ScopeDome scores 26/100 for AI visibility - how well ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity and Google AI Overviews can discover, identify and cite the brand.
ScopeDome has a weak AI-visibility profile at 26/100 - a proxy for how readily ChatGPT, Perplexity and Google's AI Overviews can recognise and cite it. Its strongest area is trust (48/100) and its weakest is visibility (0/100). It benefits from open access for AI crawlers (GPTBot, ClaudeBot, etc.) and machine-readable schema.org markup. The main gaps holding it back: no clear Wikipedia entity to anchor it in LLM training data, no strong Wikidata entry and a low Moz Domain Authority of 27/100. In a live check, Claude could already identify ScopeDome from memory (November 2026) - a sign these signals are paying off.
