Our Own AI Visibility Score: We Ran Our Audit on Ourselves
We ran the same AI visibility audit we perform for clients on our own website. Our initial score: 72 out of 100. Not perfect, and we're not pretending it is. Here's exactly what we found, what we fixed, and where we still have room to improve. Publishing our own numbers — including the imperfect ones — is how we demonstrate that our business growth methodology works and that we hold ourselves to the same standards we set for clients.
What We Scored Well On
Schema markup: 95/100. Comprehensive JSON-LD across all pages — Organization, Service, FAQPage, Article, BreadcrumbList, and more. This is foundational to our service offering, so it better be perfect.
AI crawler access: 100/100. robots.txt configured to allow GPTBot, ClaudeBot, PerplexityBot, and Google-Extended. llms.txt file present and current. No barriers to AI indexing.
Content depth: 85/100. Strong topic cluster coverage across our seven service pillars with AI-citeable opening paragraphs on every post.
Where We Found Gaps
Citation consistency: 68/100. We found three directories with slightly different business descriptions and one with an outdated phone format. Minor inconsistencies, but exactly the type that erodes AI engine confidence. Fixed within a week.
Review volume: 55/100. As a newer brand, our review count is below the threshold where AI engines give maximum confidence. This is a gap that closes over time with consistent service delivery — not a technical fix.
Content freshness: 70/100. Some blog posts hadn't been updated in 4+ months. AI engines weight recency, and stale content signals reduced authority. We implemented a quarterly content refresh schedule to maintain freshness signals.
What We Fixed
Within two weeks of the self-audit, we corrected all citation inconsistencies, updated stale content, added three new blog posts to underserved topic clusters, and refreshed our llms.txt with current cornerstone content links. Re-audit score: 82 out of 100. The 10-point improvement came entirely from fixes we could have made months earlier — evidence that regular self-auditing is essential for maintaining business growth momentum.

Publishing imperfect numbers builds more trust than claiming perfection. Our clients can see that we use the same methodology on ourselves, that we're honest about gaps, and that we take action on findings. This transparency is our strongest sales tool — because a company that audits itself publicly is a company that will audit your business honestly.
