Want to know if ChatGPT, Perplexity, or Google AI Overviews recommend your brand? Most businesses have no idea how they appear (or don’t appear) in AI search results. A GEO audit reveals exactly where your brand stands in AI answer engines — and what it would take to get recommended.
Be The Answer offers a free AI visibility audit that shows you: which AI models mention your brand, what they say about you, which competitors get recommended instead, and the specific steps needed to improve your AI search visibility.
What a GEO Audit Covers
AI Visibility Check
We query ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude, Google AI Overviews, and Copilot with your target keywords — the same questions your potential customers ask. For each query, we document: whether your brand appears, in what position, what the AI says about you, and which competitors are recommended.
Entity Health Assessment
We check your brand’s entity profile across the sources AI models trust: Wikipedia, Wikidata, Crunchbase, LinkedIn, Google Knowledge Graph, and industry-specific directories. Gaps or inconsistencies in your entity profile can prevent AI models from recommending you.
Structured Data Review
We analyze your website’s schema markup to see if AI models can properly parse your brand information, products, services, and content. Most websites have basic schema at best — we identify what’s missing and what needs improvement.
Content Citation Potential
We evaluate your existing content for AI citation potential: does it answer questions directly? Does it include citable statistics? Is it structured for AI extraction? We identify your highest-potential pages and what needs to change.
Competitive AI Landscape
We map your competitive landscape in AI search — who gets recommended for your target keywords, why they get recommended, and where the opportunities are for your brand to displace them.
Why You Need a GEO Audit Now
AI search is growing exponentially. According to recent data, AI-powered search tools now influence over 30% of product and service discovery queries. That number is projected to exceed 50% by 2027. Brands that establish AI visibility now will have a compounding advantage over those that wait.
The businesses getting recommended by AI today are cementing their position. AI models develop “confidence” in brands over time — the longer a brand appears consistently in AI recommendations, the harder it becomes for competitors to displace them. Starting your GEO strategy 6 months from now means competing against brands with a 6-month head start.
How to Do a Basic GEO Audit Yourself
While a professional GEO audit provides deeper analysis, you can start with these basic checks:
Step 1: Open ChatGPT and ask: “What are the best [your product/service category] companies?” Note whether your brand appears and what’s said about you.
Step 2: Repeat on Perplexity, Google (look for AI Overviews at the top), and Claude. Different platforms may give different results.
Step 3: Search for “[your brand name]” on each AI platform. See what they know about you. Are the details accurate? Complete? Positive?
Step 4: Check your Google Knowledge Panel (search your brand on Google). If you don’t have one, that’s a significant entity gap.
Step 5: Run your site through Google’s Rich Results Test. See what structured data you have and what’s missing.
