Hey dev community! I wanted to share a tool I've been building called Foglift — a free website analyzer that checks both traditional SEO and something called GEO (Generative Engine Optimization).
What is GEO?
GEO is about making your website visible in AI-generated answers from ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google AI Overviews, and Claude. It's like SEO, but for AI search engines instead of Google.
What Foglift checks
Enter any URL and get scores across 5 categories in ~30 seconds:
- SEO — meta tags, headings, structured data, Open Graph
- GEO — AI crawler access, citation formatting, FAQ schema, entity markup
- Performance — Core Web Vitals, page load time
- Security — HSTS, CSP, X-Frame-Options headers
- Accessibility — WCAG compliance, color contrast, alt text
Why I built it
Most SEO tools (Ahrefs, Semrush) cost $99-139/mo and don't check AI search readiness at all. I wanted something that:
- Shows both SEO and GEO scores in one scan
- Is free to start (no signup required)
- Gives actionable fixes, not just scores
Developer features
-
CLI:
npx foglift scan mysite.com -
REST API:
GET https://foglift.io/api/v1/scan?url=... -
MCP Server: Works with Claude Code and Cursor —
npx foglift-mcp - 46+ free tools for SEO, security, accessibility, and developer utilities
Try it
Would love feedback from the dev community. What other checks would be useful? What's your experience with AI search visibility?
