It runs 40+ real, rule-based checks against your live site and returns a transparent Potato Score with a prioritized list of fixes. No fabricated numbers, no single blended score you cannot act on.

SEO score vs GEO score

The SEO score measures traditional search readiness: technical health, on-page signals, and content. The GEO score measures how well AI answer engines can find, read, and cite you: crawler access, structured data, content structure, and depth. A site can be strong in one and weak in the other, so Potatometer keeps them separate instead of blending them into one misleading number.

Frequently asked questions

What is Potatometer?

Potatometer is a free tool that scores your website for both traditional SEO and GEO (generative engine optimization) — how visible you are to AI assistants like ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, and Perplexity. It runs 40+ real, verified checks against your live site and gives you a prioritized list of fixes. No fabricated scores.

What's the difference between the SEO score and the GEO score?

The SEO score measures traditional search readiness — technical health, on-page signals, and content. The GEO score measures how well AI answer engines can find, read, and cite you — crawler access, structured data, content structure, and depth. A site can be strong in one and weak in the other, so we keep them separate instead of blending them into one misleading number.

Is Potatometer free? Do I need an account?

Yes, it's free, and you can scan a site without an account. Signing in with Google is optional — it lets you save your scan history and track improvements over time.

How is the score calculated?

Every check runs against your live site and maps to a weight tied to published evidence, not folklore. We re-weight when the evidence changes — for example, we demoted llms.txt after finding no credible data behind it. You can see exactly which checks passed and failed in the Score Breakdown; we never hand you a number with nothing underneath it.

Can AI assistants actually read my site?

That's one of the core things Potatometer checks. Many AI crawlers don't execute JavaScript, so a site that looks rich to humans can be a blank page to a machine. We render your page the way an AI crawler does and flag it when your content, schema, or key answers aren't reachable.

How is Potatometer different from other AI visibility tools?

Most tools hand you a single blended 'AI visibility' number with no explanation. Potatometer shows its work: real verified checks, evidence-based weights, a transparent breakdown, and prioritized fixes. We'd rather show you why your score is what it is — and let you push back — than give you a confident number you can't act on.
