Is your site invisible to AI answers?
Search sends a third less traffic than it did a year ago. The answer engines are the new front page — and most sites quietly block the crawlers that feed them, or ship content no crawler can read. Citable finds the gaps and watches them.
No login. No card. Deterministic checks — your pages are never sent to a model.

Audit any URL.
The exact report you get for any public page, as many times as you like.
Six things that decide whether an engine can quote you.
AI crawler access
GPTBot, ClaudeBot, PerplexityBot, Google-Extended, CCBot and nine more — allowed, blocked, or silently half-blocked in your robots.txt.
Server-rendered content
Most AI crawlers don't run JavaScript. We measure how much of your page actually exists in the raw HTML.
Structured data
Whether your JSON-LD gives engines a concrete entity — an Article, Product, Organization — to attribute and cite.
Metadata & canonicals
Title, description, canonical, Open Graph, language — sized and consistent, not just present.
llms.txt & freshness
The cheap supporting signals: a valid llms.txt and a machine-readable last-modified date.
Regression watch
Re-audit on a schedule. Get a Slack or email alert the moment a deploy strips your schema or a robots rule changes.
Audit, watch, get told.

Audit any URL, free
Paste a link. In seconds you get a scored report — no login, no card. Deterministic checks, nothing sent to a model.
- 02
Add the site to watch it
Citable re-crawls on a schedule, tracks the score over time, and reads your access logs to show which AI bots actually showed up.
- 03
Get told when it breaks
A regression — a lost canonical, a new crawler block, JS-only content on a key template — pings Slack or opens a PR comment before it costs you.
The audit is free. Watching costs less than one lost lead.
Monitoring is in private beta — the waitlist tiers open in order.

Straight answers.
Do you use AI to grade my site?+
No. Every check is deterministic — parsing robots.txt, inspecting the raw HTML, validating JSON-LD against schema.org. Your pages are never sent to a language model. That's also why it's cheap enough to offer free.
Will this guarantee ChatGPT cites me?+
No — and be wary of anyone who says otherwise. Citable fixes the technical reasons an engine can't reach or parse you. Whether you're then cited also depends on your content, your authority, and each engine's own ranking.
Can it check a staging or password-protected site?+
Public URLs only for now. Monitoring for authenticated and pre-production environments is on the roadmap.
Who builds this?+
GitGud — the free-tools site the audit lives on. Citable is what the AI Answer Readiness tool turned into once people asked to run it on a schedule.
Citable started as one of GitGud's free developer tools — the AI Answer Readiness audit — and grew a schedule.
