Frequently Asked Questions

RankGap asks AI platforms (ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude, Gemini) questions about your industry and checks if they mention your brand in their responses. For example, if you run an SEO tool, we ask 'What are the best SEO tools?' and see if you get recommended. This helps you understand your visibility in AI-powered search.

Our comprehensive audit analyzes 17 metrics: AI Crawlability, Content Structure, Schema Markup, Content Freshness, Date Signals, Topical Authority, Citation Potential, Platform Visibility, Core Web Vitals, Mobile Friendliness, Security, Social Meta Tags, Content Depth, E-E-A-T Signals, Image Optimization, Internal Linking, and Readability. You get a score for each plus prioritized action items.
