Summary
GEO Tool is a free web-based checker from Berlin's track by track GmbH that scores any URL from 0 to 100 on technical and editorial readiness for AI answer engines. Paid audits, an early-access answer-monitoring workspace and done-for-you implementation sit alongside it.
- Best for
- buyers who want a free, fast, no-signup technical GEO-readiness read
- Not for
- teams that need ongoing, live per-engine citation monitoring with a dashboard or API. This tool audits technical readiness at a point in time, not whether AI engines are actually citing you today.
- From
- Freethen €299 (about $335)
- Free tier
- YesOne URL per run, scored by 25 checks in six categories; no signup, account, card or subscription. Ongoing prompt monitoring is excluded from the free tier, and the hosted MCP route is capped at 30 calls per hour per IP.
What it does
- Monitors AI answers
- PartlyAnswer monitoring is real but gated: the workspace measures mentions per prompt and engine, yet the vendor sells it only to selected teams in early access rather than as a bookable plan.
Measures whether your brand is mentioned in AI-generated answers: per customer question (prompt), per engine, with sources, competitor comparison and…
geo-tool.com/en - Optimises your content
- YesThe free check crawls a page you already have and returns a prioritised fix list across schema, llms.txt, structure and entity linking rather than a bare score.
No vague recommendations. You get a checklist: Schema Markup, llms.txt, content structure, entity linking, FAQ markup.
geo-tool.com/en/geo-tool - Generates content
- PartlyThe analyser drafts AI-optimised summaries and complete JSON-LD from your page, but it writes no articles; full content production is the separate agency engagement.
Scans the first 150 words for direct answers and generates AI-optimized summaries.
geo-tool.com/en - Publishes to your site
- PartlyNo CMS connector is offered anywhere on the site; changes reach a live site only when the Berlin team implements them as a done-for-you service.
We implement comprehensive Schema.org markup, optimize your page structure, and ensure AI crawlers can perfectly understand and categorize your…
geo-tool.com/en/services - Technical AEO
- YesTechnical AEO is the core of the product: crawler directives in robots.txt, llms.txt, canonical, noindex, render-without-JavaScript and JSON-LD all score inside the System readiness category.
Reachability, HTTPS, response time, noindex, AI crawlers in robots.txt, canonical, title, description, viewport, llms.txt
geo-tool.com/en/ext-report - Done-for-you service
- YesA Berlin team sells audits, implementation and ongoing reporting as done-for-you work, so the people rather than the software do the optimisation.
Professional Generative Engine Optimization for maximum visibility in ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude, and all relevant AI search systems.

Answer engines
- ChatGPT
- YesChatGPT is the one surface measured daily on the real ChatGPT search, and it is the only engine behind every measurement published in the vendor's own visibility index.
ChatGPT is measured daily; Google Gemini and Perplexity as regular deep measurements. Manually triggered measurements always run across all engines.
geo-tool.com/en/methodik - Perplexity
- PartlyPerplexity is named as a verified live surface but runs only as a periodic deep measurement, not daily, and no published aggregate yet contains a Perplexity measurement.
ChatGPT is measured daily; Google Gemini and Perplexity as regular deep measurements. Manually triggered measurements always run across all engines.
geo-tool.com/en/methodik - Gemini
- PartlyGoogle Gemini is a verified live surface on the same periodic deep-measurement cadence as Perplexity rather than the daily ChatGPT run, and the free website check never queries it.
ChatGPT is measured daily; Google Gemini and Perplexity as regular deep measurements. Manually triggered measurements always run across all engines.
geo-tool.com/en/methodik - Google AI Overviews
- PartlyAI Overviews is a target the website audit scores against Google's own guidance, but it is not one of the three surfaces the workspace queries live, so no mention data exists for it.
The analysis evaluates your website against official Google Search guidance for AI Overviews and AI Mode, then extends that SEO foundation with agent…
geo-tool.com/en - Google AI Mode
- PartlyAI Mode is covered the same way as AI Overviews: the audit checks the page against Google's published guidance for it, while no live AI Mode measurement runs in the workspace.
The analysis evaluates your website against official Google Search guidance for AI Overviews and AI Mode, then extends that SEO foundation with agent…
geo-tool.com/en - Claude
- PartlyClaude appears only as a readiness target: the audit tests signals Claude relies on and the free robots tools cover ClaudeBot, while the enumerated live-measurement surfaces do not include it.
The website check tests cross-platform signals that ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, Claude, Copilot and Google AI Overviews all rely on: crawl access,…
geo-tool.com/en - Microsoft Copilot
- PartlyCopilot is named only in the list of platforms whose shared signals the website check tests; it is absent from the enumerated set of surfaces where live measurements actually run.
The website check tests cross-platform signals that ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, Claude, Copilot and Google AI Overviews all rely on: crawl access,…
geo-tool.com/en - Grok
- NoGrok is named nowhere on the site: the measured surfaces are enumerated as three, and the free robots.txt builder's eleven-crawler list contains no xAI user agent either.
Every visibility measurement asks a real money question on a real AI search surface — ChatGPT search, Google Gemini and Perplexity. No simulation
geo-tool.com/en/methodik - DeepSeek
- NoDeepSeek is absent from the enumerated live surfaces and from the vendor's crawler inventory, so neither the monitoring workspace nor the readiness check addresses it.
Every visibility measurement asks a real money question on a real AI search surface — ChatGPT search, Google Gemini and Perplexity. No simulation
geo-tool.com/en/methodik - Meta AI
- NoMeta AI is never measured; it surfaces only as the meta-externalagent crawler token in the free robots.txt generator, which is crawl permission rather than an answer measurement.
Every visibility measurement asks a real money question on a real AI search surface — ChatGPT search, Google Gemini and Perplexity. No simulation
geo-tool.com/en/methodik - Coverage in the vendor’s words
- PartlyCoverage is split in two and the vendor says so: six platforms inform the website readiness check, while only ChatGPT, Gemini and Perplexity have verified live paths, and unverified engines stay hidden.
The workspace shows only monitoring surfaces whose real provider path exists, is active, and has been verified. Planned or unverified engines are not…

