See exactly why AI recommends your competitors, and what to do about it
A fixed-price audit of how your brand appears in ChatGPT, Google AI Overviews and Perplexity, benchmarked against three named competitors on the questions your buyers actually ask. Report, raw data and a 90 day plan for £800, delivered within three working days, no call required.
Ranking on Google no longer means being recommended
Search has split in two. Your buyers still type into Google, but increasingly they read an answer instead of a list, or they skip Google and ask ChatGPT directly. In that answer, one or two brands get named. Everyone else does not exist.
Being the top organic result no longer gets you named.

of brands never appeared at all when AI was asked a category question with no brand mentioned, though 96% were described accurately when asked about by name.

That gap is the whole problem. You are visible to people who already know you and invisible to people who do not.
The audit tells you exactly where you sit in that gap, who is occupying the space you want, and what specifically has to change.
Deliverable
What's in the audit
Six sections, one report, plus the raw data behind every claim in it.
Your visibility scorecard
How often you are mentioned and cited across ChatGPT, Google AI Overviews and Perplexity, broken down by the six intent types we track: category understanding, solution discovery, shortlisting, alternatives and competitor evaluation, pricing and fit, and trust and credibility.
Competitor head to head
Three named competitors, scored against you prompt by prompt. Where they win, where you win, where nobody wins. Includes the verbatim AI answer text on the ten prompts that matter most, dated, so you can see exactly what a buyer sees.
Why they win
The part almost nobody delivers. When AI names a competitor instead of you, it drew that recommendation from somewhere. We show you which domains those are, ranked by how much of the category's citations they hold, and which ones already mention you.
What AI gets wrong about you
Where AI's description of your business is out of date, incomplete or simply incorrect, checked against your own site as the source of truth.
Technical readiness
Whether AI systems can actually read your commercial pages. Bot access by category, JavaScript rendering, CDN and firewall level blocking, structured data, and the pages AI is currently pulling from.
Your 90 day plan
Every finding turned into a ranked action, scored by effort against likely impact, sequenced across three months. Written so you can hand it to a developer or a writer without translation.
Plus the complete dataset. Every prompt, every engine, the date it ran, the full answer text, every brand named and every source cited. A spreadsheet, not a summary.
Process
How it works
Four steps, and you approve the questions before anything runs. The delivery clock starts when you sign the prompt set off.
Brief5 minutes
You tell us your domain, three competitors, your priority services and the markets you care about. That's the whole form.
Prompt setWithin 24 hours
We build 30 to 40 buyer-intent prompts for your category and send them to you for approval. You add, cut or reword anything. Nothing runs until you have signed them off, so the report answers the questions you actually care about.
We run it1 to 2 days
The prompts run across ChatGPT, Google AI Overviews and Perplexity. We analyse the results, pull the source data, and write the report.
DeliveryWithin 3 working days of sign-off
Report and data sheet by email. Most land inside 48 hours. If you want it walked through, a 30 minute call is included on request.
Why this isn’t a tool report
You can buy an automated AI visibility scan for a few pounds. It will run a handful of generic prompts, produce a score, and tell you to add FAQ schema and an llms.txt file.
Two problems with that. The prompts are not your buyers’ questions. And the advice is largely wrong: Google’s own documentation, published in May 2026, states plainly that it ignores llms.txt, that content does not need chunking for AI, and that structured data is not required to appear in generative search. Ahrefs tested 1,885 pages that added structured data and found no measurable gain in AI citations.
What we do instead:
- Your prompts, approved by you, built around the six intent types buyers move through, not scraped keywords
- Continuous monitoring data, not one live query. Our measurement layer runs on a schedule, so results reflect how these systems behave across many runs rather than one lucky answer
- Source-level attribution, so every finding traces back to a domain and a page
- The raw data, so you can check our work
- A named person, who wrote your report and will answer questions about it
Two options
Both run on the same prompt set and the same three engines. The audit adds your own visibility, an accuracy check, technical readiness and a sequenced plan.

