AI Visibility Scanner

See if AI search recommends your business or your competitors

Homeowners and local buyers are starting to ask AI tools which provider they should call. This scanner tests buyer-intent AI prompts, checks your website for entity signals, and shows the fixes most likely to improve your visibility.

What AI visibility means

AI visibility means your business appears when someone asks an AI tool for a provider, company, service, or recommendation. It differs from a normal Google ranking because the AI answer may list only a few businesses, summarize sources, or skip your site even when you rank well in search.

How to read your score

Your AI Visibility Score shows how clearly AI tools can connect your business name, services, website, city, reviews, contact details, and proof signals. A low score does not mean your business is weak. It means AI systems may not have enough clear evidence to recommend you over competitors.

Your results will appear here

After the scan runs, you will see AI prompt results, competitor mentions, website signal gaps, opportunity targets, pages to create, and a fix plan.

Why this matters

AI search is becoming a new referral surface for local businesses

People already compare companies through search, maps, reviews, directories, and social proof. AI search adds another decision layer. A buyer can ask for the best provider near them, the most reliable company in their city, or which business handles a specific problem.

If the answer names three competitors and not your business, that is a visibility gap. This scanner shows whether AI answers mention you, which competitors show up instead, and whether your website gives AI systems enough clear proof to understand your services, location, reviews, licensing, and business entity.

How it works

Run the scan, review the gaps, then fix the signals AI can understand

1

Enter the business

Add the business name, website, category, city, and main services. Competitors are optional, but they make the comparison stronger.

2

Test AI prompts

The scanner runs prompts like a buyer would ask. It checks whether the business appears and which competitors are named instead.

Why rankings alone do not guarantee AI mentions

A business can rank on Google and still be overlooked in AI search results. AI tools may look for clear service pages, trusted third-party mentions, reviews, business profiles, structured data, and consistent name-address-phone details before naming a company. Google says structured data helps Search understand page content and classify it correctly.

3

Check entity signals

The site crawl looks for service, city, schema, sameAs, contact, review, license, sitemap, and proof signals.

What entity signals include

Entity signals help AI systems confirm that your business is real, local, and tied to specific services. Strong signals can include LocalBusiness schema, service pages, city pages, contact details, review proof, license details when relevant, social profile links, and consistent business information across trusted sources connected to your business website. Google's LocalBusiness structured data can include details such as hours, departments, and business information used in Search features.

4

Prioritize fixes

The output ranks what to fix first, so the business can improve AI visibility without guessing at generic SEO tasks.

What to do after the scan

Start with fixes that make your business easier to verify. Add missing service details, improve location clarity, clean up schema errors, connect social and directory profiles, add stronger proof, and create pages for high-intent services the scan finds. Re-run the scan after major website or profile updates to see whether AI answers changed.

Built for local categories

Designed for businesses where local trust drives the call

Local buyers often ask AI tools direct questions like "best roofer near me," "who repairs AC in Phoenix," or "which mover should I call." These searches reward clear proof: service area, reviews, specialties, licensing where needed, and easy contact paths. The scanner checks whether your site gives AI tools that proof.

AI visibility is becoming part of modern marketing for local service businesses, especially in categories where buyers compare providers before making a call.

Fix plan

A simple 3-step AI visibility fix plan

Step 1: Prove who you are.

Make your business name, website, phone number, city, service area, and main services consistent across your site and major profiles.

Step 2: Prove what you do.

Create clear service pages for the jobs buyers actually search for. A roofer should not rely on one general roofing page if buyers ask about roof repair, storm damage, metal roofing, and roof replacement.

Step 3: Prove why AI should trust you.

Add review proof, license details when relevant, project examples, FAQs, schema, and links to active business profiles. These signals help AI tools connect your brand to real services in a real location.

FAQ

AI Visibility Scanner questions

Is this a full SEO audit?

No. It is focused on AI search visibility. The crawl checks signals that help AI systems understand a local business: entity clarity, service area, structured data, proof, contact paths, and basic crawlability.

Does this replace Google SEO?

No. Traditional SEO still matters. AI visibility adds another layer: whether AI tools can confidently name your business when a buyer asks for a provider in your city.

What is AEO?

AEO means Answer Engine Optimization. It focuses on making your content clear enough to answer direct questions in search results, AI answers, and assistant-style tools.

What is GEO?

GEO means Generative Engine Optimization. It focuses on improving how your business appears in AI-generated answers from tools like ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, and Google AI features.

Is GEO the same as AI SEO?

Not exactly. AI SEO is a broad phrase. GEO is more specific because it focuses on how generative AI systems find, understand, and mention your brand.

Why do competitors appear in the report?

Competitors appear because AI tools often name a short list of businesses instead of showing a full search results page. The report helps you see which competitors AI tools mention, how often they appear, and what signals may help them get picked.

Do reviews help AI visibility?

Reviews can help because they add trust proof around your business name, service quality, and local relevance. The scan checks review and proof signals so you can see whether your site gives AI tools enough confidence.

Does schema help AEO or GEO?

Yes, schema can help search systems understand your business details more clearly. Google says structured data uses a standard format to provide page information and classify content.

Why do different AI tools give different answers?

Different AI tools use different models, sources, indexes, and answer rules. One tool may mention your business while another may choose competitors. That is why checking more than one AI surface gives a better view.

How often should I check AI visibility?

Check after major website updates, new service pages, review growth, directory cleanup, or schema fixes. For active local campaigns, monthly checks can show whether visibility is improving.

Do Google AI Overviews affect clicks?

They can. Pew Research Center found that users clicked traditional search results in 8% of visits when an AI summary appeared, compared with 15% when no AI summary appeared.

What should I do after the scan?

Fix the highest-priority gaps first. Start with business identity, service clarity, city relevance, schema errors, reviews, contact paths, and missing high-intent pages. Then run another scan after updates are live.
