What is an AI Visibility Ranking Audit?
Paige’s AI Visibility Ranking Audit helps you see how well your business shows up in AI-generated search results. We look at how AI tools—like ChatGPT, Google’s Gemini and others—answer questions that real users might ask when looking for your services.
Think of it as an SEO audit, but for AI search engines.
How We Do It – Step by Step (A simplified explanation)
Here’s a clear breakdown of how we run your AI Visibility Ranking Audit:
1. We Take Your Target Keyword and Location
When you give us your target keyword (like HVAC Repair) and your target city (like Atlanta), we don’t just search for that exact phrase since people use AI differently than Google Maps.
2. We Turn It Into a Natural AI Search Question
AI platforms don’t work like Google did 10 years ago. People now ask questions instead of typing short phrases. So we rework your keyword into something more natural, like:
“What are some options for HVAC repair in Atlanta?”
This way, we’re mimicking how real users might ask the AI for help.
3. We Ask the AI Platforms That Question
We run this natural-language query across several top AI platforms:
ChatGPT
Gemini
Claude
Perplexity
Llama
Each AI tool returns its own answer—a list of local businesses it thinks are relevant.
4. We Analyze the Results
We then carefully check each AI response to see:
Does your business appear in the results?
If yes, what position is it mentioned in?
(1st, 2nd, 3rd, etc.)
This helps us rank your visibility—just like a search engine ranking.
What Do the Results Mean?
After your audit runs, you’ll see a Paige Audit Card that shows your visibility per platform. Here’s how to read it:
Platform | Result Example | What It Means |
ChatGPT | 
| Your business did not show up in the top 20 ChatGPT results for that keyword. |
Perplexity | 
| Your business appeared #1 on Perplexity for that keyword. |
💡 Note: A grey card means the AI didn’t mention your business in the top 20 responses for that keyword. It doesn’t necessarily mean your business is invisible forever—it just didn’t make it this time.
Why This Matters
AI search tools are starting to change how people discover local businesses. Instead of scrolling through Google listings, users are starting to ask AI assistants directly.
If your business doesn’t show up in these AI answers, you might be missing out on valuable leads.
That’s why Paige’s AI Visibility Ranking Audit is such a powerful tool—it shows you exactly where you stand and gives you a chance to improve. It's also why we build the Website & AI SEO automations to help you show up in AI search results.
