requires no sign-up, and runs entirely in your browser - none of your answers leave your device. Use it as often as you like.

What is the difference between this and an AI visibility check?+

This readiness checker measures whether your site is set up to be cited (the inputs). An AI visibility check measures whether AI engines actually mention you right now (the outcome). Start with readiness to fix the foundations, then track real visibility to see citations appear.
