Know if AI crawlers can even reach you
Most sites never check whether GPTBot, ClaudeBot, and PerplexityBot are allowed in. We check your robots.txt and llms.txt against the current AI crawler allow-list.
Free AI Discoverability Review
Reviewed by a person, not a scanner
Most sites have structural gaps that keep AI tools from citing them. See yours in 2 business days.
Whether AI crawlers can even reach you
robots.txt and llms.txt checked against the current GPTBot, ClaudeBot, and PerplexityBot allow-list.
Who gets cited today
We ask ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google AI Overviews your category's real questions and note who they cite.
What to fix first
A prioritized list, not a 40-point scorecard, ranked by what's actually stopping citations.
No pressure
The report is yours either way. We'll flag our AI Search Visibility service only if the findings support it.
Direct answer
A free AI discoverability review is a manual audit of a website that checks whether AI crawlers (GPTBot, ClaudeBot, PerplexityBot) can access it, whether the content is structured for AI citation, and whether ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google AI Overviews currently cite the brand for real category questions. RaftLabs's growth marketing team runs the review by hand and replies with a prioritized fix list within 2 business days.

You get the findings
A plain-English report: what's blocking AI citation, what's already working, and what we'd fix first. No sales call unless it makes sense.
What you get
Not a list of problems. Each finding is tied to a specific reason AI systems skip a page, so you know what to fix first.
See who gets cited today
We ask ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google AI Overviews your category's real questions and note who they cite: you, or a competitor.
Find the structural blockers
Missing schema, no answer-first paragraphs, thin entity signals: the specific reasons AI systems skip a page even when the content itself is good.
A prioritized fix list, not a scorecard
Findings ranked by what's actually stopping citations, not a generic 40-point checklist you have to triage yourself.
Grounded in tested tactics, not guesswork
A 2024 Princeton/Georgia Tech study tested nine AI-visibility tactics across 10,000 queries. Our review is built around the ones that measurably moved the needle.
No sales pressure attached
The report is yours regardless. If the findings point to a real gap, we'll say what closing it looks like; you decide if and when.
The gaps we see most often
After reviewing sites across categories, the same structural gaps show up over and over. Here's what keeps AI tools from citing a brand even when the content itself is solid.
AI crawlers blocked without anyone noticing
A robots.txt written for search engines years ago often blocks or throttles GPTBot, ClaudeBot, and PerplexityBot by accident. If the crawler can't read the page, no amount of good content gets cited.
No llms.txt, no plain-language summary
A growing number of AI systems check for a machine-readable company summary before crawling further. Without one, the model infers what you do from scattered pages, and often gets it wrong.
Answers buried in paragraph three
AI models cite the passage that answers a question most directly. When the answer is buried under scene-setting, a competitor's page that leads with the answer gets cited instead.
Vague claims instead of specific numbers
'We help a lot of businesses' doesn't get repeated by an AI model. Specific, sourced numbers do; statistics-first writing is one of the few GEO tactics with measured impact.
Missing or incomplete schema markup
No FAQ schema, no Organization schema, no structured data connecting the pages that should reinforce each other. AI systems can still read the page, but extraction stays probabilistic instead of reliable.
Zero presence where AI models actually look
Perplexity leans heavily on Reddit citations; ChatGPT leans heavily on Wikipedia. A site can be well optimized on-page and still be invisible if the brand has no footprint on the sources these models pull from.

Want to know what's actually blocking AI citation?
Send your URL. We check crawler access, structure, and who's currently getting cited for your category questions, then reply with what we'd fix first.
- Free. No credit card, no trial.
- A real person on our growth marketing team reviews your site, not an automated scanner.
- Findings back in 2 business days, not real time.
- We'll flag AI Search Visibility only if the findings point to a real gap.
FAQs
- Yes. No credit card, no trial. We review a limited number of sites each month as a way to show how we think about AEO and GEO. The report is yours whether or not you ever talk to us again.
- Automated scanners check for the presence of files like robots.txt and schema markup. We do that too, plus actually ask ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google AI Overviews your category's real questions to see who gets cited today, something a scanner can't tell you.
- Just the URL of the page you most want AI tools to cite, usually your homepage or a core service page. If you want us to focus on specific AI tools or a specific concern, tell us in the form; otherwise we check broadly.
- Within 2 business days. We don't reply in real time. A person actually does the review, which is the point.
- RaftLabs's growth marketing team, the same team that runs AEO, GEO, and content strategy for clients. This isn't an automated scan; it's the same lens we'd bring to a paid engagement.
- You'll get the report either way. If the findings point to real gaps and it makes sense, we'll mention our AI Search Visibility service, but the report doesn't disappear behind a sales call, and there's no obligation to talk further.
