Commercial Consulting Service

GEO Audit

Technical and visibility diagnostics investigating how AI search engines read, extract, and represent your web domain, with findings grounded strictly in available evidence.

CiteFrame is Ignacio Rotth’s commercial GEO auditing service. GEO-Copilot is the separate open-source developer tool.

Service Overview & Target Audience

The GEO Audit investigates how modern generative search systems—including OpenAI SearchGPT / ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google Gemini, and Claude—crawl, extract, index, and cite your web domain. Rather than relying on generic SEO checklists or speculative ranking tricks, every audit is anchored in observable crawler diagnostics, structured data analysis, and multi-provider prompt probing.

This service is designed for:

  • Engineering and Technical Leads: Teams requiring code-level clarity on whether their server-side rendering, robots.txt directives, and semantic HTML are digestible by AI bot crawlers without client hydration failures.
  • Product Owners and Founders: Builders seeking an objective evaluation of how their systems, products, and technical claims are synthesized by LLMs when users query relevant categories.
  • Organizations Preparing for Machine Retrieval: Companies implementing standard context manifests (/llms.txt) and interconnected Schema.org knowledge graphs to ground AI agent responses in verified facts.

What the Technical & Visibility Evaluation Covers

The diagnostic follows a rigorous 5-pillar technical framework grounded in information-retrieval research:

Pillar 1

Crawler Ingestion & Infrastructure

Audit of robots.txt access for AI search bots (OAI-SearchBot, PerplexityBot, Claude-Web), server-side rendering (SSR/SSG) availability, HTTP header negotiation, and zero-JS static extraction baselines.

Pillar 2

Knowledge Graph & Entity Grounding

Validation of interconnected Schema.org JSON-LD @graph schemas, Wikidata entity grounding (sameAs), author attribution, and corporate entity disambiguation.

Pillar 3

Information Gain & Factual Density

Assessment of observable factual density, quantitative claims, comparison tables, domain-specific terminology, and ambiguous promotional prose.

Pillar 4

Modular BLUF Answer Architecture

Structure analysis for Bottom Line Up Front (BLUF) lead paragraphs, atomic self-contained semantic units (200–500 tokens), clean comparison tables, and accessible descriptive image metadata.

Pillar 5

Multi-Provider Model Probing & Visibility

Structured prompt probing across leading generative models to test brand recognition, factual recall accuracy, competitor comparative context, and presence or absence of citations.

Distinction: Open-Source GEO-Copilot vs. GEO Audit Service

To maintain clarity between open-source tools and commercial consulting, the boundaries are strictly defined:

Developer Package

GEO-Copilot (Open Source)

  • Free, open-source CLI and Model Context Protocol (MCP) server on npm (@geo-copilot/cli).
  • Automated, deterministic 0–100 static rule scoring and file artifact generators.
  • Runs locally inside terminal or AI IDE environments (Cursor, Claude Desktop).
  • Designed for self-directed engineering linting during local development.
Expert Diagnostic

GEO Audit (Commercial Service)

  • Tailored, end-to-end consulting engagement conducted directly on your domain.
  • Multi-provider live model probing, competitor visibility analysis, and crawl diagnostics.
  • Delivers bespoke Executive Summary, Action Implementation Brief, and implementation artifacts requiring review and testing in your codebase.
  • Includes architectural review, Schema.org modeling, and personalized consultation.

Available Deliverables

Clients receive structured, evidence-backed documentation designed for both executive decision-makers and engineering teams:

1. Technical & Visibility Diagnostic

Full technical assessment of crawler accessibility, bot header responses, structured data errors, and model probe responses across generative engines.

2. Executive GEO Summary

Strategic breakdown of your domain's AI visibility posture, verified evidence availability states, competitor landscape, and high-level priorities.

3. Action & Implementation Brief

Prioritized engineering roadmap categorized by change safety (Class A non-breaking files, Class B head tags, Class C structural route updates).

4. Machine-Readable Context Blueprints

Tailored, copy-ready specifications for /llms.txt, connected JSON-LD @graph schemas, and robots.txt bot permissions.

Scope Boundaries & Non-Speculative Standards

In accordance with our strict evidence integrity doctrine, the audit adheres to factual boundaries:

Evidence-Dependent Analysis

Deliverables and findings depend strictly on evidence available during the audit period. Citation evidence can be UNMEASURED when AI models omit explicit web citations, and competitor evidence may be unavailable depending on query retrieval behavior.

No Speculative Ranking Guarantees

Generative AI search engines are non-deterministic, proprietary systems operated by third-party providers (OpenAI, Google, Anthropic, Perplexity) with frequent algorithmic retraining. The GEO Audit provides diagnostic measurement and engineering remediation; it cannot guarantee specific citation frequency, mention inclusion, search rankings, or commercial outcomes.

Engineering Validation Required

Generated code blueprints and implementation artifacts require review and testing within the client's codebase before being deployed to production.
