Free AI visibility checker
Check AI visibility of your website for free: see whether OpenAI and Gemini models recommend you, who they recommend instead, and which pages they cite.
What is an AI visibility checker?
An AI visibility checker is a tool that asks AI assistants the questions your buyers ask, such as “best invoicing app for freelancers”, and records whether your brand shows up in the answers. This AI visibility checker also lists the third-party pages the AI cited, because those pages are often where its recommendations come from.
What you get from the AI visibility checker
- A source list with an action for each page. Every URL the AI cited, sorted by how often it was cited and labelled as a listicle, Reddit or forum thread, review site or directory, vendor page or news, with one next step for each.
- Mention rate per engine. How often your brand or domain appeared, and its average position when the answer was a list.
- Competitors. The names the AI recommended, ordered by how often each came up.
- AI readiness checks. robots.txt rules for GPTBot, OAI-SearchBot, ChatGPT-User, Google-Extended, PerplexityBot and ClaudeBot; llms.txt; JSON-LD; title and meta description; whether your text is in the server HTML; and sitemap.xml.
| Type | Cited page | Action |
|---|---|---|
| Listicle | “The 9 best invoicing apps for freelancers” | Contact the author to be considered for the list |
| r/freelance: “What do you use for invoices?” | Answer helpfully and say you work on the product | |
| Directory | A software review directory category page | Submit or claim your listing; ask customers for reviews |
How the AI visibility checker works
- We read your homepage to suggest your brand name and category keywords. You can edit both.
- We run the readiness checks on your site. These use no AI and are free.
- We write buyer-style questions (“best X for Y”, “alternatives to Z”, “how do I…”) and send each one to the OpenAI and Gemini APIs with web search on.
- We parse every answer for your brand, its list position, competitor names and cited URLs, and save a report you can share by link.
Free check and full report
The free AI visibility checker runs the readiness checks and a preview: 5 questions on one engine, one run each. The full report asks 15 questions on both OpenAI and Gemini, 2 runs each, for a one-time $9, and includes a re-check after 30 days so you can see what changed.
What an AI visibility checker can and can’t tell you
It shows how API versions of these models answer today, across a sample of questions. It can’t see inside the ChatGPT or Gemini apps, it can’t promise that changes on your side will change the answers, and a small sample always carries noise. Use the source list as a to-do list and run the AI visibility checker again later to compare.
FAQ
›What does this AI visibility checker test?
It asks OpenAI and Gemini models the kind of questions a buyer asks before choosing a product, with web search turned on, and records whether your brand or domain appears, where it ranks in the list, which competitors are named and which pages are cited. It also checks whether AI crawlers can read your site.
›How do I check AI visibility of my website for free?
Enter your website above, confirm your brand name and 3–5 category keywords, and run the free check. You get the on-site readiness checks plus a preview of 5 questions on one engine. No sign-up is needed.
›Who is this AI visibility checker for?
Founders, indie developers, marketers and agencies who want to know whether AI assistants recommend a product or site, and what to do about it. It works best for products people compare before buying: software, apps, online services and shops.
›Is this the same as what people see in ChatGPT or Gemini?
No. We use the official APIs, which do not match the consumer apps exactly: the apps add personalisation, memory and their own search settings. Studies comparing the two find that the cited sources overlap only partly. Treat the results as a strong signal, not a copy of the app.
›Why do the results change if I run the check again?
AI answers are not deterministic, and web search results change. The full report asks every question several times and shows rates, so one lucky or unlucky answer doesn't decide the result. Each report states how many runs were made.
›What do I do with the list of cited sources?
Each source comes with a one-line action. For a “best X” article, contact the author to be considered; for a Reddit thread, answer helpfully and disclose who you are; for a directory, submit or claim your listing. Pages that AI answers already cite are a practical place to start.
›Is the free AI visibility checker really free?
Yes. The readiness checks and the 5-question preview are free, limited to 3 checks per day per network to keep costs down. The full report (15 questions, both engines, repeated runs, plus a re-check after 30 days) is a one-time $9 purchase.
›Which AI models does it use?
Currently gpt-5.4-mini through the OpenAI Responses API with web search, and gemini-3-flash through the Gemini API with Google Search grounding. Model names can change as the providers update them; each report records the models it used.
