AI Visibility Scorecard
Cloud

Borderline visible. AI bots can crawl Cloud, but the structured-data signals are thin - you are at real risk of being skipped when buyers ask ChatGPT, Claude, or Perplexity for a recommendation.

About Cloud
from our crawl and measurement
Cloud describes itself simply: "Leverage educational content like blogs, articles, videos, podcasts, reports and more, crafted by IBM experts, on emerging cloud technologies." To AI engines like ChatGPT and Perplexity, though, it is barely visible: it scores 4.9 out of 10.
Our crawl found a readable heading structure. It is missing structured data describing the business, an llms.txt file and a sitemap.

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 4.9/10, Cloud is crawlable but under-signaled - fixable, and the signals above are where to start.
