Why audit now

You can't fix what you can't see — and AI is deciding without you.

Right now, AI engines are answering questions about your category, comparing options, and making recommendations — drawing on sources you've never reviewed. Most brands have no idea whether they're being cited, ignored, or misrepresented. Our audits replace that blind spot with a precise picture and a ranked plan: which gaps to close first, and what each one is costing you in AI recommendations.

A generic "AI audit"

  • Hands you a vague readiness score and stops
  • Checks a few prompts once, with no benchmark
  • Lists problems without prioritizing them
  • Leaves you guessing what to actually do

C3 citation-gap-to-revenue audit

  • Maps the specific sources and entities to fix
  • Benchmarks your citations against named competitors
  • Prioritizes gaps by the AI recommendations they cost you
  • Delivers a sequenced roadmap you can act on Monday
Citation-readiness

What a citation-readiness audit actually checks.

Before you can earn AI citations, you need to know where you stand. We grade the specific signals that decide whether an engine surfaces — or skips — your brand, and hand you a prioritized fix list.

✓
Citation gap

Where AI cites rivals instead of you — prompt by prompt, engine by engine.

✓
Entity & knowledge-graph consistency

Whether engines actually know who you are and connect your brand to the right topics.

✓
Structured-data coverage

Schema gaps that hide your pages from the machines deciding what to quote.

✓
Content extractability

Whether your answers are structured so an engine can lift and quote a clean passage.

✓
Topical depth & demand coverage

Where your coverage runs thin against the questions buyers are actually asking.

✓
Agentic & crawler readiness

Whether AI agents and crawlers can access, render, and parse your site at all.

Every finding is graded from your live data and benchmarked against named competitors — no estimates.

The audit suite

On-demand audits, each with an action plan.

Run one to answer a specific question, or stack them for a complete picture of your AI and search readiness.

AI Visibility Audit

Where and how your brand appears across ChatGPT, Gemini, Copilot, Perplexity, and AI Overviews — for the prompts your buyers actually use.

Citation Gap Analysis

The trusted sources AI pulls from in your category — and exactly which ones cite competitors but not you, with a plan to close the gap.

Competitive Analysis

A head-to-head benchmark of your AI and search visibility against named rivals — where they win, where you can take share.

AI Content Depth

Whether your content has the topical depth and structure AI engines trust enough to quote — and where it falls short.

Agentic Readiness Audit

Whether AI agents can crawl, understand, and act on your site — the structured-data and markup readiness for agent-driven commerce.

Prioritized Roadmap

Every audit ends the same way: a ranked, effort-versus-impact action plan that turns findings into a clear sequence of moves.

How it works

From blind spot to action plan in four steps.

Scope

We define the prompts, competitors, and engines that matter to your buyers.

Analyze

We run your brand against real queries and inventory every citation and gap.

Prioritize

We rank the gaps by the recommendations they cost you, not by ease of fixing.

Roadmap

You get a clear, sequenced plan — and the option to have us execute it.

Questions

What brands ask us first.

What is an AI visibility audit?

An AI visibility audit measures whether AI engines — ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, and Google AI Overviews — cite and recommend your brand, and why. It tests real buyer prompts, benchmarks you against named competitors, checks your crawlability and entity signals, and maps the gaps to a prioritized action plan.

How is this different from a regular SEO audit?

An SEO audit looks at how you rank in traditional search. Our AI audits look at whether AI engines cite and recommend you — a different surface with different signals. We assess both worlds, but the focus here is the AI-mediated discovery most audits ignore entirely.

What do I actually receive?

A clear visibility picture across the major AI engines, a competitor benchmark, an inventory of your specific citation and entity gaps, and a prioritized roadmap ranking each fix by impact. Findings you can act on, not just a number.

Do I have to sign up for ongoing services?

No. The audits are on-demand and stand on their own. Many clients use one to get clarity first, then decide whether to have us execute the roadmap — but there's no obligation to continue.

How long does an audit take?

Most audits are delivered within days, depending on scope and the number of engines and competitors involved. We'll give you a firm timeline when we scope it.
