AI visibility, without the guesswork
Why answer engines skip your business, what genuinely helps, and what's being sold to you that does nothing. Every claim here is sourced, and where I don't have data, I say so instead of inventing a statistic.
AI visibility has become a market, and most of what's sold in it is confident nonsense: invented percentages, guaranteed placements, and file formats nobody reads. These pages are the opposite of that. Where there's evidence, it's linked. Where I've measured something myself, the raw numbers are published. Where I haven't, I say so.
The two things worth knowing first
- AI crawlers don't run JavaScript. Per Vercel's crawler study, none of the major AI crawlers execute JavaScript, while Googlebot does. That single asymmetry explains most cases of "we rank on Google but ChatGPT has never heard of us".
- Nobody can guarantee an AI recommends you. There's no dial. There's retrieval, training data, and probability. You can be readable and corroborated; you cannot be guaranteed.
- Most of what's sold as a fix does nothing. Google says it does not support llms.txt, and Ahrefs found 97% of valid llms.txt files got zero AI requests in May 2026. Google also deprecated FAQ rich results in 2023; by 2026 they had stopped appearing. Spend the effort on being readable instead.

What I've actually measured
The AI Visibility Index is a published scan of 35 independent Indian clinic websites, named, with every score and the method attached. The headline is deliberately unexciting: most of them are fine, with a median of 87/100. The finding is that a small minority, 4 of 35, publish no structured data at all, and those four are the lowest scorers in the sample. That's the kind of claim this site makes: narrow, checkable, and boring enough to be true.
Frequently asked questions
What is AI visibility?
Whether AI answer engines like ChatGPT, Perplexity and Google's AI surfaces can read your website, understand what your business is, and use it when answering a relevant question. It is separate from ranking on Google, because the crawlers behave differently. Most notably, AI crawlers do not execute JavaScript while Googlebot does.
Can anyone guarantee ChatGPT will recommend my business?
No. There is no ranking dial and no submission form. What can be done honestly is to make your business readable and corroborated, which raises the odds. Anyone guaranteeing placement is selling certainty they do not have.
Is llms.txt worth adding?
Not for visibility. Google has said it does not support llms.txt and has no plans to, and Ahrefs found 97% of valid llms.txt files received zero AI requests in May 2026. It is harmless but it is not the reason you are invisible.
How do I check my own site?
The Report Card is free, needs no signup, and scores any URL out of 100 with a ranked fix list in about ten seconds. Nothing is stored.
