Free AEO, GEO & Media Placement Tools
Nine free tools we built for our own clients and opened up to everyone. No signup, no credit card — measure your AI visibility, generate the files AI crawlers want, explore query fan-out and People Also Ask, and model the ROI of your paid and tier-1 media placements in seconds.
Audit your AI visibility
Baseline where you stand today across ChatGPT, Google AI Overviews, Perplexity, and Claude — brand mentions, share of voice, and crawler access.
Free AI Visibility Audit
Free full-site AI visibility scan
DA, backlinks, schema coverage, AI Overview mentions, and ChatGPT/Perplexity/Claude/Grok citation tests for any domain. Returns a downloadable PDF report you can share with your team or use as a client pitch leave-behind.
Am I in ChatGPT?
30-second LLM mention check
Instantly check whether ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, and Grok mention your brand for a given query. The fastest way to baseline AI visibility before you optimize — use it once to see where you stand, then again after every content or PR push.
LLM Mention Monitor
Share of voice across AI Overviews + ChatGPT
Aggregated mention data for any domain or brand across Google AI Overviews and ChatGPT answers. Returns total mentions, AI search volume, top cited source domains, and the competing brands winning your category — the closest thing to Google Search Console for generative search.
AI Crawler Indexability Checker
Is your site blocking ChatGPT & Perplexity?
Fetches your robots.txt and live-tests 13 AI crawlers — GPTBot, ChatGPT-User, PerplexityBot, ClaudeBot, Google-Extended, and more — to reveal exactly who can and can't index your site. Fix the blocks here before you invest in AEO or GEO content.
Research what to write
Reverse-engineer the queries, sub-queries, and follow-up questions AI engines actually run — so one page can answer the whole fan-out and earn the citation.
Free AI Search Query Fan-Out Tool
See the sub-queries AI engines really run
Enter a seed query and get the reformulations, related questions, comparisons, adjacent topics, and entity expansions that ChatGPT, AI Overviews, and Perplexity silently generate behind the scenes. Ships with a ready-to-use H2 content brief so one page can answer the whole fan-out.
Free People Also Ask Explorer
PAA tree + follow-ups for any query
Predict the People Also Ask questions Google shows for any query and the follow-ups that expand under each. Export as CSV for briefs, or copy drop-in FAQ JSON-LD schema for your next page to win FAQ rich results and AI citations in one move.
Ask Smart Money Media
Free AI chat trained on our full library
Ask any question about AEO, GEO, LLM SEO, PR strategy, media placements, or reputation. Answers are cited back to our pillar guides, blog, glossary, and case studies — no signup, no hallucinated frameworks, no fabricated stats.
Publish & prove ROI
Ship the technical files AI crawlers want and turn earned coverage into a defensible EMV, pipeline, and cost-per-lead number.
llms.txt Generator
Open-spec manifest for AI crawlers
Generates a properly formatted /llms.txt file for your domain in under a minute. Recommended pages, brand description, and priority paths — the manifest Claude, Perplexity, ChatGPT browse, and enterprise RAG pipelines use to decide which URLs to cite.
Media Placement ROI Calculator
EMV, impressions, leads & pipeline
Live math for paid editorial placements, syndicated pickups, and tier-1 coverage. Models EMV, CPM, CTR, lead conversion, and downstream pipeline revenue from a single placement or blended campaign — the same math we use to defend six- and seven-figure PR budgets.
