Is your trade website invisible to AI?
ChatGPT and Google AI Overviews don’t “look” at your site like a customer on a phone — they fetch raw HTML. This free check scores whether a messy-trade website can be read and cited — then Mudfish can fix the gaps so humans still call you.
Checker
30-second technical score
Built for roofers, plumbers, electricians and other messy trades — not agency slide decks.
Paste your trade website. We score whether ChatGPT, Perplexity and Google AI Overviews can actually read it — not a marketing slideshow.
What we check
Signals that matter for trades
- AI crawlers allowed
If robots.txt blocks GPTBot or Google-Extended, AI never sees your plumbing or roofing pages. - Readable HTML (not JS-only)
Your trade, towns and services must exist in the raw HTML — not only after a fancy animation loads. - FAQs & business schema
Clear Q&A and LocalBusiness markup help AI Overviews extract answers homeowners actually ask. - Tap-to-call ready
When AI or Google sends a visitor, the number should be one tap away — trades win on speed.
FAQ
AI checker FAQ
Straight answers for trades wondering if AI search is real or hype.
Is this AI checker free for tradesmen?
Yes. Paste your URL — no signup. It scores technical readiness for AI crawlers, not whether you’ll rank tomorrow.
Why should a plumber or roofer care about AI search?
Homeowners increasingly ask ChatGPT and Google AI Overviews for a reliable trade nearby. If your site is JS-empty or blocks bots, you won’t be in the answer — even if you’re good on the tools.
Does a high score mean I’ll get more jobs?
No guarantee. A high score means AI can read you. Jobs still need Map Pack, reviews, a tap-to-call site and (often) ads. Mudfish ties AI readiness to that full works.
How is this different from Google Search Console?
Google often renders JavaScript. Many AI crawlers fetch raw HTML. This check looks at what those bots actually see — plus robots.txt, llms.txt, FAQ signals and tap-to-call.
My site is WordPress / Wix — will it score badly?
Not always. Thin themes and builder pages that hide copy behind scripts score worse. Clear service text in the HTML scores better — same as we build for messy trades.