What it reports
- Names the cited sources
- PartlyCited sources per question and engine are collected, typed and compared against competitors, but only inside the early-access workspace; the free check judges whether your page is citable at all.
In the GEO Tool workspace it is part of monitoring: for each question and engine, the cited sources are collected, classified by type (own site,…
geo-tool.com/en - Competitor tracking
- PartlyCompetitors named in an answer are stored with every measurement and the paid audit adds a citation benchmark, yet the free check offers only industry-level context, not a rival watchlist.
For every measurement we store the answer excerpt, the cited sources, your rank and the competitors mentioned.
geo-tool.com/en/methodik - Brand sentiment
- PartlySentiment is reported as positive, neutral or factually wrong per mention rather than as an attribute map, and it arrives through monitoring or the agency's monthly reports.
Sentiment adds whether the mention is positive, neutral or factually wrong.
geo-tool.com/en - Recommendations
- YesEvery report ends in a prioritised checklist of concrete edits instead of a score alone, covering schema, llms.txt, content structure, entity linking and FAQ markup.
No vague recommendations. You get a checklist: Schema Markup, llms.txt, content structure, entity linking, FAQ markup.
geo-tool.com/en/geo-tool - AI crawler analytics
- PartlyYou learn which AI crawlers your robots.txt permits, not which ones actually hit your server; real log-file analysis appears only in the paid GEO Audit deliverable.
Paste your robots.txt. The check tells you for every relevant AI crawler whether it may read the page.
geo-tool.com/en/tools/ki-crawler-check - Wrong answers about you
- PartlyA mention can be flagged as factually wrong as part of sentiment, but there is no dedicated hallucination report and the flag exists only where monitoring runs.
Sentiment adds whether the mention is positive, neutral or factually wrong.

Plans and signing up
- Prompt or credit allowance
- PartlyNo plan-level prompt or credit allowance is published anywhere; the only stated query ceiling is 30 calls per hour on the hosted MCP endpoint for agents.
Hosted MCP server (Streamable HTTP, no auth, 30 calls/hour):
geo-tool.com/en/developers - Projects or brands
- PartlyThe Terms meter projects and domains per plan, so several brands are possible, but no plan and no limit is published.
Plans may include usage limits, such as users, projects, domains, prompts, queries, reports, API calls, storage, sessions, refresh frequency or…
geo-tool.com/en/agb - Countries
- PartlyThe website audit is stated to handle DACH and international multilingual sites, but no market or country selector is documented for the monitoring measurements themselves.
Optimized for German-speaking markets (DE, AT, CH) and international websites. Multilingual analysis available.
geo-tool.com/en/geo-tool - How often it checks
- YesCadence is engine-dependent and stated plainly: ChatGPT runs daily, Gemini and Perplexity as periodic deep measurements, and a manual run triggers every engine at once.
ChatGPT is measured daily; Google Gemini and Perplexity as regular deep measurements. Manually triggered measurements always run across all engines.
geo-tool.com/en/methodik - Card required to start
- NoThe free GEO Score check asks for no card, no subscription and no account at all; payment details only enter the picture for a quoted audit or engagement.
No signup. No subscription. No credit card.
geo-tool.com/en/geo-tool - Self-serve signup
- PartlyThe free check is fully self-serve in under a minute, but every paid path runs through people: audits need a scoping call and monitoring needs an early-access invitation.
Directly via geo-tool.com: start with the free GEO check, then request the audit through the contact form.

Access and integrations
- API
- PartlyThe public API is open and unauthenticated but only exposes blog posts and the aggregate visibility index; the page analysis itself is deliberately kept out of it.
The website analysis is deliberately undocumented and not intended for programmatic access.
geo-tool.com/en/developers - MCP server
- YesAn agent can run the check directly through a hosted no-auth MCP server, a local npm MCP server, a Claude Code plugin or the browser extension.
The GEO technical check is available to agents in every form — as a hosted MCP server, a local npm package, a Claude Code plugin, and a browser…
geo-tool.com/en/developers - BI export
- NoThe documented programmatic surface is two public read-only endpoints; no warehouse connector, BI integration or customer-data export is published anywhere.
Two read-only endpoints, no authentication, no key, no signup.
