angeo/module-aeo-brand-visibility
Live AI brand visibility audit for Magento 2 — queries ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, Gemini and Groq with brand-probing prompts and scores real-world AI recall, citation rate and recommendation presence.
angeo/module-aeo-brand-visibility is an open-source Magento 2 module that answers one question: when someone asks ChatGPT "where should I buy X?", does your store appear in the answer? It runs configurable prompts across all major AI providers, detects brand signals in responses, and scores your visibility from 0 to 100 with a letter grade.

What it measures
Each AI query result is analysed for five signals:
| Signal | Description |
|---|---|
| Mentioned | Your brand name appears in the AI response |
| Recommended | AI actively suggests your store as a destination |
| URL Cited | Your domain is included in the answer |
| 1st Position | Your store is the first recommendation |
| Positive Sentiment | Response tone about your brand is positive |
Each signal has a configurable weight. The overall score is a weighted average across all successful query results, converted to 0–100 and graded A–F.
Supported AI providers
| Provider | Models | Cost | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Groq | llama-3.3-70b-versatile, mixtral-8x7b | Free | Best starting point — 14,400 req/day, no card |
| Perplexity | sonar, sonar-pro, sonar-deep-research | Paid | Live web search — most realistic signal |
| OpenAI | gpt-4.1, gpt-4.1-mini, gpt-4o | Paid | |
| Anthropic Claude | claude-sonnet-4-6, claude-haiku-4-5 | Paid | |
| Google Gemini | gemini-2.5-flash-preview, gemini-2.0-flash | Free tier + paid |
Enable one or more providers. Each active provider runs all configured prompts, and results are aggregated into a single score.
Requirements
- PHP 8.2, 8.3, or 8.4
- Magento 2.4.6 / 2.4.7 / 2.4.8 (Adobe Commerce / Mage-OS supported)

Scoring explained
Each AI query produces a BrandQueryResult with five boolean signals. Signals are weighted and averaged:
query_score = sum(signal_weight for each detected signal) /
sum(all_signal_weights) * 100
The overall score is the average of all successful query scores. Failed queries (API errors) are excluded from the average.
Example with default weights:
- 1st Position detected → +2.0
- Recommended detected → +1.5
- URL Cited not detected → 0
- Mentioned detected → +1.0
- Positive Sentiment detected → +0.5
query_score = (2.0 + 1.5 + 1.0 + 0.5) / (2.0 + 1.5 + 1.5 + 1.0 + 0.5) * 100
= 5.0 / 6.5 * 100 = 76.9 → Grade B
How to improve your score
| Signal missing | Root cause | Fix |
|---|---|---|
| Not mentioned | AI has no knowledge of your brand | Publish content that AI systems crawl: Dev.to, Reddit, GitHub |
| URL not cited | Domain not in AI training data or live index | Install angeo/module-llms-txt to give AI systems a structured map of your site |
| Not recommended | No authority signals in AI-accessible content | Add Product and Organization JSON-LD via angeo/module-rich-data |
| Not 1st position | Competitors have stronger AI presence | Increase external mentions: guest posts, Packagist downloads, GitHub stars |
| Negative sentiment | Poor reviews or negative coverage | Address public feedback; ensure AI-crawlable content is positive |
Run bin/magento angeo:aeo:audit for a full 8-signal technical AEO audit to identify and fix the infrastructure issues that block AI indexing.
Integration with angeo/module-aeo-audit
When angeo/module-aeo-audit v3.0+ is installed (required dependency), this
module adds a brand_visibility checker to the AEO audit pipeline as the
17th signal alongside the 16 built-in ones.
# Full 17-signal audit including brand visibility
bin/magento angeo:aeo:audit
# Skip brand visibility (saves API calls) — runs only the 16 built-in technical checks
bin/magento angeo:aeo:audit --category=technical,feed
# Run only live signals (this checker + AI bot traffic)
bin/magento angeo:aeo:audit --category=live_signal
Brand visibility is registered with:
- Category:
live_signal— calls external APIs - Severity:
critical— headline AEO metric - Weight: 1.0 — top-tier signal in the score
Pass/warn/fail status is driven by your configured score thresholds
(default pass = 80, warn = 60).
Custom-checker authors
This module is the canonical example of how to extend the audit pipeline.
v3 checker contract:
public function check(\Magento\Store\Api\Data\StoreInterface $store): CheckResult;
public function getCategory(): string; // CheckerInterface::CATEGORY_*
public function getSeverity(): string; // CheckerInterface::SEVERITY_*
Extending \Angeo\AeoAudit\Model\Checker\AbstractChecker is the easiest
path — you get HttpCache + StoreUrlSampler + JSON-LD parsing
helpers + result factory methods for free.

