AI Search Audit Guide

Your comprehensive resource for understanding how AI search engines evaluate, rank, and cite your brand. Learn what each metric means, how we calculate it, and strategic actions to dominate AI-powered search results.

What is an AI Search Audit?

An AI Search Audit is a comprehensive analysis of how well your brand, website, and content perform in AI-powered search environments like ChatGPT, Google AI Overviews, Perplexity, Claude, and Bing Copilot.

Unlike traditional SEO audits that focus on keywords and backlinks, AI search audits measure your entity strength, knowledge graph presence, citation authority, and semantic relevance across the emerging AI search landscape.

Why This Matters

By 2025, over 60% of search queries are answered directly by AI systems without users clicking through to websites. If your brand isn't recognized and cited by AI engines, you're invisible to a majority of potential customers.
