Act 1 · The diagnosis
See exactly what AI says about your business.
The free audit runs your customers' real questions and shows whether AI recommends you or your competitors, where your visibility gaps are, and how AI describes you, with every answer kept as proof.
Why this matters
Search used to give you ten chances. AI gives you one answer.
Google gave you ten spots, and ranking anywhere on page one got you found. AI gives one answer that names two or three businesses. Either you're one of the names, or you were never in the running.
The old way
Google · ten blue linksEven ranked seventh, customers scrolled, compared, and called you. SEO was a ladder, slow but climbable from any rung.
The new way
AI assistants · one answer> best dentist near me
Based on current reviews, Northpoint Dental Studio and Lakeview Family Dental are highly rated and frequently recommended.
And that's the entire answer. No list. No page two. No scrolling past.
Not named? You don't exist.
AI reads the web, picks the few names it trusts, and answers in a sentence. Two or three businesses get the customer. There isn't even a ladder anymore.
The industry calls this GEO (Generative Engine Optimization) or AEO (Answer Engine Optimization). Translation: being one of the names AI says out loud when your customers ask. That's what this audit measures.
Exhibit A · sample dossier
Receipts, not vibes.
Every audit produces verbatim AI transcripts, a competitor leaderboard, and a prioritized fix list. Here's the full artifact for a plumbing company, ready to inspect before you enter anything.
Who the AIs recommend instead
Aggregated across 24 web-grounded queries · 3 models
The findings
Your robots.txt's Disallow rules match GPTBot and ClaudeBot, read straight from the file. Those models are told not to read your site; competitors with open sites get cited instead.
Your pages have no structured data telling AI who you are, where you are, or what you do. You're asking the models to guess.

AI answers shift week to week. We monitor your visibility across every engine and keep optimizing, so the ground you gain doesn't quietly slip back to a rival.
What we optimize
The work that gets you into the answer.
Six levers decide whether AI recommends you. We work every one of them, in plain terms, no jargon required on your end.
Make your site readable to AI
We make sure AI crawlers like GPTBot and ClaudeBot can actually reach and read your pages, so the assistants can see what you do in the first place.
Label your business for AI
We add the structured data that tells AI exactly who you are, what you offer, and why you're trustworthy, instead of leaving the models to guess.
Answer the questions customers ask
We build content that directly answers the real questions people ask AI about your category, in the clear, quotable format assistants pull their answers from.
Fix your info across the web
We make your name, details, and story consistent everywhere AI looks, so the models are confident they've got the right business and recommend you with certainty.
Build the signals that earn citations
We strengthen the reviews, mentions, and authority signals AI weighs when it decides which few businesses are worth naming, so you become one of them.
Monitor your visibility over time
We track how often each AI names you versus your competitors, month over month, and keep optimizing so you climb and hold your position as answers change.

Why trust this
No hype. Just evidence.
We're new, and we'd rather earn trust with proof than borrow it with testimonials we don't have yet. Here's what stands behind the work.
Four engines, real answers
We query ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, and Claude in live web-grounded mode, the same way your customers do. Not a simulation, the real answers.
Every claim has a receipt
We only ever assert what we observed: parsed crawler rules, recorded HTTP statuses, and captured AI answers kept verbatim. If we didn't see it, we don't claim it.
We practice what we preach
Our own site is built to pass the exact audit we sell: readable to AI crawlers, structured for machines, and scoring high on our own checks.

Questions, answered.
Ask it the way a customer would, with prompts like “best dentist near me” or “top roofer in [your town]”, and see whether your name appears. To know systematically, run an AI visibility audit: TrustedByAI sends real, web-grounded queries to ChatGPT, Gemini, and Perplexity, records every answer verbatim, and shows whether you were named, what position you ranked, and which competitors were recommended instead.
AI visibility is whether AI assistants like ChatGPT, Gemini, and Perplexity name your business when people ask for recommendations. The practice of improving it is called GEO (Generative Engine Optimization) or AEO (Answer Engine Optimization). Unlike traditional SEO, where ten results share page one, an AI answer names only two or three businesses, so visibility is binary: you're one of the names, or you're invisible.
Four levers matter most: (1) let AI crawlers read your site, with no robots.txt or firewall blocks on GPTBot, ClaudeBot, or PerplexityBot; (2) add structured data (LocalBusiness and FAQ schema) so models know who you are, where you are, and what you do; (3) build review volume and a consistent business identity across Google and your website; (4) publish content that directly answers the questions customers ask AI. An audit shows which lever is holding you back.
Many sites do without knowing it: robots.txt rules or firewall and CDN bot protection silently refuse GPTBot, ClaudeBot, and PerplexityBot, which means AI models can't read your site at all. TrustedByAI tests this directly: we fetch and parse your robots.txt rules and send real requests using each AI crawler's published user-agent, then report the exact HTTP status each one received.
Yes. We run real, web-grounded queries against ChatGPT, Gemini, and Perplexity and a full technical scan of your site. Your three highest-severity findings are free with no email required; the full report unlocks with your email address.
Four categories: AI presence (do the models mention you, and at what position), technical readiness (can AI crawlers like GPTBot and ClaudeBot read your site, schema markup, sitemap), entity & reputation (Google Business Profile, reviews, NAP consistency), and content readiness (does your site answer the questions people actually ask AI).
The free instant audit queries ChatGPT and Perplexity, always in web-grounded mode, so the answers reflect what real users see today. The Initial AI Visibility Assessment included in every monthly plan runs all four engines and expands the query battery.
About 60 to 90 seconds. You watch it run live: each query and check appears as it completes, then your score and competitor leaderboard are revealed.
No. Unlocking the full report sends you the PDF plus a short follow-up sequence about your specific findings. Unsubscribe is one click, and we never sell your data.
