Borderline visible. AI bots can crawl SBA Buddy, 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 SBA Buddy
from our crawl and measurement
"Refinance your SBA loan with SBA Buddy. Lower rates, flexible options, and nationwide access. Quick pre-qualification, transparent savings, and expert support to improve your cash flow." That is how SBA Buddy introduces itself. To AI engines like ChatGPT and Perplexity, though, it is barely visible: it scores 4.2 out of 10.
Our crawl found a sitemap and a readable heading structure. It is missing structured data describing the business and an llms.txt file.
AI crawlers have visited 3 times in our tracking, including ClaudeBot (Anthropic) and GPTBot (ChatGPT).

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 4.2/10, SBA Buddy is crawlable but under-signaled - fixable, and the signals above are where to start.
