What is a free website AEO checker?

A free website AEO checker tests how easy it is for answer engines (Google AI Overviews and AI Mode, ChatGPT search, Claude, Perplexity and Copilot) to find, read and quote one of your web pages. Enter a page address above and this tool scores crawler access, answer-ready content, structured data, trust signals and technical basics, then lists the fixes that matter most.

What it checks

Five areas that decide whether answer engines can use your page

Google says its AI features are built on the same systems as normal search and that no special markup is required. So this checker focuses on the fundamentals that every answer engine depends on, and keeps optional extras (like llms.txt) out of the score.

Crawl access

Does robots.txt allow Googlebot, Bingbot and the AI search crawlers? Is the page indexable, free of snippet limits, served over HTTPS and readable without JavaScript? Does your firewall turn robots away?

Answer-ready content

Clear headings, question-style headings, a short direct answer near the top, concise answers under each question, lists and tables, enough detail, readable sentences, a visible update date and image descriptions.

Structured data

Valid JSON-LD, Organization or Person markup, the right page type (Article, Product, SoftwareApplication, FAQPage and more) with its key fields, breadcrumbs and sameAs profile links.

Trust and authority

A named author, About, Contact and policy pages, visible contact details, links to outside sources and a clear site name and logo.

Technical basics

Title, meta description, canonical address, XML sitemap, server speed, Open Graph tags, mobile viewport and page language.

How it works

How to check a page for AEO in three steps

Paste a page address, read the score and the top fixes, then apply the code snippets and check again. Each check takes about ten seconds.

Enter a page address

Type or paste the full address of one page, such as your home page, a blog post or a product page, and press Check this page.

Read your score

In about 10 to 20 seconds you get a score out of 100, a score for each of the five areas, and the fixes that will help most.

Fix, copy code, check again

Work through the fix list. Copy the ready-made code where it helps, publish the change, and check the same page again to see your score rise.

Be realistic

What this tool can and cannot tell you

It can tell you whether crawlers are allowed in, whether the page is easy to quote, and which fixes are worth your time. It cannot tell you whether ChatGPT or Google will actually cite you, because those systems decide for themselves and nobody outside them can promise it.

Sources behind the checks: Google Search Central on AI features, RFC 9309 (robots.txt standard) and OpenAI crawler documentation.

The check reads the page as a server sees it, without running JavaScript, and measures speed once from FileXL's server. Scores are a guide for improvement, not a ranking. Fix the red items first, then the amber ones.

Questions

AEO Checker: frequently asked questions

Is this AEO checker really free?

Yes. The FileXL Free AEO Checker costs nothing and needs no sign-up, no credit card and no credits. You can check up to 8 pages every 10 minutes, and every report includes the fix list and the ready-to-paste code.

How do I check my website for AEO?

Paste the address of one page into the free website AEO checker and press Check this page. In about 10 to 20 seconds you get a score, the fixes that matter most and code you can copy. Check your home page first, then your most important blog or product pages.

What is AEO (Answer Engine Optimization)?

AEO is the practice of making your content easy for answer engines to find, understand and quote. Answer engines include Google AI Overviews and AI Mode, ChatGPT search, Claude, Perplexity and Microsoft Copilot. The goal is to be the source they use or cite when someone asks a question.

Is AEO different from SEO?

Mostly it builds on SEO. Google says its AI features rely on the same crawling, indexing and quality systems as normal search, so the SEO basics still apply. AEO adds extra attention to direct answers, clear structure, trust signals and whether AI crawlers can reach your pages.

Do I need special schema or an llms.txt file for AI Overviews?

No. Google says no special markup or machine-readable file is needed to appear in its generative AI features, and that Google Search does not use llms.txt. Structured data is still useful for rich results and for helping machines identify your content, so this checker scores it modestly and treats llms.txt as optional information only.

Should I block GPTBot and ClaudeBot?

That is your choice. GPTBot and ClaudeBot collect content to train models. Blocking them does not remove you from ChatGPT search or Claude search, which use OAI-SearchBot and Claude-SearchBot. If you want to appear in AI answers, keep the search crawlers allowed.

Can this tool guarantee that ChatGPT or Google will quote my page?

No tool can. Answer engines decide for themselves. This checker tests the fundamentals that make a page eligible and easy to quote: access, clear answers, structure and trust. It does not test live answers or rankings.

Why does my page need an answer near the top?

Answer engines look for a short, self-contained passage they can quote. A summary of about 30 to 60 words near the top, and a brief answer under each question heading, gives them exactly that.

Why did the checker say my server blocked it?

Some firewalls and security plugins turn away any program that is not a normal browser. If your server did that to this checker it may do the same to AI crawlers. Allow the search crawlers you want in your firewall or CDN settings and check again.

Does the checker store my page or my results?

No. FileXL fetches the page you enter, analyses it and sends you the report. Nothing about the page or the report is saved on the server. Your last scores are remembered only in your own browser so you can see your progress.
