AI Visibility Audit

AI SEO Audit

Your competitors are already showing up in ChatGPT, AI Overviews, and Perplexity. This 30-day audit reveals exactly where you're invisible, why, and what to fix — led by a senior SEO strategist with 15+ years of experience.

The visibility gap you can't see in Analytics

Your competitors are already showing up in AI answers. Are you?

Google AI Overviews appear on 30%+ of commercial queries. ChatGPT processes hundreds of millions of prompts daily. Perplexity, Gemini, and Grok are capturing the research phase that used to send traffic to your site. If your content isn't structured for how LLMs retrieve and cite sources, you're losing clicks you'll never see in Google Analytics — because the click never happens.

What We Analyze

Six pillars of AI search visibility

Over 30 days, I personally audit your site across six critical dimensions that determine whether AI systems retrieve, trust, and cite your content.

1
AI visibility scorecard across ChatGPT, AI Overviews, and Perplexity

Generative Engine Presence

I test your brand, products, and key topics across ChatGPT, AI Overviews, Perplexity, Gemini, and Grok. You get a clear map of where you appear, where competitors appear instead, and the specific queries where you're invisible.

2
Generative query mapping for AI search opportunities

AI Visibility Opportunities

Beyond traditional keyword research, I map the "generative queries" and prompts your audience is using in AI tools. You get a prioritized list of opportunities where your content should appear but doesn't — ranked by business impact.

3
Technical audit for LLM readability and crawl accessibility

Technical LLM Readability

LLMs don't parse your site like Googlebot. I audit the structural elements that help (or block) AI models from understanding your content: schema markup, heading hierarchy, content chunking, internal linking topology, and crawl accessibility for AI bots.

4
Content architecture blueprint for AI citation optimization

Content Architecture for AI

I design a content strategy built for AI citation. This means structuring content around the fanout sub-queries that LLMs generate internally, optimizing titles for semantic matching, and building the topical depth that makes AI systems treat you as an authority.

5
Digital authority and citation signal analysis

Digital Authority & Citation Signals

AI systems weight mentions, backlinks, and entity recognition differently than traditional search. I analyze your citation profile across the web — brand mentions, link quality, knowledge graph presence — and identify the authority gaps that keep you out of AI answers.

6
AI visibility measurement dashboard and KPI framework

Measurement Framework

Traditional SEO KPIs miss the picture. I redefine your metrics to capture zero-click visibility, AI citation frequency, brand mention tracking in generative responses, and the new engagement patterns that matter when 60% of searches never produce a click.

Who This Is For

Built for teams that take organic visibility seriously

Enterprise & Mid-Market Brands

Organic traffic plateauing despite stable rankings? AI Overviews and zero-click results are eating into your visibility — this audit shows exactly where and gives you the plan to adapt.

E-commerce Companies

Product searches are shifting to AI recommendations. If ChatGPT and Perplexity aren't suggesting your products when users ask for buying advice, that revenue is going to competitors who show up.

SaaS & Technology Companies

Your buyers research solutions through AI tools before visiting your site. If your brand isn't in the AI-generated answer for "best [your category] tools," you've already lost the first touchpoint.

Publishers & Content-Heavy Sites

AI systems consume your content to generate answers but cite only a fraction of sources. This audit maps exactly how citation mechanics work so you capture attribution instead of feeding AI for free.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about the AI SEO Audit

How do I know if my brand is losing visibility to AI — even if my rankings look stable?
AI Overviews, ChatGPT, and Perplexity are intercepting searches before users ever reach the traditional results page. Your rankings may look fine in Search Console, but your click-through rates are declining because AI answers satisfy the query directly. This audit measures your presence in the AI layer that traditional SEO tools can't see — and quantifies exactly how much visibility you're missing.
How is this different from a traditional SEO audit?
A traditional SEO audit optimizes for Googlebot crawling and ranking signals. This audit evaluates how large language models retrieve, evaluate, and cite your content. We analyze semantic structure, entity recognition, fanout query alignment, citation probability signals, and cross-platform AI presence — none of which appear in a standard technical SEO audit.
What kind of visibility opportunities will this reveal that I can't find with existing tools?
Standard keyword tools track search volume in Google. This audit maps the generative queries and prompts your audience uses in ChatGPT, Perplexity, and AI Mode — queries that don't appear in any keyword database. We identify where AI systems are already answering questions about your industry and where your content should be the cited source but isn't.
How actionable is the roadmap you deliver?
Every recommendation comes with a clear owner assignment, effort estimate (small/medium/large), expected impact rating, and implementation priority. The roadmap is organized into 30/60/90-day phases so your team can start executing immediately after the presentation. No vague "improve your content quality" advice — specific pages, specific changes, specific expected outcomes.
What level of involvement does my team need during the 30 days?
Minimal. Your involvement is limited to the 90-minute kickoff session (to align on goals and provide access credentials) and the 60-minute strategy presentation at the end. Between those, I handle all research, testing, and documentation. If questions arise during analysis, I'll reach out asynchronously rather than scheduling additional meetings.
Do you also implement the recommendations, or just deliver the audit?
The audit is a standalone engagement focused on diagnosis and strategy. Implementation can be handled by your internal team using the detailed roadmap, or we can discuss a follow-up engagement through Growing Search if you want hands-on execution support. Many clients find the roadmap detailed enough to implement internally.
Which AI platforms do you test against?
The core evaluation covers Google AI Overviews, Google AI Mode, ChatGPT (including web browsing mode), Perplexity, Gemini, Grok, and Microsoft Copilot. If your industry has specific vertical AI tools (e.g., healthcare, legal, or financial AI assistants), those can be added to the scope during the kickoff session.
