GEO Audit Report: Know Your AI Visibility
Mercury's GEO Audit Report delivers the definitive analysis of your brand's visibility across every major AI search platform. Our proprietary 6-dimension framework measures exactly how generative engines perceive, cite, and recommend your business.
What is a GEO Audit?
GEO Audit Report is a comprehensive diagnostic analysis that measures how visible and authoritative your brand is within AI-powered search and recommendation systems.
Unlike traditional SEO audits that focus on Google rankings and backlink profiles, a GEO audit specifically evaluates how large language models (LLMs) interpret, cite, and recommend your brand. Each of the 6 dimensions is scored 0-100, then combined into a weighted composite score that represents your overall GEO readiness. Gartner predicts traditional search engine volume will decline by 25% by 2026 as consumers embrace generative AI-powered search.
GEO vs Traditional SEO
GEO Audit vs. Traditional SEO Audit
The rules of discoverability have changed. Here's how GEO audits differ from conventional SEO analysis.
The Framework
The 6-Dimension GEO Audit Framework
Each dimension scored 0-100, combined into a weighted composite GEO Score (0-100).
AI Citability & Visibility
Will AI models cite this content? Measures whether your content is structured, sourced, and formatted in a way that AI models naturally reference and cite in their responses.
Content Quality
Depth, specificity, answer-rich format? Evaluates the depth, specificity, and richness of your content. AI models favor detailed, well-structured answers over thin or generic content.
E-E-A-T Signals
Experience, Expertise, Authoritativeness, Trust? Assesses the signals that demonstrate your credibility: expert authorship, authoritative backlinks, trusted reviews, and proven experience.
Technical GEO
Crawlability, indexability, structured data? Audits whether AI crawlers can access, parse, and understand your content through proper schema markup, robots.txt, and site architecture.
Brand Authority
Is the brand recognized by AI systems? Evaluates how well AI systems recognize your brand as a trusted entity through mentions, knowledge graph presence, and third-party validation.
Platform Optimization
Google AI Overviews, Bing Copilot, Perplexity? Analyzes your visibility and optimization for specific AI search platforms including Google AI Overviews, Bing Copilot, and Perplexity.
