Free tools / GEO Audit

One GEO audit, three signals, one score

Visibility, crawlability and trust each have their own free tool. This one runs all three together and gives you a single 0 to 100 score with the fixes ranked by impact.

How it works

The audit reuses the same checks as our visibility, crawler and E-E-A-T tools, run together, then reduced to one score with recommendations for the weakest signal. Nothing is simulated or guessed.

“AI Mode and AI Overviews may use different models and techniques, so the set of responses and links they show will vary.”

We run all three checks

Visibility (live AI answers), crawlability (robots.txt, llms.txt, sitemap) and trust (author, dates, schema).

Recommendations are ranked by which of the three scores is lowest.

FAQ

Short answers to the questions people ask most before they run the GEO audit, based on what the tool actually checks.

What does the GEO audit check?+

Three signals already used by Howseen’s other free tools: AI visibility (are you named for your category), AI crawlability (can AI crawlers read your site) and E-E-A-T trust signals (author, dates, schema, citations). It combines them into one score.

Is this real or simulated?+

Real. Visibility comes from live Claude answers with web search on; crawlability and trust come from fetching your actual robots.txt, llms.txt, sitemap and page HTML. Nothing is guessed.

How is the score calculated?+

An equal-weighted average of the three signal scores (visibility, crawlability, trust), each out of 100. If one signal could not be computed, the score uses the signals that could be.

What do I do with a low score?+

The tool ranks 2 to 4 recommendations by which signal is weakest. Fix that one first, since it is usually the cheapest lever.
