They finished the purchase without ever knowing you existed. This is not a low ranking — it is being left off the shortlist entirely.
The checks the real report runs. Nothing is auto-scored here — the score is run by a person against your live site and emailed to you. Read what each check means first.
Leave your URL and a person measures your live site against the five checks above, then emails you the result plus a 1-page checklist. (run by a person, not auto-scored — and free)
Sent. We'll email you the breakdown and a 1-page checklist shortly.
When search returned ten blue links, being on page one was enough. AI answers name two or three brands and stop. Getting into that set is a different problem: the engine must be able to crawl your page, lift a self-contained answer from it, and trust you enough to cite it. Research on multilingual retrieval even finds a bias toward English documents regardless of relevance — so non-English brands are structurally disadvantaged unless their English surface is built for this. We measured ten export brands in one category: three were silently blocking AI crawlers at the CDN, and not one had a single answer-shaped paragraph.
We probe each engine's crawler with its real user-agent, and score per engine — weights differ (AutoGEO, GEO-16).
New to AEO? That's fine. There are three ways to find out whether your brand makes it into AI answers — ask the AI yourself, hire an agency, or have us measure it. It comes down to what each one gives you and what it can't.
| DIY prompting | AEO/GEO specialist retainer | AEO Korea diagnostic | |
|---|---|---|---|
| How it measures | Ask ChatGPT a few times — answer changes each run | Varies by firm; method often undisclosed | Reproducible 5-dimension audit + 4 real crawler fetches |
| Detects crawler blocks | Usually not | Depends on the firm | Yes — browser vs GPTBot response compared every time |
| Basis for fixes | Personal experience / intuition | Each firm's in-house method | Cited research (GEO, KDD 2024) |
| Billing | Free (but not reproducible) | Monthly retainer (ongoing) | One-off report from $390 · flat fee |
| Turnaround | Instant but unstable | Often weeks to onboard | Scorecard 2 days · report 5 business days |
The comparison is to a boutique firm that specializes in AEO/GEO — not a full-service marketing agency. A monthly retainer is an ongoing engagement; our diagnostic is a one-off report, so the billing models differ. Retainer ranges are an estimate from public quotes and typical market rates.
Picture the re-measurement we aim for: last month 'below floor', this month 'citable'. Getting there takes accurate measurement and a few fixes — not a rebrand. We don't guarantee the AI will name you (a private algorithm makes that call); what we guarantee is reproducible measurement and a 30-day re-measure that shows the change in numbers.
Crawlers blocked, zero citable paragraphs, no structured data. AI describes you from third parties only.
Crawler access restored, answer blocks per buyer question, clean entity graph. AI quotes you.
Every score is reproducible; every fix is annotated with the research behind it (GEO, KDD 2024). We re-measure in 30 days.
What to expect — free scorecard in 2 business days. Paid diagnostic runs request → agreement & payment link within 1 business day → you pay → report within 5 business days. It is not an instant checkout.
Prices are exactly as listed above — flat fee, no negotiation. Start with the free scorecard. For the paid diagnostic or monitoring, click the button below and we email you the agreement plus a bank-transfer payment link within one business day — you pay and we start. Payment is currently by bank transfer (service contract, 3.3% withholding); invoice and card are being added once business registration is complete. Nothing is charged until you transfer.
SEO is about ranking in a list of links. AEO is about being cited and recommended inside the answer an AI writes. The old page of ten links is now one answer that names two or three brands, so getting into that set is a different problem.
No. AI answer algorithms are private, so promising visibility would be a lie. We promise reproducible measurement, fixes backed by published research, and a re-measurement 30 days later with the same method. If a site can't be measured, we refund in full.
If one report catches a single misfiring crawler block, it undoes a state where the brand was entirely absent from ChatGPT's answers. In our cohort, 3 of 10 were in exactly that state. Unlike an AEO/GEO specialist's monthly retainer (an ongoing commitment), this is a one-off flat-fee diagnostic at $390, so it's a low-risk way to start.
Export-focused brands whose overseas buyers ask ChatGPT, Perplexity or Google's AI. K-beauty, cross-border D2C, and B2B manufacturers. If real revenue rides on being named by an AI, this is for you.
The free scorecard takes two business days; the paid diagnostic five. Some fixes, like unblocking crawlers, are a few config lines and land within days.
In plain terms — we built a tool that opens your site through the eyes of the programs AI uses to read the web (crawlers), and mechanically scores whether your text is shaped the way AI likes to quote. We calibrated it against a US firm in the same field (Answerability) and we don't promise what we can't measure.
We built the audit engine ourselves — code that fetches each site with the real user-agents of four crawlers (GPTBot, OAI-SearchBot, ClaudeBot, PerplexityBot) and compares response codes, analyzes the length distribution of server-rendered paragraphs to count citable blocks, and parses robots.txt, llms.txt and structured data. The methodology mechanizes Answerability's (answerability.ai) audit framework, and we calibrated our engine's scores against their manual audit of the same sites so the two don't diverge. It's run by people with a data/engineering background plus a corporate-finance discipline of never promising what can't be measured — which is why you won't see us guarantee AI visibility.
