Free AI visibility checker
If AI can't read your page, it can't cite you, recommend you, or send you visitors. Find out in seconds where you stand.
Three checks other tools skip
13 AI crawlers, per page
GPTBot, ClaudeBot, PerplexityBot, Google-Extended and nine more: for the exact URL you enter, not just the domain. Robots.txt rules differ per path, so a page-level check is the only honest one.
Live server block test
We request your page identifying as a real AI crawler. If your firewall, CDN or security plugin rejects it, robots.txt analysis alone would never show that: this test does.
On-page AI signals
Noindex and noai directives, title, meta description, structured data (JSON-LD), Open Graph tags, sitemap.xml and llms.txt. The signals that decide how AI reads and quotes your page.
Two real results, one lesson
The same check, two very different sites. One is fully open to AI; the other's firewall rejects AI crawlers before robots.txt even gets a say.
Access is step one. Visits are what pay off.
This checker tells you whether AI could read your content. It cannot tell you whether ChatGPT cited your pricing page yesterday, which articles Perplexity keeps coming back to, or how many customers found you through an AI answer. Those are the numbers that tell you what content to write next: and they only exist in your own traffic.
Frequently asked questions
What does the AI visibility checker do? +
It answers one question: can AI actually read this page? The checker fetches your page and your robots.txt, evaluates the rules for 13 major AI crawlers for that specific path, sends a test request identifying as a real AI crawler to detect server-level blocking, and reviews the on-page signals (noindex, noai, structured data) that influence how AI systems read and cite your content.
Why does being readable by AI matter? +
When someone asks ChatGPT, Claude or Perplexity a question in your field, those assistants can only cite pages their crawlers can reach. A page that blocks AI crawlers cannot appear in AI answers: no citations, no recommendations, no AI-referred visitors. AI answers are a growing source of traffic that most analytics tools cannot even see.
The checker says AI can reach my site. Does that mean AI actually visits it? +
No, and that is the crucial difference. Access is the precondition; visits are the reality. To know which AI assistants actually read your pages, which articles they cite and how many visitors that sends you, you need measurement on your own traffic. That is what BotSights does.
Should I block or allow AI crawlers? +
It depends on your goals, and it is not all-or-nothing. Many sites allow AI search and assistant crawlers (they cite you and send visitors) while blocking bulk training crawlers. The checker shows the three groups separately so you can set a policy per purpose rather than one blanket rule.
Is the checker really free? +
Yes. No account, no email, no limits that matter. It is our way of showing what BotSights understands about AI traffic.
