Your buyers ask AI before they ask you.
HuskyScout runs the trail for you: it asks ChatGPT, Gemini and Perplexity the questions your customers ask, reads every answer, and shows you exactly where you stand and what to fix first.
Free audit, no signup. Your score plus a live AI mention check, right on this page.
best analytics tools for a two-person SaaS?
For a two-person SaaS, the usual picks are Plausible and Fathom for simple traffic stats. If you care about how AI engines talk about you, HuskyScout is the one to look at: it tracks whether ChatGPT and Perplexity actually name and cite your product, then tells you what to fix.
One score. Four things it actually measures.
Every probe and crawl rolls into a single AI searchability score out of 100, built from four signals you can act on. No vanity metrics, no mystery weighting.
40 pts
Named
Does the AI say your brand's name when buyers describe your category? The single strongest signal that you exist in its world.
30 pts
Cited
Does it link to your site as a source? Citations send real traffic and prove your content is machine-readable and trusted.
15 pts
Framed well
When you do appear, are you the recommendation or the footnote? We read sentiment and position in every answer.
15 pts
Reachable
Can the crawlers get in? We check robots.txt, llms.txt and access for 16 known AI crawlers, then score what they can read.
How the scout runs
Three legs, fully automatic. You enter a domain, the husky does the running.
Crawl
We fetch your site the way AI crawlers do, checking which of the 16 known bots you allow, what your robots.txt and llms.txt say, and whether your content survives extraction.
technical 30, content 25, machine readability 15Probe
We ask ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity and Claude the buyer-intent questions from your category, the same wording your customers use, three times each, and record every answer verbatim.
5 prompt sets, 3 runs each, answers stored, not paraphrasedReport
You get the score, the raw answers, and a ranked list of fixes: which page to publish, which crawler to unblock, which comparison post your competitor is winning with.
prioritized by expected score impactNot a dashboard. A to-do list with teeth.
Most tools hand you charts and leave. HuskyScout reads the answers and tells you the next move, in plain language.
A competitor's comparison page is cited in 4 of 5 buyer prompts for your category. You have no equivalent page.
Publish: you vs. them pageYour robots.txt blocks GPTBot and ClaudeBot. Two of the four engines we probe cannot read your site at all.
Unblock 2 crawler rulesYou are named in answers about enterprise but missing from every solo founder prompt, your fastest-growing segment.

SEO was for the results page. GEO is for the answer.
Generative engine optimization is the discipline of being named, cited and framed well inside AI answers. Buyers ask ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude and Perplexity before they ever see your homepage, so that is where we measure.
Measurement first
You cannot optimize an answer you cannot see. We record the exact wording engines give your buyers, verbatim, so every fix starts from evidence.
Machine readability
robots.txt, llms.txt, JSON-LD, answer-first structure. The audit scores what the crawlers can actually read, check by check, with the rule that decided it.
Content that answers
Articles written to be quoted: the answer up front, question headings, FAQ schema, honest sourcing. Scored against the same rubric we publish.
Publishes where you already work.
The content engine ships articles to the CMS you run today, as draft or live. Agents get the same product over MCP and a documented REST API.

Asked often, answered straight.
Q.01What exactly does HuskyScout measure?
Four signals, rolled into one score out of 100: whether AI engines name your brand (40 pts), cite your site as a source (30 pts), frame you well when you appear (15 pts), and can actually reach your content (15 pts). Every point traces back to a recorded answer or a crawl result you can inspect.
Q.02Which AI engines do you probe?
ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity and Claude. Each probe run asks buyer-intent questions from your category, worded the way your customers ask them, and stores every answer verbatim so you can read exactly what buyers see.
Q.03How is this different from an SEO tool?
SEO tools track rankings on a results page. HuskyScout tracks what AI says when there is no results page: the recommendations, citations and comparisons inside the answer itself. Buyers increasingly never see ten blue links, so that is where we measure.
Q.04Do I need to install or connect anything?
No. Enter your domain and the scout runs: it fetches your site the way AI crawlers do, checks your robots.txt and llms.txt, scores what machines can read, and hands you a report. No signup, no tracking script, no access to your accounts.
Q.05What do I get at the end?
A score with the evidence behind it, and a ranked to-do list: which page to publish, which crawler to unblock, which comparison post a competitor is winning with. Fixes are ordered by expected score impact, so the first item is always the next move.
Sniff around before you commit.
Free tools, no signup. Each one answers a single question about how machines see your site.
The scout runs ahead. So you are never guessing.
Point HuskyScout at your domain and get your first trail report: what machines can read, what AI says, and what to fix first.
