Answer Engine Optimization

Right now, someone asked AI
for what you do.
Your competitor answered.

Google rankings no longer guarantee AI citations. Legible audits your website for LLM readability, generates your llms.txt file, and monitors what ChatGPT, Claude, and Perplexity say about you — then verifies every fact is correct. $49/month. Free audit on any URL.

The three problems
🔍

You’re not in the answer

When a potential customer asks ChatGPT “best [your service] in [your city]” you simply don’t appear. Your competitor does. Not because they’re better. Because their site is structured the way AI reads.

Symptom: declining inbound despite stable Google rankings

⚠️

The answer is wrong

AI is already talking about you. It has wrong opening hours. An outdated service list. A description that contradicts your homepage. Customers arrive with incorrect expectations — or don’t arrive at all.

Symptom: “I thought you were…” conversations increasing

📊

Your SEO spend isn’t transferring

Only 38% of top-ranked Google pages appear in ChatGPT responses. Backlinks, keyword density, page authority — these have near-zero correlation with LLM citation. The game changed. The tools didn’t.

Symptom: organic traffic flat despite top-10 rankings

How Legible works
01

Legibility Audit

Enter any URL. Legible scores your site on six dimensions LLMs actually care about: entity clarity, factual density, internal consistency, schema presence, freshness signals, and claim verifiability. You get a Legibility Score (A–F) and specific issues on specific pages.

Free on any URL
02

Structural Transformation

Legible generates your /llms.txt file, improves your Schema.org markup, and builds a verified ground truth fact sheet. Contradictions between your own pages are flagged and resolved. The only tool that won’t let you push false claims to AI.

Citation Monitoring

Agents query ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, and Gemini weekly with questions relevant to your business. You are alerted when you appear, when you’re absent, and when AI responses contain inaccurate information about you.

Common questions
Profound tells you what AI says but gives you no tools to fix it — $300+/month for a dashboard. Legible costs $49/month and includes the full fix layer: llms.txt generation, Schema.org improvements, and accuracy verification. Profound is built for Fortune 500 brands. Legible is built for everyone else.
An llms.txt file at yoursite.com/llms.txt gives AI crawlers a machine-readable summary of your most important facts. Without one, AI models infer facts from general content — leading to errors and misrepresentation. Legible generates yours automatically.
SEO and LLM citation optimise for completely different signals. Google uses backlinks and keyword density. LLMs use factual density, entity consistency, and structured data. Research on 700,000+ ChatGPT conversations shows classic SEO metrics have near-zero correlation with citation frequency.
Yes — permanently. The full free tier including audit, llms.txt generation, and monthly monitoring is always free for nonprofits and educational institutions. Not a time-limited trial.
