  • One audit costs a fixed token amount — no subscription required to try it.

Give me a URL. I’ll crawl the page, judge it against the criteria LLMs use when picking sources to cite, and hand you back a scored report with concrete fixes. Auditing is read-only — nothing changes until you hit Execute and give the agent permission.

What is AEO, and why does this agent exist?

Answer Engine Optimisation is SEO for large language models. When someone asks ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini or Google’s AI Overviews a question, the model picks a handful of pages to synthesise its answer from — and cites them. AEO is the discipline of making sure your page is one of those citations. This agent checks the signals that matter most: question-led headings with direct answers underneath, structured data (schema.org), scannable structure, citable facts, and clean metadata.

Frequently asked questions

What is Answer Engine Optimisation (AEO)?

AEO is the discipline of making a web page easy for large language models — ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude, Gemini and Google's AI Overviews — to read, understand and cite. It focuses on question-led headings, direct answers, structured data and clear metadata rather than classical SEO ranking signals.

What does the AEO Audit Agent actually check?

The agent fetches the page, extracts headings, body text, JSON-LD and metadata, and scores it against roughly 30 AEO signals: question-style H2s with answers underneath, first-100-word directness, FAQ blocks, schema types present, canonical and og tags, readability, and factual density. Every finding lists the exact fix.

Will it change anything on my site?

No. The AEO Audit Agent is read-only — it only fetches public HTML and returns a report. Any fixes are yours to review and apply. There is no crawler load beyond the pages you ask it to sample.

Can I audit a competitor's site?

Yes. The agent audits any publicly-reachable URL, so you can benchmark your own pages against competitors and see exactly which AEO signals they're winning on.

Does the AEO Audit Agent cost anything?

The agent runs on your SynaBot token wallet. Every account starts with 2,500 free welcome tokens plus 500 more each month, which covers dozens of single-page audits before you'd need to top up.
