CiteReady evaluates content across 10 dimensions to score how likely AI search engines (ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude, Google AI Overviews) are to cite it.

AEO Dimensions
1. Crawlability & Indexing (15%) — Can AI crawlers reach and index the page. Hard gate for citation.
2. Content Uniqueness (15%) — Unique, non-commodity content with original data or perspective. Google's #1 recommendation.
3. Answer Structure (15%) — Clear definitions, definitive statements, Q&A alignment. AI extracts answers from structured content.
4. Citation Formatting (12%) — Short quotable sentences, clear source attribution, statistics. Makes AI extraction easy.
5. Technical SEO (10%) — Page speed, mobile-friendly, HTTPS, clean URLs. Confirmed by Google.
6. Entity Clarity (10%) — Named people, orgs, places with entity home signals. AI builds connections from entities.
7. Attribution Quality (8%) — Author byline, publication date, cited sources, corroboration. Trust signals for AI.
8. Specificity (8%) — Concrete examples, numbers, case studies vs generic claims. Specific content is citable content.
9. Schema Markup (3%) — Structured data present and correct. Helps AI understand content type.
10. Content Freshness (4%) — Date signals, recent data points. AI prefers current information.
Scoring
Each dimension is scored 0–10, then weighted and combined into an overall CiteReadiness Score (0–100).
80–100: Highly Citable  |  60–79: Citable with improvements  |  40–59: Needs work  |  0–39: Low citability
Issue Types
Critical — Dimension score very low (0–3). Must be fixed for meaningful citability.
Improvement — Dimension has clear gaps (4–6). Specific fixes would increase score.
Suggestion — Minor enhancement for an already decent dimension (7–8).
Positive — Dimension is well-optimized (9–10).
