What an AI Visibility audit actually checks.
Whether an answer engine can reach, read and cite your site is one question. How you compare with named rivals when it does is another. Go Voltic sells two separate reports rather than one blurred score, because they test two different things.
Report: two business days, target. Head-to-Head: same business day, once rivals are added. No install.
What an AI Visibility audit is.
An AI Visibility audit checks whether answer engines such as ChatGPT or Gemini can reach, read and cite a website. Go Voltic sells two: the $299 AI Visibility Report tests your own site alone, crawler access, structured data, answer shape, and a live citation test against real buyer questions. The $149 Head-to-Head asks the same questions once against your site and up to five named rivals, so you can see who an engine mentions instead of you.
Two different questions, two reports.
Neither is a subscription. Both are one-time reports.
| AI Visibility Report · $299 | Head-to-Head · $149 | |
|---|---|---|
| What it answers | Can an answer engine reach, read and cite my site? | How do I compare to named rivals when it does? |
| Rivals tested | None. Your site only. | Up to 5, named by you: a brand or a domain. |
| Buyer questions | Up to 8, drawn from your own pages, each repeated up to 6 times on one named answer engine. | The same up to 8 questions, asked once against every named brand. |
| Crawler access test | Up to 16 named AI crawlers asked whether they can reach your site. | Not tested. No rival site is ever crawled or touched. |
| What you learn about a loss | Who was cited instead, the exact passage they were quoted on, your closest page, and the change to make. | How often each rival comes up, where it lands, whether it is cited, and how it is described. |
| Delivery | Two business days, target. | Same business day, once rivals are added. |
| What it needs | Just your site. | Your site, plus the rivals, added after checkout from your account. |
The AI Visibility Report: what it checks on your site.
Six areas, each scored from something measured on your live pages rather than a rule of thumb.
Crawler access.
Up to 16 named AI crawlers asked whether they can reach your site, and whether they actually get through.
Readable without JavaScript.
Key pages loaded a second time with JavaScript switched off, so you see what a retrieval crawler that does not run it actually gets.
Answer shape.
Whether your pages answer in a form that can be lifted, page by page.
Structured data.
What you state about yourself in machine-readable form.
Entity clarity and freshness.
Whether you read as one consistent, current organization: declared profiles checked, and every page checked for a modified date.
Cited by an answer engine.
The live test: buyer questions put to one named engine with web access, repeated, with every citation recorded question by question. The report prints this reading on its own; it is never averaged away against the areas that scored well.
Delivered to your account and your inbox as a web report, a PDF, and a markdown work list you can point a coding agent at, ending in a four-week plan. See a full sample, page by page.
The Head-to-Head: what it checks against named rivals.
Same buyer questions, run once against every name, including yours.
You name the field.
Your site plus up to five rivals, a name or a domain for each, and the category a buyer would search under, added on your account page after checkout.
The same questions, run once per name.
Up to 8 buyer questions that never name a brand, asked once against every name in the field, so the comparison is apples to apples.
No rival site is ever touched.
We ask the answer engines what they say, not the rivals' servers. Nothing about a rival is crawled.
What the report shows.
Brand by brand, question by question: how often each name comes up, where it lands, whether it is cited, and how it is described.
Which one to buy first.
Start with the AI Visibility Report
- You do not yet know whether answer engines can reach, read or cite your site at all.
- You want the crawler-access, structured-data and answer-shape checks that the Head-to-Head does not run.
- You want a page-by-page fix list with a test for each change.
Add the Head-to-Head
- You already know your own visibility and want to see how you stack up against named rivals.
- You have specific competitors in mind and want their citation rate on the same questions.
- You do not need your own crawler-access or structured-data reading again.
Want either re-checked monthly instead of once? AI Visibility Pulse re-runs the AI Visibility Report every month, $149/mo, cancel anytime. It is offered from your account once your Report is delivered, because that report is the baseline it re-tests, so it is not on the pricing menu.
What neither report includes.
Neither changes your website.
Both identify what to fix. Implementing it is on you or your developer.
Neither reads pages behind a login.
Our tools never sign in.
Neither is a guarantee.
Both describe one engine, on one run of questions repeated a bounded number of times. That is a measured reading, not a promise the engine will say your name tomorrow, and not a guaranteed ranking or citation outcome.
Questions people ask before they buy.
What is the difference between the AI Visibility Report and the Head-to-Head?
The $299 AI Visibility Report tests your own site alone: crawler access, structured data, answer shape and a live citation test. The $149 Head-to-Head runs the same buyer questions once against your site and up to five named rivals, so you can see who an engine mentions instead of you.
Do I need both reports?
No. Buy the AI Visibility Report first if you do not know whether answer engines can find, read and cite your site at all. Add the Head-to-Head once you already know that and want to see how you compare to named rivals on the same questions.
Does the Head-to-Head crawl my rivals' websites?
No. It asks the answer engines directly what they say. No rival's site is ever touched.
How do I add rivals to the Head-to-Head?
After checkout, from your account: one to five rivals, a name or a domain for each, plus the category a buyer would search under.
What counts as being cited by an answer engine?
Cited means the engine attached a page to its answer as a source, not merely that it looked at it.
Which answer engine is tested?
One named engine with live web access. The delivered report names the engine and the run.
Is a citation result guaranteed or a ranking promise?
No. Results are a measured reading from one run of questions on one engine, not a guarantee of any ranking, citation or outcome. We do not warrant that an engine will mention you in the future.
What do I get, and when?
The AI Visibility Report lands in your account and inbox as a web report, a PDF and a markdown work list, target two business days. The Head-to-Head lands the same business day once your rivals are added.
Why not just use the free scan's AI grade?
The free scan infers AI-crawler access from your robots.txt as text and gives a grade. It does not test citation and does not ask any answer engine a real question. That live test is what the paid reports measure directly.
