Your customers
are asking AI.Is it answering
with your name?
Nearly a third of Americans now start with AI search instead of Google. But only 1.2% of local businesses get recommended by ChatGPT, and most of the rest have the same fixable problem: the crawlers cannot read their website at all.
We read your site exactly the way GPTBot, ClaudeBot, PerplexityBot and Google's AI crawler do. Nothing is changed and nothing is stored against you.
Ranking on Google stopped meaning what it used to
There is only about a 45% overlap between the businesses winning Google's local map pack and the businesses AI assistants actually recommend. More than half the companies sitting at the top of Google do not exist as far as AI is concerned.

The reason is rarely mysterious. AI crawlers do not run JavaScript. If your site builds its pages in the browser, every one of those crawlers lands on a blank page, and a blank page cannot be quoted, cited or recommended. Years of work, invisible.
Eight checks, no guesswork
Everything here is measured, not estimated. That is deliberate: a tool that guessed would eventually disagree with a real audit, and then neither number would be worth anything.
- 01Render test. How many words survive when JavaScript never runs.
- 02Crawler access. Whether each AI agent is allowed or refused, and where.
- 03llms.txt. Present, missing, or malformed.
- 04Structured data. Every JSON-LD block parsed, with missing types named.
- 05Navigation. Whether a crawler can find any page beyond the homepage.
- 06Sitemap. Found, counted, and compared against the routes you actually link to.
- 07Preview metadata. The Open Graph tags AI systems use to resolve what a page is.
- 08Identity signals. Address, phone, coordinates and named people in machine-readable form.
What the scan deliberately will not tell you
Two things that matter enormously cannot be measured by fetching a page: your brand authority across the platforms AI systems learn from, and the experience and expertise in your content. Those need a person. The scan shows them locked rather than pretending to score them.
We built this after failing our own test
Foresight Productions has been producing video and building sites in the Yakima Valley since 2011. In March we ran our own site through a full AI visibility audit expecting a respectable result.
Every AI crawler that visited media4sight.net was landing on a blank page, because the site was rendered in the browser and crawlers do not run JavaScript. Fifteen years of work, completely invisible. We fixed it, then built the diagnostic into something we could run for anyone else.
