The AI visibility audit: find out what the machines say about you.
Ask ChatGPT who's best in your category. Ask Perplexity to build a shortlist. Ask Gemini what your brand does. The answers exist right now, shaping buyers you'll never see in analytics. The audit maps them — and prices the fixes.
You can't fix an answer you've never read
Every day, buyers in your market ask AI assistants questions you used to win on Google. The assistants answer confidently — sometimes citing your competitors, sometimes describing your business wrong, sometimes omitting you from a category you lead. Almost nobody has systematically read those answers about their own market.
The audit does exactly that, then explains the *why* behind every gap: the missing schema, the inconsistent entity data, the content that ranks for humans but can't be extracted by machines, the corroboration your competitors have and you don't.
What you get
The answer map
A fixed panel of buyer-realistic prompts run across ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, and AI Overviews — who gets named, who gets cited, what they say about you, logged and scored.
Competitor citation analysis
Which sources put your competitors in the answers — their schema, their entity footprint, their third-party corroboration — reverse-engineered.
Technical extraction review
Whether machines can actually parse your site: structured data coverage, content structure, crawlability for AI agents, entity consistency across the web.
The prioritized fix list
Every gap ranked by revenue relevance and effort, priced as a fixed fee. Findings are yours whether you hire us to execute or not.
The audit findings are yours either way. We're confident about what happens after you read them.
How it runs
- 01
Prompt panel design
Day 1–3
We build the question set from how your buyers actually ask — category, comparison, 'best for X,' and brand-check prompts.
- 02
Answer sweep
Week 1
The panel runs across all four engines, logged with citations, phrasings, and consistency checks across sessions.
- 03
Gap forensics
Week 1–2
Why the answers look the way they do: your extraction blockers, entity inconsistencies, and the corroboration behind competitors' citations.
- 04
The walkthrough
Week 2
Findings presented live with the prioritized fix list — what to do in month one, what compounds after.
Audit questions, answered straight
What does the AI visibility audit cost?
The audit is a fixed fee, quoted upfront. It's scoped as a fixed-fee engagement rather than a retainer teaser: real deliverable, real walkthrough, findings that are yours to execute with anyone. If the fixes are things your team or current agency can handle, the audit paid for itself as a punch list. If you want us to run them, the audit fee credits toward the engagement.
We rank well in Google. Won't our AI visibility already be fine?
Sometimes — that's genuinely the best starting position, since assistants lean on sources classic search already trusts. But the audit regularly finds strong rankers missing from AI answers for mechanical reasons: no structured data on key pages, entity data that disagrees across the web, or content written in a style machines summarize past rather than cite. Those are cheap fixes with outsized returns precisely because your authority already exists.
How often should the audit be rerun?
The full forensic audit is a point-in-time exercise; the answer map inside it is worth refreshing quarterly because engines and answers move monthly. Clients on ongoing AIO engagements get the prompt panel tracked continuously as part of reporting, so the audit becomes a baseline rather than a snapshot.
What if the audit finds we're already well-represented?
Then you get a document proving it, the specific reasons why it's working, and a short list of what to protect — which is worth knowing before a site redesign or rebrand quietly breaks it. It happens more often with businesses that already invested in structured data and consistent profiles. We'd rather tell you that than invent work: most clients come from referrals, and that only works if the recommendations hold up.
