What is AEO and why does it matter?
AEO stands for Answer Engine Optimization — the practice of making your business visible to AI systems like ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, and Gemini. These systems now answer millions of queries per day without sending users to a search results page. If your business is not structured in a way AI can read, understand, and cite, you are invisible to a rapidly growing share of online traffic. AEO is how you fix that.
How does the free AI Visibility Score work?
Enter your domain URL and our platform crawls your site in under 60 seconds. We check whether your pages are accessible to AI crawlers, whether you have an llms.txt file, whether your structured data (JSON-LD) is correct, whether your robots.txt is blocking AI bots, and a range of other signals that determine how well AI systems can discover and cite your business. You get a score from 0–100 with a breakdown of what passed and what failed.
What is llms.txt and do I need one?
llms.txt is an emerging standard — a plain-text file placed at the root of your domain that tells AI language models what your business does, what pages exist, and how to accurately describe you. Think of it as robots.txt, but for AI systems instead of search crawlers. Most businesses do not have one. Our Starter plan generates and publishes yours automatically.
What does Zygur actually fix?
Our Starter plan generates your llms.txt file and installs the JSON-LD structured data blocks AI systems use to understand your business, location, services, and offerings. Our Pro plan adds the Zygur Pixel — a lightweight monitoring script that tracks when AI systems visit your site, measures your citation frequency across AI platforms, and alerts you when your visibility changes.
What is the Zygur Pixel?
The Zygur Pixel is a small script that runs on your site and detects AI crawler traffic — including GPTBot, ClaudeBot, PerplexityBot, and others. It logs when these crawlers visit, which pages they read, and how often. Combined with our citation monitoring, it gives you a real-time view of how AI systems are engaging with your site — so you can see when changes you make improve your AI visibility.
How long does it take to see results?
Most fixes take effect within one to four weeks as AI systems re-crawl your domain. llms.txt and JSON-LD changes are picked up on the next crawl cycle. Citation frequency improvements in ChatGPT, Claude, and Perplexity typically follow within two to six weeks depending on how often those systems re-index your niche. The Pixel starts reporting crawler activity immediately after installation.
What is the Agency plan and how do agencies use it?
The Agency plan at $199/month covers up to 10 domains — designed for marketing agencies that want to offer AI Search Optimization as a client service. You score, fix, and monitor AI visibility for each client domain from a single dashboard. Agencies typically charge clients $200–500/month per domain, making the unit economics strong. We provide white-label-friendly reporting so you can show clients their score progress over time.
Does Zygur work for any type of business?
Yes. Any business with a web presence can be scored and improved. AEO is especially high-impact for local service businesses, professional services, SaaS companies, and e-commerce brands — any category where customers are asking AI systems for recommendations. If someone might ask ChatGPT "who is the best [your service] in [your city]," you need AEO.
What happens if my score is already high?
A high score is a good starting point, but visibility is not static. AI systems update their indexes, crawl patterns change, and competitors improve. Our Pro and Agency plans include ongoing monitoring so you are alerted when your score drops or when a competitor gains ground. Maintaining visibility requires the same kind of ongoing attention that traditional SEO does.
