About Marginal Revolution University
from our crawl and measurement
Marginal Revolution University is a business whose own site puts it this way: "Learn economics on your time. MRU provides over 900 free videos, taught by top economists." Its AI visibility score is 5.7 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, crawler access and the files AI engines look for and sitemaps and entity links AI can follow. It is passable on a partly stated business identity. What holds it back is structured data describing the business and credibility markers like credentials or reviews.
Off the page, other sites link to it and it comes up on Reddit. There is some, but not much, sign that the domain is only lightly established. Beyond that, AI engines do not yet recognise it as a distinct business, there is no press coverage to draw on and nobody is discussing it where AI engines look. None of that can be fixed on the page: it has to be earned.
It does link out to several social profiles, which helps engines tie the brand together. The business dates to 2012.

How to Get Your Company Named by ChatGPT, Gemini, and Claude
