FREE TOOL
Free AEO checker: can an answer engine use this page?
A free Searchmaxxed tool: one URL, the structural findings, and the fixes in order.
THE TOOL
What this tool does
Eight structural checks on a single page, scored out of 100. The checks cover whether an answer engine can locate a claim, work out who is making it, and quote it without guessing. Most on-page audits skip that last part.
You paste one URL. We fetch the live page and parse its structure. Each check comes back as pass, warn or fail with the evidence we found. The fixes arrive in the order that changes an engine's decision first.
WHAT YOU LEAVE WITH
You leave with a score out of 100 for one page. You also get eight checks with the evidence found, and the fixes in the order that moves an engine first.
READINESS
READY WHEN YOU ARE
Your evidence will appear here after the live run finishes.
The panel keeps the primary finding, supporting evidence and next action together so the result is easy to use.
THE SHORT ANSWER
Answer engine optimisation makes a page easy for an AI engine to read, trust and quote. An AEO checker reads one live page and reports what the page carries. A heading shaped like a question, with a self-contained answer beneath it. Declared structured data and a working canonical. Enough substance to quote.
WHY
Why this tool exists.
An answer engine has to find the passage on your page that answers a question. It has to confirm who wrote it and quote it cleanly. Most pages fail on the mechanics. They carry no answerable heading, no structured data, a broken canonical, or a title about the company instead of the job. This check reads the live page and gives you each fix.
Readiness checkers score against a generic technical checklist. This one scores the page against what answer engines need before they quote it. A heading shaped like a question, with a self-contained answer beneath it. Declared entity data. A page a crawler can reach and quote.
What does answer engine optimization mean?
It means writing and structuring a page so a machine can lift a correct, attributable answer out of it. A search engine only has to decide whether your page is relevant. An answer engine has to find the passage. It also has to trust that the passage answers the question and know who is making the claim.
The mechanics carry most of the weight. Plenty of well-written pages never get quoted. Nothing on them looks like an answer, or the structured data that names the publisher is missing.
How do you check an AEO score?
Paste one URL. The tool fetches the live page and parses its structure. It runs eight weighted checks. One H1 that names the job, and subheadings shaped like questions. Declared JSON-LD, and a meta description that states the answer. A workable title length and a self-referencing canonical. Enough body text to quote, and internal links that place the page in a topic.
Each check returns pass, improve or fail with the evidence found on the page, and the weighted result becomes a score out of 100. The fixes are ordered by what would change an engine's decision first rather than by how easy they are.
How do you improve answer engine optimization?
Start with the headings. Rewrite each one as the question a buyer types. Answer it in full in the first two sentences underneath. Do not lean on the paragraph above. That one change beats every other, because it creates the quotable unit.
Then declare the entity. Structured data ties the page to a real organisation. References to profiles an engine can verify elsewhere give the claim an owner. A page that asserts expertise with nothing behind it can be quoted, and it will not be.
Then remove ambiguity. One canonical, one H1, no content that only exists after JavaScript executes. An engine working inside a time budget takes the page it can read.
Who needs an AEO check?
Anyone about to invest in content, because it is cheaper to fix the template than to rewrite fifty published pages. Run it on the money page that matters most and repeat the pattern that comes back.
Also anyone whose content is good and unquoted. That combination almost always means the writing is fine and the structure is not.
What does the check not judge?
It reads one page the way a crawler sees it. It does not judge whether your answer is correct, current or better than a competitor's. That judgement decides whether an engine keeps quoting you.

QUESTIONS
What people ask about this tool.
Is this a technical SEO audit?
+
No. It checks one page for the things an answer engine needs before it will quote it. A full technical audit covers the whole site, crawl budget, indexation and performance.
Why one page instead of the whole site?
+
The mechanics that decide whether a page gets quoted are page-level. Fixing the pattern on one money page and repeating it beats a site-wide score with no action attached.
Does the check need access to my site?
+
No. It reads the page the way any crawler would, from the public URL.
What counts as an answerable heading?
+
A heading in the shape of the question a buyer types, with a self-contained answer in the first sentences beneath it. A heading that names a product or a benefit is not answerable.
