Citehound is an AI Visibility Scanner designed to help businesses understand and improve their presence in AI answer engines. It offers a free scan that checks 16 key areas across three pillars: Discoverability, Technical Foundation, and Content & Trust. The scanner uses 10 AI crawlers and provides live data, with no email required and all processing done in the browser. After identifying areas for improvement, Citehound offers vertical-specific GEO and AEO playbooks to help fix issues. The tool analyzes how well AI crawlers can reach and parse your pages, and assesses the credibility of your content. It generates actionable insights, including copy-paste JSON-LD and robots.txt snippets tailored to your site's data. For advanced features, Citehound Pro offers deeper analysis beyond the homepage, citation tracking, and detailed page-level reports. The platform also integrates with AI assistants like Claude and ChatGPT, allowing users to leverage Citehound's tools directly within those environments. Citehound also publishes ongoing research on AI readiness, providing valuable data and case studies for businesses adapting to the shift from traditional search to AI-driven answers.
