They tell you the number.
We give you the fix.

If you've started caring whether ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity and Gemini mention your app, you've met two kinds of product: measurement tools that track your AI visibility over time, and fix toolsthat change what AI can actually read. They're not competitors — they sit at different points in the same loop. Here's the honest version of that split.

What is the difference between AEO measurement and AEO fixing?

Answer Engine Optimization (AEO, sometimes GEO) splits into two jobs. Measurementanswers “how visible am I right now, and is it changing?” — you give it your brand and competitors; it runs prompts on a schedule and reports share-of-voice and trends. Fixinganswers “what's making me invisible, and what exactly do I change?” — it reads your app the way an answer engine does and produces the artifact (llms.txt, JSON-LD, meta tags, FAQ schema) that closes the gap. getAdvantage is the fix side — the picks-and-shovels — built for solo founders who need something to paste, not another chart.

What do measurement tools like Peec and Profound do?

Measurement platforms track AI visibility as an ongoing metric: they run a set of prompts against multiple AI assistants on a recurring schedule, report how often your brand is mentioned and against which competitors, track sentiment and share-of-voice over time, and surface trends. It's monitoring — the value is in the longitudinal number and the competitive benchmark. It's the right tool if your job is to report on AI visibility across a brand or portfolio.

What does getAdvantage do that measurement tools don't?

getAdvantage scans the underlying signals and produces the fix. On one free, no-signup scan it measures the 9 AI-readability signals an answer engine reads (title, meta description, JSON-LD, heading structure, /llms.txt, content-to-markup ratio, Open Graph, canonical, AI-crawler access in robots.txt), shows which competitors a ChatGPT-class model names instead of you, and generates each fix as a prompt you paste back into Lovable, Bolt, v0, Base44 or Replit. File-based fixes (llms.txt, robots.txt) come back as exact contents plus the path. It also runs Convert (landing-page first-impression) and Ship Verified (safety) from the same scan.

Which one do I actually need: a measurement tool or getAdvantage?

If your job is to report on AI visibility across a brand or many clients and you want a metric that trends over weeks, a measurement tool is the right purchase. If you shipped an app and found out ChatGPT recommends a competitor that has never heard of you, you don't need another dashboard telling you you're invisible — you need the fix, which is getAdvantage. Measurement shows you the number; getAdvantage moves it. Many builders use both: see the gap, apply the fixes, then re-scan or re-measure to confirm it shipped.

Is getAdvantage's score a guarantee that AI will recommend me?

No. Every score getAdvantage produces is a measurement of observable signals at the time of the scan, not a guarantee of any AI assistant's output. No one controls what ChatGPT says. What you can control is whether your app is legible enough for an answer engine to read, quote and cite you — and that's exactly what the 9 signals measure and the fixes address. Sample output is always labelled, and the embed's limits are stated plainly.

Does getAdvantage run its own engine on itself?

Yes — we run our own Get Found engine on getadvantage.app and publish the real score on the homepage (currently 92/100, grade A). A “get found by AI” tool that itself wasn't found by AI would be a fraud. Don't take our word for it: scan us, then ask ChatGPT what gets your app found.
