Hi Product Hunt 👋 I built AlpineRank after running my site through three GEO tools and getting three confident scores that agreed on nothing. One of them gave a green tick to a check it had failed to perform — the site's robots.txt returned a 403, and the tool scored it as a pass. That's the problem I wanted to fix. Not "measure AI visibility better" — measure it in a way you can audit. So AlpineRank is built on a few rules that mostly make our numbers look worse: → "Unable to verify" is a result. If robots.txt times out, we say so, tell you why, and drop that signal from the average instead of scoring it as a pass. → llms.txt is worth zero points. It sits in a separate section with a note saying no major AI provider has confirmed it affects citation ranking. It's cheap to add and might matter later. That isn't the same as a ranking factor. → Benchmarks state their sample size. "Category median: 54/100 (18 sites)" — and a note that those are sites audited with our tool, not a survey of the industry. → The 25 questions are generated from your topic, never from your page. A test written from your own content is one you always pass. → A citation check is 5 questions asked once. That's a snapshot, not a rate. 0 out of 5 doesn't mean "never", and we say so on the page. The last rule came from getting burned. An early version generated a fix that cited a price the page never mentioned — it just made one up, confidently. Now every date, price and percentage in a generated fix is checked against your page, and anything unsupported becomes [INSERT PRICE] with a note. I'd rather hand you a blank than a number I invented. Free tier: 3 audits/month, full score, all 25 questions, live Perplexity citation check. No account for the first one, no card ever. It works in your page's language too — questions and fixes generated in the language the page is written in, phrased the way a native speaker asks, not translated from English. That mattered to me because I'm in Slovenia and every tool in this category assumes English. I'd genuinely like to be told where the methodology is wrong. Run it on something you know well and tell me where the score disagrees with your judgement — that's the feedback I can't get from my own test pages.
