Analysis & Audit
AI Citation Readiness
Score how citable a page is: evidence density, claim specificity, source clarity, and the structural signals that make assistants quote you.
Why citation is a different bar from ranking
A page can rank well and still never be cited. Ranking rewards relevance and authority; citation rewards a specific, checkable claim that an assistant can attribute without risk. This audit scores the second thing.
The signals that matter most here
- Quantified claims."Cut response time by 40%" gets quoted. "Dramatically faster" does not.
- Outbound citations. Pages that cite sources are treated as more reliable than pages that assert.
- A date and an author. Assistants prefer sources they can place in time and attribute to someone.
- Entity clarity. If it is unclear who published the page, there is nothing safe to credit.
This measures whether your page is structurally citable. It cannot check whether your claims are accurate — and publishing specific numbers you cannot defend is worse than publishing none.
