Find out if AI answers mention your business.

People now ask ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude and Perplexity what they used to type into Google. Arva SEO shows whether those answers can reach, quote and name your website, and what to change.

The AI crawler check and AI readiness score are free on every plan. No credit card required.

01AI crawlers

First, can AI reach your website?

A free check of your robots.txt against 19 AI crawlers, grouped by what they do, so you only block what you mean to.

  • Answer crawlers, such as OAI-SearchBot, Claude-SearchBot and PerplexityBot, which fetch pages to cite them
  • Training crawlers, such as GPTBot and ClaudeBot, which collect text to train models
  • Googlebot and Bingbot, which feed Google’s AI Overviews and AI Mode, and Copilot
  • What each block means for your visibility, in plain words

02Four measures

How visible you are in AI search.

01

AI readiness score, free

From each site audit: how easily AI answer engines can read and quote your pages. It checks snippets, text hidden until clicked, question headings with direct answers, authors, dates and sources, each tied to published guidance.

02

AI answer tracking

Ask ChatGPT, Claude and Gemini the questions your customers ask, every week or month, with web search on. See whether answers cite or name you, what they said, and which competitors they name.

03

Google AI Overviews

Weekly rank checks show which of your keywords bring up an AI Overview and, on paid plans, whether it cites your website.

04

Visits from AI assistants

From Google Analytics: visits from ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, Copilot, Claude and others, free with the Analytics connection you already have.

03What to do about it

Visibility beyond your own pages.

AI answers lean on what the rest of the web says about a business, so the advice covers both.

  • Questions to track, starting with the question-style searches in your Search Console
  • Your share of answers against competitors, week by week
  • The sites AI answers cite for your questions, as places to be mentioned
  • Steps backed by published guidance and research, such as keeping your Business Profile current and being mentioned where your customers look
  • FAQ structured data from your question headings, in Content Studio

04Plans

What’s free, and what isn’t.

Most of it is free on every plan. Compare the plans.

  • Free on every plan: the AI crawler check, the AI readiness score and visits from AI assistants
  • AI answer tracking: on any plan with your own OpenAI, Anthropic or Google Gemini key; the AI company bills the searches and Arva SEO adds nothing
  • AI Overview citations: 10, 30 or 50 keywords on Starter, Professional and Business, and more for $1.50 a month per 100 keywords on any plan

05FAQ

Questions, answered.

Something else? Ask us.

What is AI search visibility?

How often AI answers, from ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, Perplexity and Google’s AI Overviews, name or cite your business when people ask about what you offer. It depends on whether AI crawlers can reach your pages, how easily your pages can be quoted, and what other websites say about you.

Can Arva SEO tell me if ChatGPT mentions my business?

Yes. AI answer tracking asks ChatGPT, Claude and Gemini your customers’ questions with web search on, and records whether each answer cites your website or names your business, and the same for your competitors. It runs on your own AI key.

Should I block AI crawlers?

Blocking answer crawlers keeps your pages out of those assistants’ answers. Blocking training crawlers doesn’t remove you from answers; it’s a business choice. The crawler check shows which is which before you decide.

Do I need an llms.txt file?

It’s optional. No major AI search engine has said it uses llms.txt, so the readiness score lists it as information only, not as a fix.

Is the AI search visibility tool free?

The AI crawler check, the AI readiness score and visits from AI assistants are free on every plan. AI answer tracking uses your own AI key, and AI Overview citations are included on paid plans.
