Censys

Censys describes itself simply: "Censys empowers security teams with the most comprehensive, accurate, and up-to-date map of the internet to defend attack surfaces and hunt for threats." Its AI visibility score is 6.9 out of 10: the engines can find it, but they do not have much to hold on to.

On its own pages the site does well on a clear heading structure, a clearly stated business identity, crawler access and the files AI engines look for and sitemaps and entity links AI can follow. It is passable on some structured data. What holds it back is credibility markers like credentials or reviews.

Off the page, other sites link to it and people discuss it in places AI engines read. There is some, but not much, sign that the domain is only lightly established, press coverage is thin and it barely surfaces on Reddit. Beyond that, AI engines do not yet recognise it as a distinct business.

AI crawlers have visited 2 times in our tracking, including GPTBot (ChatGPT). It does link out to several social profiles, which helps engines tie the brand together. The business dates to 2017.
