AI Citation Readiness Checker

Free, no signup. See whether a page gives an answer engine something clear to retrieve and cite. Citability is scored separately from retrieval evidence, and page content stays in your browser.

Before

A detailed page that is unindexed or answers only after a long introduction.

After

A retrievable page with a direct first answer, named evidence, and self-contained chunks.

Pasted content is analyzed in your browser. A URL is sent only to the protected fetch endpoint; paste content takes priority. After a successful URL check, only its domain is remembered locally.

Visible scoring buckets
BucketWeight
Retrievability: rank / authority / indexation / freshness / technical / AI access 30 / 20 / 15 / 15 / 10 / 10
Citability: relevance / coverage / quotability / information gain / authority 30 / 20 / 20 / 15 / 15

General preserves the base checks. Named profiles add their dated required signals; unavailable pack fields remain not evaluated.

Runs entirely in your browser — nothing you paste is uploaded or stored. Page content and scoring stay in your browser. Anonymous run-level outcome counters may be used for aggregate research; URLs, domains, IPs, and identifiers are never included, and no statistic is released below 100 runs.

Sample report Built-in deterministic example

The Try an example button uses a dated, attributed paragraph answering “What does a canonical tag do?” and deliberately leaves all external evidence blank. Its honest output shape is:

Citability: a numeric local score

Retrievability: not evaluated — add rank, authority, and indexation

Citation likelihood: not computed

✓ Direct answer near the start
✓ Visible update date
✓ Author or reviewer signal

The example does not freeze a fabricated citation probability. The live deterministic engine calculates the citability number from the supplied paragraph while the retrieval gate remains closed.

How to use it

  1. Paste one page’s visible text or HTML and enter the exact question it should answer.
  2. Optionally enter rank, authority, and indexation evidence on a 0–100 scale. Leave unknown values blank.
  3. Select Grade page, or use the built-in example to see the output shape.
  4. Improve the weakest content checks, then re-run. Do not fill retrieval fields with guesses merely to obtain a citation-likelihood number.

What the results mean

  • Citability — a weighted combination of lexical chunk relevance, answer coverage, quotability density, assumed information gain, and supplied authority.
  • Retrievability — a weighted score only when rank, authority, and indexation evidence are all present.
  • Citation likelihood — retrievability multiplied by citability; not computed when the retrieval gate is incomplete.
  • Pass / warning checks — visible content patterns for an early direct answer, update date, author or reviewer signal, plus selected profile signals.
  • Consumer-product context — dated qualitative priors shown as context only; every product remains not evaluated because this checker did not query it.

How it works

The local engine extracts readable blocks, creates roughly 300-token chunks, ranks them against the target question with lexical retrieval, and scores answer-shaped sentences and quotability. The scoring module combines those values with the visible weights shown above. Unknown rank, authority, or indexation remains the literal state not evaluated; the multiplication step will not run until all retrieval evidence exists.

Features

  • Text or HTML input processed in the browser.
  • Separate citability and retrievability stages.
  • Visible weights and a strict missing-evidence gate.
  • Three actionable page checks plus a question-specific chunk match.
  • Built-in example that demonstrates a deliberately uncomputed outcome.

Limitations

Lexical overlap misses synonyms and semantic matches. The content checks recognize simple wording patterns rather than meaning, and technical/access values currently use fixed assumptions. Rank, authority, and indexation are user inputs and are not verified. Dated consumer-product profiles are contextual industry priors, not provider disclosures or observations from this run. The report cannot predict a citation for any query or product.

AI answers may continue to reflect cached or previously retrieved material for days to weeks after a fix. Recheck over time before treating an unchanged answer as proof that the fix failed.

Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between citability and retrievability?

Citability describes whether the pasted page contains a relevant, answer-shaped passage. Retrievability uses external evidence such as rank, authority, and indexation. A page can write a strong answer that an engine never retrieves.

Why is citation likelihood not computed?

