Borderline visible. AI bots can crawl Things, 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 Things
from our crawl and measurement
"Nestled in the beautiful and historic harbour village of Boscastle, you will find a large and varied selection of homeware, jewellery and gifts at Things and in our online shop." That is how My Site of Cornwall introduces itself. When AI engines look at it, they find little to work with. It scores 3.4 out of 10.
The site gets some of it right: it has structured data on the page (LocalBusiness). What holds it back is what is absent, including an llms.txt file, a sitemap, a heading structure that lays out what it offers.

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 3.7/10, Things is crawlable but under-signaled - fixable, and the signals above are where to start.
