About

Honest diagnostics. No invented scores.

AnswerScope is a growing set of free SEO and AEO tools built by Purcell Analytics. Each one reads your page the way a search engine or an AI assistant does, then shows you the real signal and the exact fix — with no sign-up and nothing held back for a paid tier.

Why we built these

Most free SEO tools do one of two things: hand you a mystery “score” with no way to see what it measured, or show you the problem and paywall the fix. Worse, plenty of the tools ranking for these searches are simply broken — they return blanks, or grade a cached copy of your page. We build tools that actually run, on the live response, and explain what they found so you can act on it.

How the tools work

  • We fetch your live page — the real HTTP response, not a stored crawl — and parse exactly what a bot would see.
  • We report real values — the actual title, description, canonical, schema types, and crawler rules, attached to each verdict so you can verify it.
  • Every result is visible — pass, warn, or fail, with the ideal target and the change to make. The useful part is never behind a wall.
  • AI crawlers are first-class — we check whether GPTBot, ClaudeBot, PerplexityBot and Google-Extended can reach you, because AI answers are becoming as important as blue links.

Accuracy and limits

We report what the page returns at the moment you run the check. A tool can only see what is publicly served — pages behind a login, geo-blocks, or aggressive bot protection may read differently to us than to Google. When a signal is missing rather than wrong, we say so plainly instead of guessing.

Why they are free

These tools are supported by advertising and by our paid product, the AI Visibility Checker, which measures whether AI answer engines actually name and cite your brand. Keeping the diagnostics free is the point: they earn trust by being useful, which is what a genuinely helpful tool should do.

Who builds this

AnswerScope is made and maintained by Purcell Analytics, which builds search, analytics, and AI-visibility software. If a tool returns something that looks wrong, that is a bug we want to fix — the whole premise here is tools that actually work.

The next question

Your page is AI-ready. But does AI actually cite you?

Being crawlable is step one. The AI Visibility Checker shows whether ChatGPT, Google AI Overviews, Perplexity and Gemini name and cite your brand — and who they name instead.
