Borderline visible. AI bots can crawl McCarthy & Stone, 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 McCarthy & Stone
from our crawl and measurement
"Relax & enjoy independent living. Find over 60s retirement villages, bungalows & apartments across the UK from award-winning market leader McCarthy & Stone now."

Our crawl found structured data on the page (WebSite, ImageObject, VideoObject), a sitemap and a readable heading structure. It is missing an llms.txt file.
AI crawlers have visited once in our tracking, including ClaudeBot (Anthropic).

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, McCarthy & Stone is crawlable but under-signaled - fixable, and the signals above are where to start.
