# 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.
