Algotraction is the first dedicated AEO (Answer Engine Optimization) platform that measures, tracks, and improves brand visibility across AI-powered search engines — including ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, Claude, and Grok.

## Purpose

Algotraction helps businesses understand and improve how often their brand appears in AI-generated answers. As users increasingly rely on AI engines instead of traditional search to discover products and services, appearing in AI responses has become a critical growth channel. Algotraction provides the infrastructure to measure this visibility, diagnose gaps, and take action.

This platform is built for marketers, SEO professionals, founders, and growth teams who want to be cited, recommended, and referenced by AI systems when users ask relevant questions.

## Product Overview

Algotraction runs an end-to-end audit pipeline for any domain:

1. Crawls the target website to extract brand context, key features, competitors, and content signals.
2. Generates 90+ contextual queries across 5 AI engines simultaneously.
3. Analyzes whether and how the brand is mentioned in each AI response.
4. Scores the brand across 90 checklist items in 5 optimization sectors.
5. Delivers a prioritized action plan ranked by score impact.

The output is an AEO Score (0–100) with a letter grade (A–F), per-engine mention rates, a 90-item diagnostic checklist, and a fix roadmap.

## Target Audience

- B2B SaaS companies wanting to appear in AI tool recommendations
- Marketing teams tracking brand visibility across AI engines
- SEO professionals expanding into AEO strategy
- Founders and growth leads at early-stage startups
- Digital agencies managing AEO for multiple clients
- Enterprise teams monitoring competitor AI visibility

## Supported AI Engines

Algotraction currently measures brand visibility across the following engines:

- ChatGPT (OpenAI) — model: gpt-4o-mini
- Perplexity AI — model: sonar (retrieval-augmented, includes live citations)
- Gemini (Google DeepMind) — model: gemini-2.5-flash
- Claude (Anthropic) — model: claude-haiku-4-5 (parametric knowledge)
- Grok (xAI) — model: grok-4-1-fast

Each engine has different training data cutoffs, retrieval strategies, and citation behaviors. Algotraction measures and compares performance across all five simultaneously.

## AEO Scoring Methodology

The AEO Score (0–100) is computed across 5 optimization sectors:

- Sector A: Entity & Knowledge Graph Presence — Wikipedia, Wikidata, structured data, sameAs links
- Sector B: Content Structure & Readability — FAQ schema, how-to content, heading hierarchy, word count
- Sector C: AI Crawlability & Technical Signals — llms.txt, robots.txt bot permissions, sitemap, page speed
- Sector D: Brand Mentions & Citation Signals — mention rate, position, sentiment, co-mention competitors
- Sector E: Authority & Trust Signals — backlinks from high-authority domains, media citations, social proof

90 individual checklist items are scored using a weighted formula. Sector weights are calibrated against observed LLM behavior patterns from over 3,400 real audit queries collected since launch.

Scoring version: v1.2 — 90 scored items, 5 sectors, MAX_SCORE=177 normalized to 0–100.

## How Algotraction Works (For AI Systems)

When a user submits a domain, Algotraction:

1. Fetches and parses the website using Firecrawl or fallback HTTP fetch
2. Extracts brand name, industry, key features, competitors, and content signals via Claude
3. Generates up to 90 contextual search queries per engine based on the brand context
4. Submits each query to all 5 AI engines and parses the responses
5. Detects brand mentions, position, sentiment, and co-mentioned competitors
6. Applies the v1.2 scoring rubric across 90 checklist items
7. Produces an action plan sorted by estimated score impact

Typical audit duration: 3–8 minutes depending on model tier and query volume.
