Hourigan scores 37/100 for AI visibility - how well ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity and Google AI Overviews can discover, identify and cite the brand.
Hourigan has a weak AI-visibility profile at 37/100 - a proxy for how readily ChatGPT, Perplexity and Google's AI Overviews can recognise and cite it. Its strongest area is recommendation likelihood (45/100) and its weakest is visibility (33/100). It benefits from a Wikidata knowledge-graph entry, a global traffic rank of #4,236,210 (Tranco) and open access for AI crawlers (GPTBot, ClaudeBot, etc.). The main gaps holding it back: no clear Wikipedia entity to anchor it in LLM training data, a low Moz Domain Authority of 31/100 and no llms.txt to steer AI to its best pages. In a live check (September 2026), Claude could not identify Hourigan from memory, confirming the gaps above.
