AEO Score: 5/10
Monitoring for AI engine activity
In the Engagemii AEO index
#373,363 of 1,937,839 in Media & Entertainment for AI visibility
Your AEO score measures whether AI search engines (ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, Gemini) can actually read your site and cite it in answers. Two-thirds of websites are invisible to them. The Dakota Scout just got measured.
5/10 means The Dakota Scout is borderline visible. AI bots can crawl your site but your structured-data signals are thin. You are at risk of being skipped when buyers ask AI for a recommendation.
