| # AI Visibility Sample: 500 US business websites |
|
|
| A free sample of the Engagemii AI visibility dataset. Each row is a real US business |
| website with a score from 0 to 10 for how findable and citable that site is to AI answer |
| engines such as ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, and Perplexity, plus a record of which AI |
| crawlers have actually visited it. |
|
|
| The full dataset covers 34.7M+ websites worldwide, 15.1M of them verified US businesses. |
| This sample is 500 rows drawn from the US set, spread across 20 business categories and |
| 48 states. |
|
|
| ## Why this exists |
|
|
| Answer engines cite a small number of sources when they respond. Most sites are never in |
| that set, and their owners have no way to see it: AI crawler traffic does not appear in |
| standard web analytics. This sample is published so people can look at the shape of the |
| problem with real data instead of anecdotes. |
|
|
| ## Columns |
|
|
| | Column | Description | |
| |---|---| |
| | `companyName` | Business name | |
| | `domain` | Registered domain | |
| | `websiteUrl` | Resolved site URL | |
| | `aeoScore` | AI visibility score, 0 to 10 | |
| | `aiBotHitsTotal` | Observed AI crawler requests to this site | |
| | `aiBotsSeen` | Which AI crawlers were observed, by name | |
| | `businessCategory` | Category, from a fixed 20-category set | |
| | `detectedPlatform` | CMS or site platform detected | |
| | `city`, `state`, `country` | Location | |
| | `industry` | Industry label | |
| | `employeeSize` | Employee count band | |
| | `pageTitle` | Homepage title tag | |
| | `hasWholesale` | Whether a wholesale offering was detected | |
|
|
| ## What is in this sample |
|
|
| In these 500 rows: |
|
|
| - Scores run from 0.6 to 8.1. The median is 4.7. No site in the sample reaches 9. |
| - 304 of 500 sites had at least one identified AI crawler visit recorded. |
| - ClaudeBot is the most frequently observed crawler in this sample, followed by GPTBot. |
| - Every domain is unique. Records are spread across 20 business categories and 48 states. |
|
|
| The score is a 0 to 10 measure built from on-page and off-page signals. The component |
| weights are not published. |
|
|
| ## What is not in here |
|
|
| No email addresses, no phone numbers, no personal data. Free text fields have been |
| stripped. This is company and website level information only. |
|
|
| ## Method and provenance |
|
|
| Scores and crawler observations come from our own crawling and analysis. Nothing in this |
| dataset is resold from a third party. |
|
|
| A note on the crawler columns: these record which AI crawlers were observed reaching a |
| site. They do not indicate that an AI engine cited the business. Citation is measured |
| separately, by checking the answers themselves. |
