AI SEO Audit
The technical read on whether an answer engine can fetch, parse and quote your pages.
How it works
What is the AI SEO Audit?
The AI SEO Audit is a free tool that measures sixteen SEO signals on one page, such as HTTPS, title, meta description, canonical, JSON-LD and image alt text, then has an AI model grade those measurements. You get an overall score and letter grade, four sub-scores, a passed or failed note for each check, and up to five fixes.
How to use the AI SEO Audit
- Enter the URL of the page to audit, such as https://example.com/blog/post. The audit reads that exact page.
- Press Audit website. The tool fetches the page, times the fetch, and checks whether
/robots.txt,/sitemap.xmland/llms.txtexist on the site. - Press Sign up free to unlock to see the result. The audit has already run; a free account reveals it.
- Read the overall score and grade, then the four scores: Crawler Speed, Technical SEO, Meta Tags and Content Structure.
- Go through the sixteen checks, each marked passed or failed with one sentence on why, and then the recommendations.
What does an AI SEO audit check?
This one checks sixteen things on a single page. The tool measures them in code: HTML fetch time, HTTPS, whether /robots.txt, /sitemap.xml and /llms.txt exist, JSON-LD, the lang attribute, the title, the meta description, the canonical, Open Graph and Twitter card tags, a favicon, the H1 count, how many images have alt text, and how many internal links the page has.
Those values then go to an AI model, which marks each check passed or failed, explains it in a sentence, and sets the scores and grade. The measuring is done in code so the numbers are real. The model only judges what it is given.
Why doesn't the AI visit the page itself?
Because a chat model asked to audit a URL will usually produce an audit anyway. It will name your title tag, estimate your load time and comment on your headings for a page it never fetched. The output is fluent, specific and invented, and it is worse than no audit because it reads exactly like a real one.
So the prompt here carries raw values and nothing else. If the result says your meta description is 68 characters, that is because the tool counted 68 characters.
Questions
- What is AI SEO?
- AI SEO is the work of making pages easy for AI answer engines such as ChatGPT, Perplexity and Google's AI Overviews to fetch, understand and cite. It also goes by GEO (generative engine optimization) and AEO (answer engine optimization). Most of it rests on ordinary SEO: crawlable HTML, clear titles and headings, and structured data.
- What is the difference between AI SEO and traditional SEO?
- AI SEO aims to get a page quoted in an AI answer, while traditional SEO aims to rank it in a list of links. The foundations are the same. AI SEO adds attention to AI crawler access, answer-sized passages and the signals that make a brand easy to name.
- How do you do an SEO audit for a website?
- An SEO audit checks each page for crawl access, meta tags, headings, links, images and structured data, then fixes the failures in order of impact. This tool does that for one page at a time, so audit a template page, such as a product page or an article, to learn what applies across the site.
- What should an AI SEO audit checklist include?
- An AI SEO audit checklist should cover HTTPS, a robots.txt that lets AI crawlers in, a sitemap, a title and meta description, one H1, a canonical, JSON-LD structured data, alt text and internal links. It should also check that the copy is in the served HTML, since most AI crawlers do not run JavaScript.
- Is the AI SEO audit tool free?
- Yes. The AI SEO Audit is free; you need a free hyperank account to see the result. Each run audits one page.
