About DuckDuckGo
from our crawl and measurement
DuckDuckGo describes itself simply: "The Internet privacy company that empowers you to seamlessly take control of your personal information online, without any tradeoffs." To AI engines like ChatGPT and Perplexity it is close to invisible, scoring 2.5 out of 10.
On the page it is passable on a workable page structure and basic crawler access. What holds it back is a clearly stated business identity, sitemaps and entity links AI can follow, structured data describing the business and credibility markers like credentials or reviews.
Off the page, almost no other sites link to it, the domain does not yet read as established, AI engines do not yet recognise it as a distinct business, there is no press coverage to draw on, nobody is discussing it where AI engines look and it does not come up on Reddit. Those are earned elsewhere on the web, not fixed on the site itself.
There is not much on the page to read either, about 97 words. The site links to no social profiles, so there is nothing tying the brand to a wider presence.

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 2.8/10, DuckDuckGo is crawlable but under-signaled - fixable, and the signals above are where to start.

Why your brand doesn't show up in ChatGPT answers (and how to fix it)
ChatGPT doesn't crawl the web like Google does. When someone asks Claude about the best project management tools, the model isn't searching your website in real-time. It's pulling from training data that stopped months or years ago.
