Partial audit result

The website checks completed, but some AI evidence was unavailable. The score excludes skipped checks rather than treating them as failures.

  • 5 AI probes were incomplete; affected checks were skipped or based only on completed evidence.
  • AI category inference used a conservative fallback; answer probes still ran, but category-specific recommendations may be less precise.

Buyer-query evidence

The first read should show what AI said, whether competitors surface instead, and the top fix.

Raw AI answer

No AI answer evidence was captured for this run.

Competitor signal

No competitor comparison signal was available for this run.

Top fix

Quotable product definition near top

Add a 25–50 word definition above the fold matching the template: "<Brand> is <category> that <primary function>, <key differentiator>." AI engines often cite this verbatim.

Top fixes

Highest-impact issues first, ranked by severity.

  • Quotable product definition near topFailcontent.product_definition_likely

    A clear definition of what your product is appears in the first 300 words AI engines extract.

    Evidence: No clear definition pattern in the first 300 words.

    Fix: Add a 25–50 word definition above the fold matching the template: "<Brand> is <category> that <primary function>, <key differentiator>." AI engines often cite this verbatim.

  • Pricing visible or linkedFailcontent.pricing_visible

    Pricing is visible or one click away — AI engines extract this constantly.

    Evidence: No pricing table and no link to /pricing or /plans.

    Fix: Publish a /pricing page with a comparison table. "Talk to sales"-only pricing kills AI citation in commercial queries ("how much does X cost").

  • sameAs profile links presentFailentity.same_as_profiles_present

    Schema links your brand to authoritative external profiles AI engines trust.

    Evidence: No sameAs links on the entity node.

    Fix: In your Organization schema, add a sameAs array for authoritative profiles your brand already maintains, such as LinkedIn, GitHub, Crunchbase, or a major product directory.

  • Use case or audience statedFailcontent.use_case_or_audience_signal

    Your homepage names who the product is for and the job they're hiring it for.

    Evidence: No "for [audience]" or "built for" patterns in body copy.

    Fix: Name your ICP in the hero ("Built for SaaS founders") and again in a use-case section. Without this, AI engines can't recommend you for queries like "best X for Y".

  • Canonical URL setFailentity.canonical_url_set

    A canonical URL is declared so AI engines pick the right page.

    Evidence: <link rel="canonical"> missing on the homepage.

    Fix: Add <link rel="canonical" href="https://yourdomain.com/"> in <head>. Prevents duplicate-page confusion when AI engines crawl variants.
