AI answers now decide who gets found. Grounded AEO audits what ChatGPT, Perplexity & Google AI can verify about your business, then publishes your owner-approved facts as a signed, machine-readable record (API, llms.txt, MCP, DNS) with weekly citation checks. The audit is free, no account needed, and the score can't be bought.
Hey Product Hunt 👋
I built Grounded AEO after watching AI answers get businesses wrong over and over — old addresses, dead phone numbers, or just... nothing. Every tool I found monitors what AI says about you. Nothing fixed the supply side: what the engines actually have available to cite.
So this does three things:
1. A free 30-second audit shows what ChatGPT/Perplexity/Google AI can read, verify, and trust about your domain (no account needed)
2. You review and approve your extracted facts, and they're published machine-readable everywhere engines look — API, llms.txt, a public grounding page, and an MCP endpoint agents can query directly
3. Records are Ed25519-signed and anchored by an open DNS standard (v=AEO1, spec at aeorecord.org — anyone can implement it free)
Honesty is the whole angle: the audit score can't be bought, and nothing promises "guaranteed citations" — no honest tool can. It measures weekly whether AI actually mentions you, which is the number that matters.
Would love to hear how AI answers treat YOUR business — run the free audit and tell me what it got wrong.
Ran the free audit on a side project and the result was actually useful, it flagged a couple of third party listings I had no idea were wrong. Having an llms.txt and a signed record shipped out the same week feels like a low effort way to stay honest with the AI crawlers going forward.
Really like the signed record approach and the no-account-needed audit, that lowers the bar a lot. One thing that would help me though is a way to see exactly which line or claim in the audit actually moved my score week over week, right now I get a number but not a clear "you added hours here, lost review count there" diff.
Ran my site through the audit and was surprised how many little details ChatGPT and Perplexity had wrong. Love that the score can't be bought and the fixes publish as a signed record, feels like the right approach for this AI search era.
