from our crawl and measurement
Choose Chicago is a Chicago, IL business whose own site puts it this way: "See The Bean in Chicago, also known as Cloud Gate, with tips on photos, visiting hours, and why this mirrored landmark is a must-see downtown Chicago." To AI engines like ChatGPT and Perplexity it is partially visible, scoring 5.6 out of 10, readable in places and missing in others.
Our crawl found structured data on the page (Article, WebPage, ImageObject) and a readable heading structure. It is missing an llms.txt file and a sitemap.
AI crawlers have visited once in our tracking, including ClaudeBot (Anthropic).

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 5.6/10, Choose Chicago has a working base to build on - fixable, and the signals above are where to start.
What does The Bean mean?
The Bean’s reflective surface was inspired by liquid mercury.
What’s The Bean made out of?
The exterior of The Bean is made entirely of stainless steel. It was created using computer technology to precisely cut 168 massive steel plates, which were then fitted together and welded shut for a completely seamless finish. Inside, it’s made of a network of two large metal rings. The rings are connected via a truss framework, similar to what you might see on a bridge.
How big is The Bean?
The Bean is 33 feet high, 42 feet wide, and 66 feet long. It weighs about 110 tons — roughly the same as 15 adult elephants.
