Paste a URL. We fetch the real page and check it against the format signals AI Overviews and answer engines look for before quoting a source — no guesswork, no simulated score.
Nothing here is simulated — each step actually happens when you click "Grade my page."
Drop in any live page — yours or a competitor's.
Our server fetches the live HTML — the same thing an AI engine would see.
A weighted score, the exact text an AI might quote, and the top fixes to prioritize.
Each check is scored and weighted, then rolled into your overall score.
Is there a real answer right after the heading, or is it buried under an intro?
Do your headings match how people actually ask questions?
Is the opening answer roughly 40–60 words — complete but quotable?
Structured content gets lifted into AI answers far more often than plain text.
Generic openers like "In this article..." push the real answer further down.
Does your title read like something someone would actually type?
More and more searches now end at an AI-generated answer instead of a visit to your site.
AI Overviews now answer many queries directly on the results page — before anyone clicks through.
ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Gemini are becoming a first stop for research, skipping search entirely.
If an AI engine can't extract your answer cleanly, ranking #1 on Google won't get you cited.
Straight answers about how the AI Overview Checker works and what to do with the results.
It's the AI-generated answer box Google now shows above normal search results for many queries — answering the question directly, often before anyone clicks through to a website.
No. It reads your page's real HTML and checks it against known formatting patterns AI Overviews prefer — no AI model is called, so it's instant and free to run.
No tool can guarantee citation, since AI engines don't publish their exact selection process. A high score means your page has the right foundation, which meaningfully improves your odds.
It works best on standard HTML/WordPress pages in English. Sites that load content via JavaScript, block external fetching, or require login may not scan accurately.
