AI Citation Readiness Check
Can Google AI Overviews, ChatGPT and Perplexity reach this page, lift a clear answer from it and trust it enough to cite it? Enter a page and see what stands in the way.
What is checked
Whether the page can be indexed, whether answer-engine crawlers are allowed in robots.txt, and whether the content is in the HTML or only appears after JavaScript runs.
A short, direct answer at the top, subheadings phrased as questions, lists, short paragraphs and an FAQ.
A named author, a recent date, links to sources and an identified organisation.
Structured data, title, meta description and declared language.
None of these is a published Google ranking factor. Each one is a practical signal for what answer engines need from a page, so treat the score as a to-do list, not a prediction.
