AEO Analyzer
Score any page's readiness to be cited by AI answer engines across 10 dimensions
Score Your Readiness to Be Cited by AI Answer Engines
Run any URL or HTML source through a 10-dimension scan — schema coverage, heading hierarchy, entity density, Q&A patterns, citation-worthiness, and five more — and get an overall score, a radar chart, and per-dimension findings with specific fixes.
How to Use
- Enter a URL or paste the full HTML source of any page.
- Click ANALYZE TARGET to run the 10-dimension scan.
- Review your score, radar chart, and per-dimension findings.
- Export as JSON or download a branded report card.
What We Score
- Schema Coverage (15%)
- Heading Hierarchy (10%)
- Entity Density (12%)
- Q&A Patterns (12%)
- Citation-Worthiness (12%)
- Speakable Readiness (8%)
- Content Structure (10%)
- Meta & Technical SEO (8%)
- Link Quality (5%)
- Readability (8%)
Pro Tips
- Start with headings. A clean H1→H2→H3 tree fixes 3 dimensions at once (Headings, Structure, Readability).
- Ship schema early. Article + FAQPage + Organization is 70% of the Schema dimension.
- Answer in the opening. One direct definitional sentence under every H2 lifts Q&A Patterns and Citation-Worthiness.
- Link out to primary sources. Citations to .gov, .edu, and named studies move Link Quality the most.
AEO Checklist
- Overall score ≥ 75 (AI Answer-Ready tier).
- No dimension scoring below 50.
- Schema Coverage + Q&A Patterns + Heading Hierarchy all ≥ 70.
- Readability grade 6–8, not 12+.
- Every dimension finding either passes or has a scheduled fix.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does the AEO Analyzer actually measure?
The tool runs any page through 10 weighted dimensions: Schema Coverage, Heading Hierarchy, Entity Density, Q&A Patterns, Citation-Worthiness, Speakable Readiness, Content Structure, Meta & Technical SEO, Link Quality, and Readability. Each dimension returns a sub-score and specific findings, which combine into an overall 0–100 readiness score and a radar chart.
What's a good score?
75+ puts a page in the "AI Answer-Ready" tier — its structure and signals match the patterns AI retrieval systems prefer. 60–74 needs targeted optimization; below 60 has critical deficiencies. Pages under 40 should be rewritten, not patched.
Is this the same algorithm Google AI Overview or ChatGPT uses?
No. No AI system publishes its citation algorithm. The 10 dimensions are DSF's synthesis of public research, search-engine guidance, and measured outcomes across hundreds of audits. It's a proxy, not a ground-truth predictor — but an accurate enough proxy to know what to fix first.
Can I scan competitor pages?
Yes — that's one of the primary use cases. Scan their page, scan yours, compare radar charts. The dimensions where they outscore you are your fastest optimization levers.
Why is there a URL scan limit?
The hosted URL scanner fetches each page server-side and has a fair-use cap (1 scan per user per day). Developers running bulk audits should use the Paste HTML tab — no limits, works offline with any HTML source you can copy.
