AI Crawler Access Report91/100 AI Access Score Fully open ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, Google AI Overviews and Microsoft Copilot can all read citant.ai. That makes you eligible to be recommended, not recommended. Whether AI names you when a buyer asks depends on what other sites say about you, which a crawler test cannot measure. 97 Live Answer Visibility 100 Search Index Foundation 68 Training Data Presence AI Access Score 91 is higher than 31 of the 84 B2B SaaS sites in our September 2026 benchmark (median 91). Full benchmark: check.citant.ai/benchmark The overall score weights Live Answer Visibility at 45%, Search Index Foundation at 30% and Training Data Presence at 25%, rounded to the nearest point. Critical findings can cap the score lower; any applied cap is stated next to it. Live Answer Visibility and Training Data Presence reflect crawler access plus on-page structure, with Training Data Presence also counting Common Crawl. Search Index Foundation reflects Googlebot and bingbot access plus indexability, sitemap and response health.

| WARNING | Title or description needs work: meta description on / is 162 chars (aim for 50 to 160) https://citant.ai/ | These are the raw material that citation snippets are built from. Your meta description is over 160 characters, so AI systems and search snippets truncate it mid-sentence. Character counts are for the decoded text, so an entity like & counts as one character, not five. | | WARNING | Not present in Common Crawl | Common Crawl feeds training data across the AI industry; absence here means most future models never read you during training. | | INFO | Open Graph incomplete: missing og:image | OG tags control how shared and cited links render on every platform. | | INFO | No llms.txt found | llms.txt is an emerging convention some AI crawlers read for site guidance. Adding one is a five minute quick win. | | INFO | Verify your Bing index manually | Copilot and ChatGPT search lean on Bing's index; if Bing has not indexed you, two of six AI platforms cannot cite you. Automated Bing verification is unreliable without authenticated APIs, so we will not fake it. | | INFO | Hosted on Hostinger shared hosting | Response headers identify Hostinger's shared hosting platform. Hostinger applies server-level per-crawler rate limits the site owner cannot tune, and a cache in front can hide them from a one-time test; the cache-busted origin probe in this scan is what checks for that. Header evidence: platform: hostinger |

What this scan cannot seeThis report measures whether AI systems can READ your site. It cannot measure whether AI RECOMMENDS you: your Share of Model, which competitors get cited in your place, or whether your content answers the questions buyers actually ask AI. That requires prompt-testing against your named competitors across ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, Gemini, Copilot and Google AI Overviews. That is the AI Search Audit by Citant.ai: a fixed-scope engagement at $440 that maps your citation gaps, names the competitors winning your queries, and hands you a prioritized plan. Our crawler tests send each bot's user agent from our own servers, not from the AI companies' verified IP ranges. Some firewalls, including Cloudflare, verify crawlers by network identity rather than user agent. That means a site can challenge our test request while allowing the real, verified crawler. When that happens this scan over-reports blocking; it never under-reports it. The Googlebot result is the most exposed to this, because fake Googlebots are the most common spoof and are policed hardest. Get every critical fixedThe AI Search Audit covers all six platforms and hands you the exact fix for every critical, with a 30 minute call.
