Brand AI mention baseline
Measured5-10 core buyer questions run across ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, Claude and Google AI Overviews, with screenshots of each answer — your starting position, on the record.
5 buyer questions were swept across every engine on our roster on 2026-08-21. 3 came back with fdmini.com cited by at least one engine — a 60% citation rate. The split by engine is below.
| Tracked query | Cited | Swept | No verdict |
|---|
| Google (Gemini grounding) | 2 | 5 | 0 |
| ChatGPT (web search) | 1 | 5 | 0 |
| Perplexity | 1 | 5 | 0 |
| Claude (web search) | 2 | 5 | 0 |
| Google AI Overview | 1 | 5 | 2 |
| Google AI Mode | 1 | 5 | 0 |
"No verdict" means the engine answered but the answer carried nothing scoreable either way. It is reported separately and never folded into "not cited" — those are two different facts and only one of them is bad news.

Competitor citation analysis
Written by the analystWho the engines cite instead of you on those same questions, and how often each competitor shows up.
Who the engines cite instead of you, on those same questions, and how often each competitor comes back. It needs a category and a competitor set agreed with you before the first query is sent, so the analyst writes it. Deliberately blank here.

AI answer source map
Written by the analystThe domains and page types the answers actually pull from in your category — the shortlist of places worth being. For each tracked query it also names the third-party pages every engine on our sweep roster actually cited, grouped by host with citation counts. We do not broker paid placements.

Technical accessibility check
MeasuredWhether GPTBot, PerplexityBot and Claude-Web can actually reach your content — robots rules, server-side rendering and page speed.
The homepage answered HTTP 200: 906 ms to first byte, 987 ms in total. robots.txt answered 200 and carries a sitemap directive. None of the four crawler tokens we check is disallowed. The server returns finished HTML — 5,976 visible characters before any JavaScript runs, with no client-side-rendering signals at all.

Content AI-readiness score
Measured, then judgedHow extractable your key pages are: answer-shaped openings, self-contained sections, and the passages an engine could quote.
Measured: 5,739 visible characters across 964 words, one H1, 8 H2s and 25 H3s, with no skipped heading levels. Under our rule-based scoring this homepage takes 97 out of 100 for technical SEO and 58 out of 100 for answer-engine readiness.
Not measured: whether those passages are quotable. Whether a section answers its question in the opening sentence, and whether it still makes sense once an engine lifts it out of the page. That is a read of the writing, not a parse of the markup, and the analyst does it.

07
Schema audit
MeasuredWhich structured data you have, which is malformed, and which types are worth adding for your page templates.
Present on the homepage: Organization, WebSite. Absent: FAQPage, BreadcrumbList. Nothing malformed. FAQPage is the one worth adding first on a site like this — it is the markup that lets an engine lift a question and its answer together, intact and attributable.

Brand entity consistency
Written by the analystHow consistently your brand is described across your own site and the third-party sources engines read — the naming and description drift that confuses retrieval.
How consistently the brand is described across your own site and the third-party sources engines read — the naming and description drift that confuses retrieval. It means holding your wording against other people's, which needs a person. Deliberately blank here.

Vertical new-question radar
Measured, then judgedThe emerging questions being asked in your vertical that nobody has answered well yet — the openings worth writing into.
Measured: fdmini.com ranks on Google's first page for 54 queries over the last 28 days. 3 of those are being watched for AI citations. 49 have never been swept by any engine, so their citation status is unknown — not negative, unknown. 2 are confirmed gaps: page-one rankings that no engine cites.
Confirmed gaps
| Query | Google position | Impressions |
|---|
| 1/6 scale in cm | 9 | 61 |
| paintable bookshelf | 7.9 | 10 |
Not measured: which questions are emerging in this vertical that nobody has answered well yet. That comes from reading the category, not from querying it.
