FlinnSchema has just had its biggest update yet — and it's now the most comprehensive AI visibility platform available for businesses that want to be found, recommended, and cited by AI search engines like ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, and Grok.
Whether you're running your first free audit or you're a Premium subscriber tracking your visibility month-on-month, there's a lot that's new. Here's a full breakdown of what's available, what's changed, and why it matters.
What Every User Gets for Free
Every business can run a full AI visibility audit at no cost. No credit card, no trial period — just real data about how visible your business is to AI search engines right now.
Here's what the free audit includes:
- 26-factor AI visibility score — Your website is scored across 26 factors that determine whether AI engines can find, understand, and recommend your business. These cover structured data, trust signals, AI readiness, content quality, technical SEO, and discoverability.
- Schema markup detection — We check whether your site has JSON-LD structured data, how complete it is, what types are present (Organisation, Product, FAQ, Reviews, etc.), and whether it follows best practices.
- AI crawler access check — We parse your robots.txt to see whether GPTBot, ClaudeBot, PerplexityBot, GoogleOther, and Bytespider are allowed to crawl your site. If they're blocked, AI engines literally cannot see you.
- Trust signal analysis — We pull live review data from Trustpilot, Google, Feefo, and Reviews.io to check whether your business has the third-party trust signals that AI engines rely on when making recommendations.
- 5 free audit refreshes — Re-run your audit as you make changes to see your score improve in real time.
- Instant results — Head to flinnschema.com/go and you can have your full audit within 60 seconds.
The free audit gives you a clear picture of where you stand. It tells you your overall score, which factors are passing, which are warning, and which are failing. For most businesses, that's enough to know whether AI visibility is something they should be paying attention to — and the answer is almost always yes.
What Premium Unlocks
The free audit shows you the scores. Premium shows you everything — the detailed findings, the specific recommendations, the tools to test and track your visibility, and the roadmap to actually improve it.
At £100/month (down from £150 — launch discount applied automatically), Premium includes:
Full 26-Factor Detailed Breakdown
Every factor opens up with specific findings about your website. Not generic advice — actual data points. What schema types you're missing, which pages lack structured data, what your competitors have that you don't. Each factor includes a tailored recommendation telling you exactly what to do.
4 LLM Prompt Tests Per Month
This is one of the most powerful features on the platform. We send 20 real prompts to four AI engines — ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, and Grok — all with live web search enabled. These aren't API-only calls hitting stale training data. Each engine actively searches the web in real time, just like a real user would experience.
For every prompt, you see whether each engine mentions your business directly, indirectly, or not at all. Every result is then classified by an AI verification system as genuine, confused, echoed, or not found — so you know exactly how reliable each mention is.
You get 4 tests per month, with the option to purchase additional tests if needed. Each test gives you a visibility score per engine, so you can see where you're strong and where you're invisible.
4 Industry Blog Posts Per Month
We write and publish blog posts on your behalf, tailored to your industry and optimised for AI comprehension. These posts build topical authority, create crawlable content for AI engines, and give you a growing library of indexed pages that reference your business. It's one of the most effective ways to build AI visibility over time.
Competitor Comparison
Audit up to 3 competitors and see how you compare side by side. We run the same 26-factor engine on their sites, then rank everyone together. You'll see exactly where you're ahead and where they're beating you — factor by factor, score by score.
Crawled Pages Analysis
We crawl every page on your site and score each one for AI readability. You'll see which pages have schema markup, which have proper heading structure, and which are letting the side down. This is especially useful for larger sites where issues hide on deep pages.
Implementation Roadmap
Your roadmap is a prioritised action plan generated from your audit results. Every task is ranked by impact — the formula weighs potential score gain against effort required, so you always know what to fix first for maximum results. Items are tagged as quick wins, easy fixes, or strategic improvements, each with step-by-step implementation instructions.
Progress Tracking & Charts
The Progress & Charts dashboard tracks everything over time. You'll see:
- Your AI visibility score plotted over every audit, showing the trend
- LLM citation tracking across all four engines
- A factor health overview showing how many factors are passing, warning, or failing
- Competitor positioning so you can see where you sit relative to your competition
Time range filters let you zoom into the last 7 days, 30 days, or view all time.
LLM Test History
Every LLM test you run is stored. You can go back and review past results, see how your visibility has changed across engines, and track whether the work you're doing is translating into real AI mentions. Over time, this becomes the most valuable dataset you have.
Unlimited Audit Refreshes
Free users get 5 refreshes. Premium users get unlimited. Make a change, refresh your audit, see the impact immediately. There's no waiting, no cooldowns — just real-time feedback on your implementation work.
Cancel Anytime
No lock-in contracts. No annual commitments. If you cancel, you keep full access until the end of your billing period. No questions asked.
What's New — Recent Platform Updates
We've shipped a significant number of updates recently. Here are the highlights:
Live Web Search on All 4 AI Engines
Every LLM test now uses live web search on all four engines. ChatGPT uses the Responses API with web search preview. Perplexity uses search recency filtering. Gemini uses Google Search grounding. Grok uses forced web search mode. This means you're seeing exactly what a real user would see if they asked these engines about your business today — not results based on months-old training data.
AI-Verified Classification
Every single LLM prompt result now goes through an AI verification classifier. After the initial string-matching detection, each response is classified as genuine (the engine genuinely knows your business), confused (it's mixing you up with something else), echoed (it's just repeating the prompt back), or not found. Each result shows a verification badge so you know exactly how reliable the mention is.
Per-Prompt Retry Buttons
If any individual prompt fails during an LLM test — whether due to a timeout, rate limit, or engine issue — you can retry just that specific prompt without re-running the entire test. No wasted quota, no waiting for 80 queries to re-run when only one failed.
Progress & Charts Dashboard
The new Progress & Charts page is a full dashboard with four interactive visualisations:
- Score Over Time — Smooth line chart with hover tooltips showing your score at each audit
- LLM Citations Over Time — Bar chart showing your citation rate across tests, colour-coded by performance, with an average line
- Factor Health — Stacked bar showing your pass/warning/fail breakdown at a glance, with your top failing factors listed below
- Competitor Comparison — Horizontal bar chart ranking you against your competitors with position badges
Email Notifications
When your LLM test results are ready, you'll receive an email with a summary of your visibility scores and a direct link to your full results. No need to sit and watch the progress bar — run the test, close the tab, and we'll let you know when it's done.
Streaming LLM Progress
LLM tests now stream real-time progress as they run. You'll see a live progress bar showing which engine is being queried, the completion percentage, and status updates for each phase. No more staring at a spinner wondering if anything is happening.
Who Is FlinnSchema For?
FlinnSchema is built for businesses that want to be visible to the next generation of search. If your customers are asking ChatGPT for recommendations, if your competitors are showing up in Perplexity but you're not, if you've invested in SEO but haven't thought about AI — this is for you.
The free audit takes 60 seconds. Premium gives you the full picture and the tools to actually improve. Either way, you'll know exactly where you stand.