Changelog
All notable changes to angeo/module-aeo-brand-visibility will be documented in this file.
The format is based on Keep a Changelog,
and this project adheres to Semantic Versioning.
[1.1.0] — 2026-05-22
Compatibility — required for angeo/module-aeo-audit v3.0+
This release adapts BrandVisibilityChecker to the v3 CheckerInterface
introduced in angeo/module-aeo-audit 3.0.0. Without this update, attempting
to use brand-visibility v1.0.x with aeo-audit v3.x produces a fatal at boot:
Fatal error: Declaration of
Angeo\AeoBrandVisibility\Model\Checker\BrandVisibilityChecker::check(string $baseUrl)
must be compatible with
Angeo\AeoAudit\Api\CheckerInterface::check(Magento\Store\Api\Data\StoreInterface $store)
Changed
BrandVisibilityChecker::check()signature updated to accept
\Magento\Store\Api\Data\StoreInterface $store(wasstring $baseUrl).BrandVisibilityCheckernow extends\Angeo\AeoAudit\Model\Checker\AbstractChecker
instead of implementingCheckerInterfacedirectly — gets sharedHttpCache,
StoreUrlSampler, and result factory helpers automatically.- Replaced direct
new CheckResult(...)calls with the v3 named factories
($this->pass()/$this->warn()/$this->fail()) — these correctly
propagatecheckCode,weight,categoryandseverityinto the result. - The disabled-module case now returns WARN instead of the removed
STATUS_SKIP(the v3 status vocabulary is pass / warn / fail only). - Weight clamped from 1.5 → 1.0 to fit the v3 normalised-weight contract
(0.0–1.0). Brand visibility remains a top-tier signal because all
technical checks at 1.0 share the same weight. - The service-exception catch broadened from
\RuntimeExceptionto
\Throwable— covers\Errorand\LogicExceptionfrom upstream
provider client libraries.
Added
getCategory(): string→ returnsCATEGORY_LIVE_SIGNAL(external API).
Allowsbin/magento angeo:aeo:audit --category=technicalto skip the
brand check for fast cron runs.getSeverity(): string→ returnsSEVERITY_CRITICAL. Plays with
--fail-on-severity=criticalfor CI gates.detailsarray now surfaces full breakdown: score, grade, queries
run/ok, all four signal rates, cache flag, configured thresholds.- New unit test suite
Test/Unit/Model/Checker/BrandVisibilityCheckerTest
with 13 test cases covering signature compatibility, short-circuits,
threshold-driven outcomes, recommendation building.
Migration from 1.0.x
For typical users — composer update angeo/module-aeo-brand-visibility.
The DI wiring in etc/di.xml is unchanged (the AuditRunner argument
extension is identical between v2 and v3 of aeo-audit).
If you pinned angeo/module-aeo-audit to v2.x:
- Keep
angeo/module-aeo-brand-visibilitypinned to^1.0, OR - Update both to v3.0+ together.
[1.0.0] — 2026-04-15
Added
- Initial release.
- Live AI brand audit across ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, Gemini and Groq.
- Five-signal scoring (Mentioned / Recommended / URL Cited / First Result / Sentiment).
- Configurable prompts, models, max_tokens, temperature per provider.
- Admin UI: History grid, Detail view, Run-Audit form, Plan preview.
- CLI:
bin/magento angeo:aeo:brand-visibility. - Cron support with cache TTL.
- Auto-registers as the 9th checker in
angeo/module-aeo-auditvia DI.
