AI Visibility Audit Template

A simple framework for reviewing how your brand, products and competitors appear across AI-led buyer journeys.

Use this template to structure a first-pass AI visibility audit. It will not replace a full Odyssiant audit, but it will help you see the questions to ask, the answers to capture and the gaps to investigate.

Audit setup

  • Brand or company being audited
  • Main website domain
  • Product, service line or practice area
  • Product/service URL
  • Primary buyer profile
  • Buyer role or department
  • Buyer industry or sector
  • Priority competitors
  • AI engines tested
  • Audit date

Prompt planning

Create prompts across the buyer journey, not just around brand names or keywords.

Buyer stageExample prompt typeWhat to test
AwarenessProblem-led questionDoes AI mention you when the buyer does not know your brand?
ConsiderationSolution/category questionAre you included as a relevant option?
EvaluationComparison questionHow do you appear against competitors?
DecisionRecommendation/risk questionAre you recommended, challenged or ignored?

Answer capture

  • Prompt used
  • AI engine tested
  • Answer summary
  • Was the brand mentioned?
  • Was the product/service mentioned?
  • Was the brand/product recommended?
  • Which competitors appeared?
  • What citations were used?
  • Were the citations owned, competitor-owned or third-party?
  • Was there any negative friction, such as weak reviews, outdated information or missing proof?

Scoring guide

Use simple manual scoring:

ScoreMeaning
0Not mentioned
1Mentioned only
2One of several
3Strongly positioned
4Primary recommendation

Manual scoring is directional only. Odyssiant uses a more detailed scoring model that also considers relevance, evidence, favourability, competitor position and friction.

Next actions

  • Create or improve product/service pages
  • Add comparison content
  • Strengthen proof points and case studies
  • Improve third-party source coverage
  • Review listings, directories and review platforms
  • Brief PR around missing evidence
  • Retest prompts after changes
