What an AEO checker should show

The answer matters more than the acronym.

A good checker should tell you what was tested, what appeared, what evidence supported it, and what to improve.

01

The request

The plain-English customer need used for the check.

02

The answer

Whether your business was recommended, mentioned, cited, or missed.

03

The next move

The page, proof, or business detail most worth improving first.

The free AEO starting point

First check whether AI understands the business at all.

Cite N Seek's free Vibe Check reads one public homepage. It explains what the business appears to do, who it appears to serve, what information is unclear, the biggest clarity blocker, and one plain-English fix.

It does not run a live recommendation search. That keeps the free result fast and useful without pretending one answer represents the whole market.

Red flags

Avoid checkers that hide the evidence.

Be cautious when a checker:

  • Promises a guaranteed ChatGPT, Gemini, or Perplexity ranking.
  • Shows a mystery score without the question, answer, date, or source.
  • Claims five-platform coverage but does not identify which checks actually ran.
  • Creates hundreds of generic recommendations that do not connect to evidence.
