AEO — Answer Engine Optimization

Audit, optimize and track your content so ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude and Gemini cite it as the authoritative source.

Marketing & SEOIntermediate★ 28,022⑂ 3,926AI score 8/10Last updated: Aug 30, 2026

What it does

  • AEO audit: scores a page or markdown file on Experience, Expertise, Authoritativeness and Trustworthiness, returning a 0–100 composite plus a markdown report with prioritized fixes.
  • Content optimization: rewrites heading hierarchy for LLM parsing, boosts citation density, injects FAQ/HowTo/Article JSON-LD, and pulls verifiable claims into the first 200 words — in conservative, balanced or aggressive mode.
  • Citation tracking: keeps a local ledger (~/.aeo-data/citations.json) of which LLM cited which URL for which query, with per-page counts, velocity and CSV export.
  • Pre-flight check: verifies robots.txt against the AI crawler matrix (GPTBot, PerplexityBot, ClaudeBot, Google-Extended) — a blocked bot zeroes that platform.
  • Industry-aware thresholds for saas, healthcare, finance, legal, ecommerce, b2b, media and education.

Who it's for

  • Content marketers watching traffic shift from search results to AI answers
  • In-house SEO teams adding an AI-citation lens to existing audits
  • Regulated verticals (health, finance, legal) that need strict trust-signal checklists
  • Web owners rolling out schema markup and extractable answer blocks

Examples

  1. "Run an AEO audit on this blog post" → composite 72/100 with top fixes: add author credentials, link a corrections policy, add FAQ schema.
  2. "Audit this with healthcare rigor" → --industry healthcare flags every health claim lacking a primary citation as critical.
  3. "Perplexity just cited this page" → log the LLM, query and date in the ledger, then report citation velocity for the quarter.

What I want: (describe your task here)

If Claude can't open the link, open it yourself and paste the contents instead.

Install in the Claude app (no terminal)
  1. Download the ZIP with the button below.
  2. In Claude, open Settings → Capabilities and turn on 'Code execution and file creation'. (one time)
  3. Go to Customize → Skills → + → 'Upload a skill' and upload the ZIP.
↓ Download ZIP
Install in Claude Code

Let Claude do it — paste this into Claude Code

Install the skill I found on AI Skill Mart.
Copy the .gemini/skills/aeo folder from the GitHub repo alirezarezvani/claude-skills into my ~/.claude/skills/aeo/.
When it's done, tell me in one line what this skill can do.

Install with a command instead

git clone https://github.com/alirezarezvani/claude-skills.git /tmp/claude-skills && mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills && cp -r /tmp/claude-skills/.gemini/skills/aeo ~/.claude/skills/aeo

⚠ This is a third-party skill. Check the source repository before installing.

  1. Open a terminal (Terminal on macOS/Linux, WSL or Git Bash on Windows).
  2. Clone the repo: git clone https://github.com/alirezarezvani/claude-skills.git
  3. Create the skills folder: mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills
  4. Copy the skill in: cp -r claude-skills/.gemini/skills/aeo ~/.claude/skills/aeo
  5. Run ls ~/.claude/skills/aeo and confirm SKILL.md, scripts/ and references/ came along; if scripts are missing, look for the same skill folder elsewhere in the repo.
  6. Check python3 --version. For --url audits also run pip install requests beautifulsoup4 (file-based audits need no dependencies).
  7. Restart Claude Code and say "run an AEO audit" or "optimize this for Perplexity citations" to trigger the skill.
