AI SEO & AI visibility FAQ

What is an AI visibility checker?+

An AI visibility checker measures how often and how favorably AI search engines like ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude and Perplexity surface or cite your brand. Searchable AI scores this and tells you what to fix.

What is Answer Engine Optimization (AEO)?+

AEO is the practice of optimizing content so AI answer engines retrieve and quote it. It overlaps with GEO (Generative Engine Optimization) and is the new layer of SEO for the LLM era.

What is a GEO tool?+

A GEO (Generative Engine Optimization) tool helps you optimize content for generative search engines like ChatGPT and Perplexity, where answers — not blue links — are the destination.

How do I rank in ChatGPT?+

Earn citations from sources LLMs trust, publish entity-rich content, add comprehensive schema, maintain an llms.txt file, and write conversational, question-style answers. Searchable AI tells you exactly which of these you're missing.

Is Searchable AI free?+

Yes — the AI visibility checker is free with no signup. A Pro tier with continuous tracking and competitor benchmarking is coming.

Which AI engines do you analyze?+

ChatGPT (OpenAI), Gemini (Google), Claude (Anthropic), Grok (xAI), and Perplexity.

How is this different from an LLM SEO tool?+

It is an LLM SEO tool — purpose-built for ranking and getting cited across large language models, not retrofitted from legacy keyword tools.