Citation likelihood is gated. If rank, authority, or indexation is blank, the tool reports those inputs as not evaluated and refuses to turn missing evidence into a numeric prediction.

Is this an AI visibility score?

No. It is a transparent page-content heuristic plus optional user-supplied retrieval evidence. It does not observe an answer engine, prompt set, citation corpus, or live model behavior.

Why are consumer AI products listed as not evaluated?

The checker analyzes only the supplied page. The dated product profiles provide context, but no product-specific prompt or citation observation occurred, so the tool does not manufacture per-product scores.

What should I do with a warning?

Read the specific check, then improve the page only when the recommendation fits the query and remains accurate. A direct answer, meaningful date, and qualified author signal are useful when they are genuine, not when added mechanically.

Araç hakkında

Alıntılanabilirliği retrieval kanıtından ayırın. Açıkça adlandırılmış ağırlıkları ve her model için tazelik ayarlı görünümüyle bir sayfanın AI cevaplarında kaynak olarak kullanılmaya ne kadar hazır olduğunu inceleyin.

Bu bir model hükmü değil, kanıt ve içerik sinyallerinin açıklanabilir karşılaştırmasıdır; herhangi bir AI motorunun sizi alıntılayacağını garanti etmez.

Özellikler

  • Alıntılanabilirlik, retrieval kanıtı ve kaynak tazeliğini ayrı puan kartlarına ayırma.
  • Ağırlıkları ve her model görünümünü açıkça adlandırarak gizli tek skorun önüne geçme.
  • Cümle özgüllüğü, kaynak erişimi, güncellik ve konu kapsamını birlikte inceleme.
  • Eksik sinyaller için düzeltme rehberi, yeniden kontrol akışı ve paylaşılabilir rapor.

Nasıl çalışır

Sayfa URL'sini veya metni girin, ardından alıntılanabilirlik ile retrieval kanıtı kartlarını ayrı okuyun. Adlandırılmış ağırlıkları ve model tazeliği görünümünü inceleyin; eksik kaynak, eski istatistik veya belirsiz cümleleri düzeltin. Değişiklikten sonra raporu yeniden çalıştırıp kanıtları ekip karar kaydınıza ekleyin.

Sınırlamalar

  • Puanlar gözlemlenen sayfa ve retrieval sinyallerinden türetilir; gerçek bir modelin cevap seçimini veya alıntı davranışını öngörmez.
  • Model politikaları, sorgu bağlamı ve rakip kaynaklar değişebilir. Tazelik ayarı güncel kanıtı gösterir, kalıcı görünürlük garantisi vermez.

Sık sorulan sorular

Alıntılanabilirlik retrieval kanıtından neden ayrı?

Açık bir cümle alıntılanabilir olsa da bir model onu bulamayabilir. Araç cümle kalitesi ile kaynak erişimi ve tazeliği ayrı göstererek bu iki riski karıştırmaz.

Model görünümü neyi değiştirir?

Her modelin retrieval ve tazelik sinyalleri farklı olabilir. Görünüm, aynı kanıtın model bazında nerede eksik kaldığını karşılaştırır; modelin gerçek iç kararını göstermez.

Ağırlıkları düzenleyebilir miyim?

Rapor adlandırılmış ağırlıkları görünür kılar ve kapsamı anlamanıza yardım eder. Değişen ağırlıklar yalnızca senaryo karşılaştırmasıdır; harici model puanı değildir.

Yüksek puan AI alıntısını garanti eder mi?

Hayır. Sorgu, model politikası, rakip kaynaklar ve retrieval anı sonucu değiştirir. Puanı iyileştirme önceliği olarak, gerçek cevapları ise ayrı kanıt olarak kullanın.

Düzeltmeden sonra ne yapmalıyım?

Kaynakları, cümleleri ve güncellik tarihlerini düzeltin; sonra aynı sayfayı yeniden değerlendirip önceki ve yeni kanıt kartlarını karşılaştırın.
