AI search readiness means your site can be fetched, parsed, and understood by systems that turn web pages into answers. The report checks crawl access, page structure, buyer-facing copy, and proof signals.
AI Search Readiness Checker
Can AI search understand
your website?
Buyers are asking ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google for shortlists, comparisons, and answers. This free scan shows whether your site gives those systems a page they can crawl, parse, quote, and trust.

What answer engines need
from your site
What we check
Crawlability
Can crawlers reach the right pages?
Checks robots.txt, AI crawler rules, redirects, sitemaps, and status codes to see what a crawler can actually fetch.
Machine Readability
Can your pages be parsed cleanly?
Looks at titles, descriptions, headings, semantic HTML, schema, and canonicals, the basics machines use to identify a page.
Answerability
Can your site answer buyer questions?
Reviews whether the pages say what you sell, who it is for, how it works, and why someone should believe it.
Authority & Trust
Does the site give enough proof?
Checks for company details, case studies, testimonials, legal pages, authorship, contact paths, and recent evidence.
Technical Quality
Does the site hold up technically?
Checks page weight, response time, HTTPS, viewport setup, image alt text, broken links, and crawl friction.
Priority Fixes
What should you fix first?
Ranks the issues by severity, points lost, affected page, and the exact evidence behind the callout.
Know what the score means
Score guide
80-100
Strong foundation
The main pages are reachable, readable, and clear enough for a useful summary.
60-79
Good, with leaks
There is material to work with, but missing proof, weak structure, or crawl friction can water down the answer.
40-59
Hard to trust
Key facts, pages, schema, or proof are missing, so the site is harder to summarize with confidence.
0-39
Blocked or unclear
Crawlers may be blocked, or the returned HTML does not explain the company clearly enough.
What you get back
Inside the report
A score only matters if it tells you what to fix.
The report separates real blockers from busywork. Every recommendation includes the page, the evidence, the severity, and the fix to hand to a writer or developer.
A 0-100 readiness score with category-level scoring.
Crawl checks for robots.txt, redirects, sitemap, HTTPS, noindex, and priority pages.
Readability checks for titles, descriptions, headings, schema, canonicals, and llms.txt.
A content review for the offer, audience, differentiation, and direct answers.
A proof review for case studies, testimonials, company details, freshness, and trust markers.
Priority fixes with affected pages, evidence excerpts, points lost, and a specific next step.
Why now
AI answers are only as clear as the source page.
If the pages are blocked, vague, or light on proof, the summary starts from a weak source. Fix the source and the rest has a better shot.
Access
Crawlers can reach the page
Clarity
The offer is easy to extract
Proof
Trust signals are visible
Common blockers we look for
What breaks readiness
The site says a lot, but never gives a clean answer
The pages need self-contained passages that explain the company, offer, audience, proof, and next step without decoding vague brand copy.
Important pages are hard to discover
Weak internal links, missing sitemap entries, redirects, and blocked paths make useful pages less reliable.
The HTML does not match what humans see
If key content only appears after scripts run, normal crawlers may receive a thin page even when the browser looks fine.
There is not enough proof to cite
Case studies, quantified outcomes, named customers, testimonials, authorship, and company details make claims easier to trust.
Metadata and headings are doing the wrong job
Multiple H1s, vague titles, missing descriptions, and messy heading hierarchy make the topic and intent harder to extract.
Schema is missing or too generic
Organization, product, service, article, breadcrumb, FAQ, and author markup can clarify entities and relationships when it is accurate.
Who this is for
For teams that need the website to do more of the selling.
SaaS and AI teams that need buyers to understand the product faster.
Marketing teams publishing SEO or AEO content and unsure whether it is easy to extract.
Founders whose product is better than the current website makes it look.
Teams spending on ads, outbound, partnerships, or content but leaking trust on the site.

Frequently asked questions
FAQs
Enter your website and verify your email. The checker crawls public pages on your domain, reviews the HTML and content, then emails the report when it is ready. You get the score, category breakdown, pages checked, and fixes tied to page evidence.
SEO usually looks at rankings, links, metadata, and search traffic. AI search readiness asks a different question: can an answer engine fetch the page, understand the company, pull a useful answer, and find enough proof to avoid guessing? There is overlap, but this is not a rankings report.
The score is calculated from five categories: crawlability, machine readability, answerability, authority and trust, and technical quality. The app calculates the score from deterministic checks and structured content review. The AI model does not assign the overall score.
Clear titles, clean headings, crawlable HTML, useful internal links, accurate schema, direct explanations, case studies, testimonials, company details, and recent proof all help. The best pages do not make a crawler infer the basics.
Yes. The scan and report are free. The point is to show what is actually blocking readiness before you spend time fixing the wrong things.
No. It does not test rankings, citations, recommendations, or visibility inside ChatGPT, Google AI Overviews, Gemini, Perplexity, or any other AI product. It checks whether your site gives those systems something clear and trustworthy to work from.
Schema helps when it is accurate. Organization, product, service, author, breadcrumb, article, review, and FAQ markup can clarify what the page is about. It is not a magic ranking factor, but missing or messy schema can make the page harder to interpret.
No. llms.txt is a minor optional signal. It can provide useful context, but crawlability, clear content, structured pages, proof, and technical quality matter more.
Answer engines still need to fetch pages. If important URLs are blocked, redirected badly, noindexed, missing from internal links, or absent from the sitemap, the site can look thinner than it really is.
A page with no proof is harder to trust. Company details, contact paths, author information, case studies, customer proof, testimonials, legal pages, dates, and citations all make the site easier to summarize responsibly.
The checker stays on the submitted domain. It analyzes the homepage plus important public pages it can discover through navigation, the sitemap, internal links, and common page patterns.
No. The crawler uses server-side HTTP fetching and HTML parsing. If key content only appears after client-side JavaScript runs, the report can flag that because many crawlers may see the same thin HTML response.
The report runs in the background, so we verify your email to prevent abuse and send you the link when it is ready.
Start with the critical and important findings. Fix access issues, clarify the offer, add missing proof, clean up headings and schema, and make key buyer questions answerable on the page. If you want help, book a Raze session and we will map the shortest path.
Yes. Raze handles the design, development, conversion copy, SEO, schema, proof sections, page structure, and technical cleanup that make websites easier to understand and easier to buy from. We also offer AEO content support for teams that want articles built for search and AI answers.
