AI Crawler Accessibility
Inspects robots.txt rules and meta robots directives for blocking rules targeting AI crawlers (GPTBot, ClaudeBot, PerplexityBot, Google-Extended, etc.).
- LLM bot access permissions
- Indexing directives & noindex flags
Check AI-service access, content clarity, structured entity data, and citation readiness for modern AI search.
GEO is the practice of preparing web content so that large language models (LLMs) and generative answer engines—such as SearchGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, Copilot, and Google AI Overviews—can discover, parse, extract, and accurately understand your information.
Traditional SEO focuses on page-level ranking for keyword queries in link-based SERPs. AI readiness demands direct machine extractability, clean factual hierarchy, unambiguous entity definitions, and explicit crawl permissions for AI bots.
AI services read pages differently from people. Accessible robots.txt rules, valid HTML, clear main text, Schema.org markup, and consistent brand information make the site easier to understand.
Accurate checks based only on the technical setup and content found on the page.
Inspects robots.txt rules and meta robots directives for blocking rules targeting AI crawlers (GPTBot, ClaudeBot, PerplexityBot, Google-Extended, etc.).
Evaluates canonical targets, HTTP status codes, redirect chains, and heading structure (H1–H6) to ensure clean ingestion.
Assesses text-to-HTML density, readable content structure, and absence of heavy client-side lockouts that obscure main body text.
Validates Schema.org JSON-LD implementations including Organization, Article, FAQPage, LocalBusiness, and BreadcrumbList.
Audits official social profile references, sameAs entity relations, NAP consistency, and brand identity alignment.
Checks author attribution, external citation references, publication metadata, and content transparency for fact verification.
How content requirements shift when moving from ten blue links to direct AI synthesis.
Aira separates website data from external observations of AI-service answers. These are different kinds of checks and are not combined into one score.
A high readiness score means technical and structural extraction barriers are removed. It is a necessary foundation, not a guarantee of citation.
Model outputs vary by prompt, context, and training cutoff. Low observed presence does not inherently indicate a technical flaw on your site.
Actionable issues that hinder AI crawlers from accurately discovering and extracting your content.
Accidental or legacy Disallow directives that block GPTBot, ClaudeBot, or PerplexityBot from accessing valuable public content.
