01 / Free tool
Is your page ready to be cited by AI?
Paste a URL. We fetch the page and run 11 deterministic checks for how ready it is to be quoted and cited by AI answer engines like ChatGPT, Perplexity and Gemini. You get a 0-100 score and exactly what to fix. No AI calls, no API keys, no sign-up.
02 / Why it matters
Search moved from a list of links to a single answer.
The old way
Ten blue links. You optimized to rank, the user clicked through, and you owned the page they landed on.
The new way
The engine reads a handful of pages, writes one answer, and cites a few sources. If your page is not structured to be quoted, you are not in the answer at all.
Growth in AI referral traffic across 2025, and those visitors tend to convert several times better than organic search.

Of AI citations now come from Google's top-10 results, down from 76% a year earlier. Ranking is no longer enough to be in the answer.

More likely to appear in Google AI Overviews when a page carries FAQ schema, one of the 11 signals this tool checks.
Search Engine Land
This tool checks the on-page half of that equation: whether an AI engine can find a clean answer on your page, verify it, and attribute it to you.

We run the checks
We pull the live page and score it on 11 deterministic, on-page signals that decide whether an AI answer engine can quote it. No AI, no guessing.

04 / What it checks
Eleven signals, grouped into what AI engines reward.
Each check is weighted by how much it moves the needle on getting quoted. The score is the weighted sum, normalized to 100.

05 / Reading your score
What the number means.
The page is structured to be quoted. AI engines can find a clean answer, verify it, and attribute it to you.
Some signals are in place, but gaps (missing schema, no citations, a stale date) make the page easy to skip over.
Likely invisible to AI. The page reads as unstructured, unverified, or undated, so engines have little reason to cite it.
06 / FAQ
Questions, answered.
What does AI visibility actually mean?+
It is how likely an AI answer engine (ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, Google AI Overviews) is to quote your page and cite it as a source when someone asks a question in your space. As people shift from clicking blue links to reading AI answers, being the page the AI quotes is the new front page.
My site already ranks well on Google. Why do I need this?+
Because ranking no longer guarantees you are in the AI answer. Only about 38% of AI citations now come from Google's top-10 results, down from roughly 76% a year earlier. You can rank #1 and still be invisible in ChatGPT or AI Overviews if the page is not structured to be quoted, which is exactly what this checks.
Does this tool use AI to score my page?+
No. Every check is deterministic and verifiable: we read the page's HTML, schema, headings, links and dates. No LLM, no API keys, no black box. The same URL always gets the same score, and we can tell you exactly why.
What is a good score, and which check matters most?+
80-100 is Strong, 55-79 is Partial, below 55 is Weak. FAQPage schema and a direct, answer-first opener punch above their weight, because AI engines lift verbatim Q&A and short declarative answers. Outbound citations matter too: a cited claim reads as verified, an uncited one reads as opinion.
Is a high score enough to get cited by AI?+
No, and we will not pretend otherwise. This measures on-page readiness, which is necessary but not sufficient. The biggest driver of whether AI cites you is what other sites say about you: directory listings, roundups, comparison posts. That off-site work is what Beamcite does for you.
How is this different from an SEO audit?+
SEO audits optimize for ranking a link on a results page. This optimizes for being quoted inside an answer. The signals overlap but are not the same: AI engines reward extractable Q&A, structured data, cited claims and answer-first writing far more heavily than classic SEO does.
Do I need to sign up?+
No. Paste a URL and get your score. There is no account, no credit card and no email wall.
