Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about RankPulse and AI visibility.

General

What is RankPulse?

RankPulse is an AI visibility and SEO platform that checks whether AI engines like ChatGPT, Gemini, and Perplexity recommend your brand. It also runs a complete SEO audit of your website and provides actionable fixes with copy-paste code.

What is AI visibility?

AI visibility refers to whether AI-powered platforms mention, recommend, or cite your brand when users ask relevant questions. As more users rely on AI for recommendations, being 'AI-visible' is becoming as important as traditional SEO.

How is this different from traditional SEO tools?

Traditional SEO tools focus on Google rankings. RankPulse goes beyond that — we check how AI engines (ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity) perceive your brand and provide specific optimization strategies for AI discoverability, including llms.txt, FAQ schema, and answer-first content.

Do I need technical knowledge to use RankPulse?

No. We provide exact copy-paste code snippets for every fix. You can hand these directly to your developer, or if you have basic HTML knowledge, implement them yourself in minutes.

How It Works

How does the AI visibility check work?

We send relevant industry queries to ChatGPT, Gemini, and Perplexity (e.g., 'What are the best [your industry] companies in India?') and analyze whether your brand appears in the responses, at what position, and with what sentiment.

What does the SEO audit check?

Our audit scans your website for: meta title & description (with character counts), H1/H2 heading structure, structured data (Schema.org markup), Open Graph tags, robots.txt configuration, XML sitemap, llms.txt file, FAQ schema, and page load speed.

What is llms.txt?

llms.txt is an emerging standard (similar to robots.txt) that helps AI crawlers understand your website. It provides a structured summary of your brand, services, and key information that AI engines can easily parse.

How accurate are the results?

Our SEO audit is based on real-time fetching and parsing of your actual website HTML. The AI visibility check queries real AI engines with industry-relevant prompts. Results reflect the current state of your online presence.

Pricing & Plans

Is it really free?

Yes! The free plan gives you 1 check per week with ChatGPT visibility and basic SEO report. No credit card required. Upgrade only when you need more frequent checks or additional AI engines.

Yes, annual billing is available with a 20% discount. Contact us for enterprise pricing if you need custom plans for larger teams.

Technical

Does RankPulse access my website admin?

No. We only fetch your publicly accessible pages (similar to how Google or AI crawlers visit your site). We never need login credentials or admin access.

Will this slow down my website?

No. Our scan makes a single HTTP request to fetch your page, similar to a normal browser visit. It has zero impact on your website's performance for other visitors.

What data do you store?

We store your scan results so you can track progress over time. We do not store your website content permanently. All data is encrypted and hosted on secure servers.

Do you support non-English websites?

Yes. Our SEO audit works with any language. The AI visibility check currently works best with English queries but we're adding support for Hindi and other Indian languages.
