Journey fit

Run a GEO pass on your launch URL before announcing so AI crawlers and citability blocks are in place.
Align classic SEO structure with AI-overview-friendly summaries and entity clarity on key pages.
Rewrite blog sections for passage-level quotes that Perplexity and ChatGPT search can attribute.
Stress-test a waitlist page for AI crawler access before you scale paid distribution.
How it compares
GEO and AI-citation analysis skill—not a backlink prospecting tool or generic keyword rank tracker.

Citability Score (25%) **Optimal passage length: 134-167 words** for AI citation. **Strong signals:** - Clear, quotable sentences with specific facts/statistics - Self-contained answer blocks (can be extracted without context) - Direct answer in first 40-60 words of section - Claims attributed with specific sources - Definitions following "X is..." or "X refers to..." patterns - Unique data points not found elsewhere **Weak signals:** - Vague, general statements - Opinion without evidence - Buried conclusions - No specific data points ### 2. Structural Readability (20%) **92% of AI Overview citations come from top-10 ranking pages**, but 47% come from pages ranking below position 5, demonstrating different selection logic. **Strong signals:** - Clean H1->H2->H3 heading hierarchy - Question-based headings (matches query patterns) - Short paragraphs (2-4 sentences) - Tables for comparative data - Ordered/unordered lists for step-by-step or multi-item content - FAQ sections with clear Q&A format **Weak signals:** - Wall of text with no structure - Inconsistent heading hierarchy - No lists or tables - Information buried in paragraphs ### 3. Multi-Modal Content (15%) Content with multi-modal elements sees **156% higher selection rates**. **Check for:** - Text + relevant images - Video content (embedded or linked) - Infographics and charts - Interactive elements (calculators, tools) - Structured data supporting media ### 4. Authority & Brand Signals (20%) **Strong signals:** - Author byline with credentials - Publication date and last-updated date - Citations to primary sources (studies, official docs, data) - Organization credentials and affiliations - Expert quotes with attribution - Entity presence in Wikipedia, Wikidata - Mentions on Reddit, YouTube, LinkedIn **Weak signals:** - Anonymous authorship - No dates - No sources cited - No brand presence across platforms ### 5. Technical Accessibility (20%) **AI crawlers do NOT execute JavaScript.** Server-side rendering is critical. **Check for:** - Server-side rendering (SSR) vs client-only content - AI crawler access in robots.txt - llms.txt file presence and configuration - RSL 1.0 licensing terms --- ## AI Crawler Detection Check `robots.txt` for these AI crawler
