Borderline visible. AI bots can crawl Startup People, 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 Startup People
from our crawl and measurement
Startup People is a business whose own site puts it this way: "Join a founder community with €1bn in funding. Access €100k+ in perks, startup-aligned events, and founder resources. Start for free today." To AI engines like ChatGPT and Perplexity, though, it is barely visible: it scores 4.9 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.

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, Startup People is crawlable but under-signaled - fixable, and the signals above are where to start.
