The Beacon AEO Standard

Optimising for LLMs requires precision diagnostics. Beacon audits your content footprint against the strict technical requirements of modern AI models.

  • Server-Side Render (SSR) Verification

    AI crawlers rarely execute client-side JavaScript. We check the raw HTML payload to ensure your copy is visible.

  • Granular Bot Crawler Analysis

    We run a forensic check on your robots.txt against specific user-agents like GPTBot, ClaudeBot, and Google-Extended.

  • Structured Data Schema Depth

    Beyond simple tag presence, we recursively audit the depth and typing of your JSON-LD schemas (FAQPage, Org, etc.).

  • Cognitive Citations & Trust

    Confirm outbound references, authorship data, and internal cross-linking that establish domain expertise.
