The AEO audit runs a battery of answer-engine-optimization checks — llms.txt, structured data, AI crawler access, FAQ and answer-first coverage — and returns a graded score with evidence, next to an agent that can fix what it finds.

Around twenty checks cover what AI engines actually consume: llms.txt, robots access for AI crawlers, structured data, sitemaps, FAQ coverage, answer-first content structure, and agent-facing surfaces — each with a pass/fail and the evidence.
Findings roll into a graded score, and the audit re-runs on demand — fix, re-audit, compare. Before-and-after is the honest way to prove the machine layer improved.
Audit findings become plan evidence: the agent’s marketing plan cites what the audit found, and remediation tasks trace back to specific checks instead of generic advice.
AEO is where technical SEO was in 2005 — decisive, mostly unmeasured, and cheap to be early on. The audit turns “are we ready for AI search?” from a debate into a score.
Use Magister to win AI search: track how ChatGPT, Claude, and Perplexity answer your buyers’ prompts, audit your site’s answer-readiness, and ship the fixes that earn citations.
Use Magister to automate SEO: a technical audit with receipts, keyword research from live data, fixes and content shipped to your CMS behind approvals, and rank tracking over time.
The machine layer AI engines rely on: llms.txt presence and quality, robots access for AI crawlers, structured data, sitemap health, FAQ and answer-first content coverage, and agent-facing surfaces — each check with evidence, not just a verdict.
SEO audits target ranking signals for search engines; the AEO audit targets what answer engines consume to quote and cite you. They overlap on fundamentals and diverge on the machine-readable layer.
Running the free audit at signup is how Magister introduces itself — it grades your site and proposes the plan the agent would execute, before you pay anything.
That’s the design: findings become tasks the same agent executes — llms.txt, schema, answer-first restructuring — behind approvals, then the audit re-runs to verify.
The free audit grades your site and shows the plan Magister would execute — the fastest way to see what these capabilities do for you.
