What this score means
Your AEO score measures whether AI search engines - ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, Gemini - can actually read your site and cite it in answers. Roughly two-thirds of sites are invisible to them. At 5.1/10, AI Search Explained has a working base to build on - fixable, and the signals above are where to start.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why do all these terms exist?
Each term describes a different part of how information is created, found, understood, retrieved or used in an answer. Traditional search usually presents a ranked set of pages. AI-assisted search may also retrieve information, combine several sources and generate a direct response. That change has produced new terminology, but the language is not always used consistently.
