What is a generative engine optimization checker?

Definition
A generative engine optimization (GEO) checker tests your content against the pages AI engines already cite for a prompt, shows what's missing, and tells you how to fix or create the page so it gets cited. A GEO platform adds the rest of the loop: tracking, briefs, drafts and proof.

Every recommendation comes from the AI answers themselves: the prompts buyers ask, the pages engines cite, and what those pages cover that yours doesn't. Read what generative engine optimization is.

One page per prompt

Wellows picks the page, then the play

Before suggesting an edit, Wellows scans your whole domain and scores every relevant page by intent and depth. Each prompt gets one page and one of three plays, and new work is checked against what you already publish, so two of your pages aren't left chasing the same citation.

When a page can win

Optimize

Your strongest page for the prompt gets a line-level plan: what to add, remove or rewrite, section by section.

Content Optimization →
When no page covers it

Create

A new-page opportunity, with the topic, intent, engines and estimated citation impact, ready to brief and draft.

Content Creation →
When pages overlap

Consolidate

Two pages chasing one citation are merged into one, so a single page carries the prompt.

Gap analysis

Six checks the GEO checker runs against the pages AI cites

Many generative engine optimization checkers stop at a score. For each prompt, Wellows pulls the 20 to 50 pages AI engines cite and compares them with yours, section by section, and every gap comes with its fix.

Topic coverage

Sub-topics the cited pages cover and yours doesn't.

Fix: add a section on client portals

Heading structure

Headings that match the questions people ask the engine.

Fix: turn H2s into the questions

Depth

Where your page is thinner than the sources being cited.

Fix: add setup steps and examples

Format

Tables, lists and steps that engines can lift straight into an answer.

Fix: add a comparison table

Entities

The products, features and terms the cited pages name.

Fix: name the integrations you support

Intent

Whether the page answers the prompt the way buyers ask it.

Fix: lead with the recommendation

Plus internal links: the supporting pages that should link to the optimized page, with suggested anchor text.

From brief to draft

No page to fix? Build the one AI will cite

New pages start from what engines already reward, so you never begin with a blank document.

  1. Opportunity. A prompt where competitors are cited and you have no page, with its intent, engines and estimated citation impact.

  2. Research. KIVA finds the keywords and follow-up questions from your Search Console data, alongside how AI engines interpret the topic, community discussions and what the cited pages cover.

  3. Brief. Structure, headings, intent and keywords in one editable brief. Change headings, word counts and themes before drafting.

  4. Draft. Wellows drafts the page in your brand guidelines, using any knowledge sources you upload.

  5. Check. Content Score runs readability, originality and fact checks before you publish.

  6. Prove. Performance History shows the citations the page wins, with dates.

  • I've been testing a tool called Wellows that turns these hidden signals into real visibility. The workflow is surprisingly smart!

  • If you want to measure AI visibility, reliably track your LLM citations, identify where competitors are winning, and systematically close those gaps. That's exactly what Wellows is built for.

  • You're guessing which sites to contact. Guessing what to say. Guessing if it'll even move the needle on AI visibility. That's where Wellows turns this into a repeatable system. And it's why I've decided to use this.

    Alex GrobermanFounder, Alex Groberman Labs
  • Your client's competitors are being cited by ChatGPT. Your client isn't. And until you fix that, the gap is only going to widen. The strategy is simple. Get your client onto the pages that LLMs already trust. But finding those pages? That used to be a nightmare. Wellows changes this completely.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a generative engine optimization checker?

A generative engine optimization (GEO) checker tests your content against the pages AI engines such as ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, Google AI Overviews and Google AI Mode already cite for a prompt. It shows what's missing and tells you how to fix or create the page so it gets cited. Read what generative engine optimization is.

What does GEO checking software look at?

Wellows checks topic coverage, heading structure, depth, format, entities and intent against the 20 to 50 pages AI engines cite for the prompt, plus internal links. Each gap comes with the specific line to add, remove or rewrite.

How is GEO different from SEO?

GEO starts from AI answers, not rankings. It looks at the prompts buyers ask AI engines and the pages those engines cite, then changes your content so it covers what those pages cover, in a form an engine can use as a source.

What is LLM GEO?

LLM GEO is generative engine optimization aimed at answers from large language models such as ChatGPT, Gemini and Perplexity, as well as Google AI Overviews and AI Mode. The goal is the same on every engine: get your page used, and linked, as a source.

Why measure GEO in citations rather than mentions?

A mention means the model knows your name. A citation means it used your page as a source and points the reader to it, which is where authority and referral traffic come from. That is why Wellows reports GEO results as citations won, by engine and date.

Can GEO change how AI describes my brand?

Yes. Every brand has a shadow reputation in AI search, built from the pages engines cite about it. Wellows shows which cited URLs carry negative or outdated claims, so you can update your own pages, publish a better source or pitch a correction to the site.

How does Wellows decide which page to optimize?

Wellows scans your whole domain first and scores every relevant page by intent and depth, then picks the single best page for each prompt. If no page fits, it flags a new page to create; if several pages overlap, it suggests consolidating them.

Can Wellows write the content?

Yes. KIVA finds the keywords and questions to cover, Wellows builds an editable brief and drafts the page in your brand guidelines, and Content Score checks readability, originality and facts before you publish.

How do I know GEO worked?

Performance History compares any two dates and shows the citations each page gained or lost, so every change has a dated result.

Does the free trial need a credit card?

Yes. Every plan includes a 7-day free trial, and a credit card is required to start it.
