What this free check tells you

People are increasingly asking AI search tools for recommendations instead of opening a long list of search results. This free check asks Perplexity a live question using the service and city you enter, then looks for whether it references your website in the response.

If your site is cited, that is a useful positive signal. If it is not, that does not mean your business is failing; it means you have identified a visibility gap worth understanding. The accompanying report explains the result and the first areas to investigate.

Important: a single query is a directional snapshot, not a full AI-search score. Different platforms, prompt wording, user location and time can change the answer. For a proper programme, define a relevant query set and track it consistently over time.

How to get a useful result

01

Use the domain customers see

Enter the public website domain you want to test, not a Facebook page, an old domain or a staging address.

02

Be specific about the query

Combine the service and location, such as “roof repair Christchurch” or “estate planning lawyer Wellington”.

03

Read the context

A named business is not the only signal. Look at the competitors, cited sources and the wording of the answer.

04

Use the result to decide what to fix

The next work is usually stronger entity information, local proof, well-structured service content, and legitimate authority signals.

What the checker does not do

The tool does not promise that you will appear in every AI answer, and it does not replace a full technical, local SEO, content or citation audit. It also does not test every possible wording or every AI platform. That is deliberate: this is a fast, useful starting point for a business owner, not an inflated score designed to create anxiety.

Frequently Asked Questions

The checker sends one live Perplexity query based on the service and location you enter, then looks for whether your website is referenced in that response and which competing businesses are named. It gives you a useful starting signal, not a complete multi-platform audit.
No. The free checker currently uses Perplexity because it provides live web-grounded responses. ChatGPT, Gemini and Google AI Overviews each behave differently, so a full AEO assessment requires a defined query set and repeated monitoring across the platforms relevant to your customers.
Use the service and location you want customers to search for, such as “emergency plumber Christchurch”, “family lawyer Auckland”, or “accountant Wellington”. Specific phrasing produces a more useful directional result than a broad category alone.
Arise SEO sends an AI Visibility Report to the email address you provide, including the result of your check and practical next steps. You can then decide whether you would like to discuss the result with Pew.