Comparison
You've run the free checker. What's different?
The checker is a technical scan of your site. The audit measures what AI systems actually say, and about whom.
| Feature | Free AI Checker | AI Visibility Audit |
|---|---|---|
| Cost | Free, instant | £800, 3 working days |
| What it looks at | Your website's technical setup | What AI actually says, and about whom |
| robots.txt and crawler access | Yes | Yes, plus CDN and firewall level |
| Structured data and metadata | Yes | Yes |
| Runs real buyer prompts | No | Yes, 30 to 40, approved by you |
| Tells you what AI says about you | No | Yes, verbatim |
| Names your competitors | No | Yes, three, scored prompt by prompt |
| Shows where AI learned it | No | Yes, source by source |
| Gives you a plan | Generic tips | Ranked and sequenced over 90 days |
| Human involved | No | Yes, written by a named analyst |
The checker tells you whether AI can read your site. The audit tells you what AI says when it does.
Fit
Who it's for
The audit earns its price where a single shortlist recommendation is worth more than the report costs.
- Founders and marketing leads who have noticed organic traffic softening and want to know whether AI is the reason
- B2B service businesses and SaaS brands where a shortlist recommendation is worth thousands
- Agencies who need a defensible AI visibility position for a client or a pitch
- In-house teams who need evidence before they can get budget signed off
Who it isn’t for
Brand new sites with no search presence yet
There is not enough for AI to have an opinion about. Fix the fundamentals first and come back.
Anyone wanting the work done for them
This tells you what to do. If you want it implemented, that's our managed programme.
Anyone expecting a guaranteed position in ChatGPT
Nobody can sell you that, and anyone offering it is guessing.
Client testimonial
What clients say
“The report was exactly what I needed. Clear on where we stood technically, and the competitor data showed me what we actually had to do to show up in AI search.”
Daniel Dale-Tucker
Founder at Areon
Why trust the measurement
- Tracked as the highest-visibility AI search agency in the UK, at 27.1% visibility share, as at July 2026
- Enterprise measurement layer, running continuously rather than one live query
- Covering ChatGPT, Google AI Overviews and Perplexity, with up to 10 engines on managed programmes
After the audit
The audit tells you what is wrong, what it is costing you and what to fix first. It does not fix it. Plenty of teams take the 90 day plan and run it themselves, which is a perfectly good outcome and the reason the raw data comes with it.
If you would rather it was implemented and monitored for you, that is our ongoing AEO and GEO implementation programme: the same measurement kept running, plus the content, factcheck and third-party source work that moves the numbers.
There is no obligation either way, and no discount for deciding now. Read the audit first.

Questions about the audit
- How much does an AI visibility audit cost?
- Tilio's AI Visibility Audit is £800 as a fixed price, with no VAT charged. A narrower Competitor Snapshot is £500. Both are one-off payments made online, with no minimum commitment and no call required before purchase.
- How long does the audit take?
- The report is delivered within three working days of you approving the prompt set, which we send within 24 hours of your brief. Most audits land inside 48 hours. Comparable audits from other UK agencies typically take five to ten working days.
- Which AI platforms do you check?
- ChatGPT, Google AI Overviews and Perplexity. These three cover the majority of buyer discovery and comparison behaviour in AI search. Managed programmes extend to ten engines.
- How do you decide which questions to test?
- We build 30 to 40 prompts across six intent types: category understanding, solution discovery, shortlisting, alternatives and competitor evaluation, pricing and fit, and trust and credibility. You review and approve the full set before anything runs, so the report answers questions you care about.
- How is this different from your free AI checker?
- The free checker examines your website's technical readiness: robots.txt, crawler access, structured data and metadata. The audit examines what AI systems actually say, which brands they recommend in your category, why, and what to change. The checker looks at your site. The audit looks at the answers.
- Do I need to be on a retainer?
- No. The audit is a standalone one-off purchase. If you later move onto a managed programme within 30 days, the audit fee is credited in full against your first three months.
- Can you guarantee we'll appear in ChatGPT?
- No, and neither can anyone else. AI systems do not offer paid or guaranteed placement in their organic answers, and their behaviour changes frequently. What the audit gives you is an accurate picture of where you stand today and a ranked plan of the changes most likely to improve it.
- What do I actually receive?
- A report as a PDF, typically 25 to 30 pages, plus a spreadsheet containing every prompt, every engine, the date it ran, the full answer text, every brand named and every source cited. A 30 minute walkthrough call is available on request at no extra cost.
- Who writes the report?
- A named analyst at Tilio, who will answer follow-up questions about it. The measurement data comes from our enterprise monitoring layer. The prompt sets, analysis and recommendations are ours.
- Is this only for UK businesses?
- No, though our prompt sets and competitor benchmarking are strongest for UK and Ireland markets. We can run other English-language markets. Tell us in the brief and we will confirm before you pay.
- What happens after I pay?
- You get an immediate confirmation email with your delivery date. Within 24 hours you receive the proposed prompt set to approve. Once approved, the report arrives within three working days.
- Can I get it faster?
- Usually. Tell us in the brief. If we can hit your date we will confirm it before running anything, at no extra cost.
