What it scores

Eight AEO signals, one clear score

The same scoring engine that powers the LinkLoom platform — wrapped in a free single-URL audit.

Entity Clarity

Detects named entities and checks if they are unambiguously linked to Wikidata or the Knowledge Graph.

Citation Surface

Counts the stats, quotes, dates, and primary sources LLMs prefer to attribute when generating answers.

Answer Density

Measures the ratio of question-answer pairs and TL;DR summaries that AI engines extract verbatim.

Heading Hierarchy

Validates H1–H4 structure for the logical depth and parallelism that AI parsers prefer.

Schema Coverage

Reviews JSON-LD for Article, FAQ, HowTo, Product, and other types AI engines read first.

AEO Score

Combines all eight signals into a 0–100 score with ranked, actionable fixes.

How it works

From URL to action plan in four steps

No setup, no spreadsheets, no waiting.

01

Paste a URL

Drop in any public page — blog post, landing page, product page, or knowledge base article.

02

Instant audit

The analyzer fetches the page, parses it, and runs all eight AEO signal checks in under five seconds.

03

Read the score

See your AEO score, signal breakdown, and the top three highest-impact fixes pinned at the top.

04

Apply fixes

Each suggestion is concrete and copy-pasteable — no vague "improve readability" advice.

What you get

Inside the report

Every audit returns the same four panels — designed to be skimmed in 30 seconds.

Score breakdown

See exactly where you lose points

Each of the eight signals gets its own sub-score, so you know whether the issue is entities, schema, or answer density.

Ranked fixes

The three changes with the biggest lift

Suggestions are sorted by estimated AEO impact, not by checklist order. Fix the top three first.

Frequently asked questions

What is AEO?

+

AEO (Answer Engine Optimization) is the discipline of structuring content so it gets cited by AI assistants like ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude, and Google AI Overviews. Where SEO optimizes for the click, AEO optimizes for the citation.

How is AEO different from SEO?

+

SEO optimizes content to rank in traditional search engine result pages. AEO optimizes content to be cited inside AI-generated answers. The two overlap (clean structure helps both) but AEO weights answer density, entity clarity, and citation surface much more heavily.

How does the analyzer score my page?

+

The analyzer fetches the URL, parses the HTML, and evaluates eight signal categories: keyword coverage, heading hierarchy, readability, internal linking, answer density, entity clarity, citation surface, and schema completeness. Each is scored 0–100 and combined into an overall AEO score.

Which AI engines does it cover?

+

The scoring rubric is tuned against citation behavior from ChatGPT (with browsing and Search), Perplexity, Claude with web search, Google Gemini and AI Overviews, Microsoft Copilot/Bing, and Grok.

Do I need to sign up?

+

No. The AEO analyzer is 100% free, with no signup, no email capture, and no usage caps. Paste a URL, get a score, walk away.

Why did I get a low score even though my SEO is good?

+

Strong SEO does not guarantee strong AEO. Pages that rank well can still lack the answer density, entity disambiguation, and citation surface that AI engines need. The analyzer surfaces exactly which AEO-specific signals are missing.

How do I improve my AEO score?

+

Start with the top three ranked fixes the analyzer surfaces — they typically include adding a TL;DR or FAQ block, defining named entities with sameAs links, and adding stat-backed citations. Each fix is specific to your page.

Can I analyze password-protected or staging pages?

+

No — the analyzer can only fetch publicly accessible URLs. For staging or gated content, paste the raw HTML into the LinkLoom platform editor instead.
