Measure · the sources

The pages AI quotes and the questions it tests.

For every buying question, the check records which pages each engine cited. These are the sources winning the answers you are absent from: your shortlist of where to earn a mention. Below, the same ipmicompare.com check, 28 Sep 2026.

The questions are written from the client's own positioning and agreed before the first check. They stay fixed so that later checks are comparable.

Diagnose

Thirteen checks, fixed weights. Not a vague grade.

Can AI read the site? Thirteen technical checks with weights that never move silently, plus findings that carry no points. A check that cannot be completed (a rate limit, a timeout) is reported as inconclusive, never as a failure. Below, our own homepage.

"Instly Scout" appears in the browser title but not in the headline or first paragraph. An engine can quote the page and describe the product without naming it.

The full Scout report adds four content checks to these thirteen: one clear heading, FAQ or answer blocks, review or case-study markup, and a clear call to action. That is why the Scout report's AI readiness for this site (90/100, 29 Sep 2026) differs from the website check above (100/100). Two instruments, both shown, never blended.

Act

We do the work. You approve it before it goes live.

The measurement tells us why a site is absent. The work falls into three kinds. Nothing is published, changed or sent without a named person saying yes.

Access

Crawlers refused while browsers are served

The commonest silent blocker: a CDN or firewall rule that returns 403 to GPTBot or PerplexityBot while a browser gets 200. Looks fine to anyone checking by hand. The fix is an edge rule, re-measured the same hour.

Answer pages

One page per buyer question the site loses

Written from the client's own positioning, never a model's guess about it, with the structured data engines extract from. For instlyscout.com: five pages, published 30 Sep 2026, against the five questions in the check above.

Sources

Earn a place in the pages engines already quote

Most citations go to independent articles and round-ups, not to vendors' own sites. The source list from the check names them. Pitches are drafted from measured facts; a person sends them.

Nothing publishes itself. Drafts wait for approval. Client sites are production: only the change asked for, and never a platform, plugin or theme update.
Prove

Before and after, from the same checks, or it did not happen.

A baseline is recorded before any change. The same instrument runs again after. The dated pair is the proof; memory and screenshots are not.

Baseline: named in 0 of 20 answers. Five answer pages published and submitted to Google and Bing on 30 Sep 2026. The re-check runs no earlier than four weeks later, and the result goes on this page whichever way it lands.

One mention is one twentieth of a check, so a single reading can move five points with nothing changed. We report counts, not percentages, and call a trend only on repeated movement.

Our own scores

We run this on our own sites.

Same two instruments, same dates shown. A site can pass every technical check and still be named nowhere; that gap is the whole reason this platform exists.
