How much does an AI visibility audit cost?

Pricing is confirmed after a short intake call, because scope varies with page count, locations, and whether local discovery is included. The audit is a fixed-price, one-time engagement — you will know the exact number before anything starts.

Can ChatGPT actually cite a small Indian business?

Yes — AI systems cite small businesses when the business is easy to verify: consistent entity information, real reviews, clear service pages, and direct answers to the questions buyers ask. Citation is never guaranteed, but businesses that fix these foundations are the ones that show up.

How long does AI citation growth take?

Foundational fixes are usually crawled within days to weeks, but citation behaviour changes more slowly and unevenly — expect meaningful movement over 60 to 90 days, not overnight. Anyone promising faster is guessing.

What affects whether an AI system mentions a company?

The strongest levers we see: content that exists in the initial HTML, one consistent entity definition everywhere, structured data that matches visible content, third-party corroboration (reviews, profiles, mentions), and pages that answer specific questions directly instead of talking around them.

Do I need this if I already rank well on Google?

Ranking well helps but does not transfer automatically. AI answer engines weigh extractability and entity trust differently from the classic ranking stack. The audit will tell you quickly whether your Google strength is carrying over — and where it is not.

What do I get at the end?

A written report with evidence for every finding, a fix list sequenced by commercial impact, and a walkthrough call. You can implement the fixes yourself, with your team, or with us — the report is yours either way.

What is an AI visibility audit?

Buyers increasingly ask AI systems — ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google AI Overviews — which clinic to trust, which hotel to book, which consultant to shortlist. Those systems can only recommend businesses they can crawl, understand, and verify. An AI visibility audit checks each of those steps for your business and shows exactly where you disappear from the answer.

It is not a traditional SEO audit with an AI sticker on it. Rankings are one input. The audit also examines whether your pages ship real content in the initial HTML, whether every page describes your business the same way, whether your structured data matches what the page actually says, and whether the questions your buyers ask have direct, extractable answers anywhere on your site.

Who it is for

The audit is built for founder-led service businesses where a missed enquiry is real lost revenue: clinics and healthcare practices, hotels and hospitality operators, professional services firms, and premium local service businesses. It works for businesses in India and for Indian businesses serving international clients.

It is not built for e-commerce catalogues, content publishers chasing ad traffic, or pre-revenue startups — the fixes it produces assume a working service business behind the website.

What the audit covers

Every audit reviews six layers. Each layer produces findings and a specific fix, sequenced by commercial impact.

Crawlability and indexation — does your real content exist in the initial HTML response, is the sitemap honest, are canonicals self-consistent
Entity consistency — does every page, schema block, and profile describe the same business the same way
Structured data — Organization, Person, Service, FAQ, and breadcrumb schema that matches visible content
Answer readiness — do priority buyer questions have direct, quotable answers on your pages
AI citation spot-checks — what ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google AI Overviews currently say when buyers ask about your category and city
Local discovery (where relevant) — Google Business Profile completeness, review signals, and citation consistency

What it does not include

The audit is a diagnosis, not a build. It does not include implementing the fixes, writing new pages, link acquisition, or ad management. It also does not promise AI citations — no honest agency can. What it gives you is a clear, sequenced picture of what stands between your business and being cited, and what each fix should change.

How the audit runs

The process is deliberately short — most audits complete within two weeks of receiving access.

Intake: a short form covering your services, priority locations, and the buyer questions that matter
Access: read-only Search Console and analytics access where available
Review: the six-layer audit, run against your site and your top competitors for the same questions
Report: a written report with findings, evidence, and a prioritised fix list
Walkthrough: a call to sequence the fixes — what to do first, what to skip, what to measure

How is this different from an SEO audit?

A classic SEO audit optimises for ranking positions in a list of links. An AI visibility audit optimises for being the answer: whether an answer engine can extract a clean claim about your business, attribute it to a consistent entity, and cite it with confidence. The overlap is real — crawlability and content quality matter to both — but the pass/fail criteria differ. A page can rank #3 on Google and still be invisible to ChatGPT because its key claim only renders client-side, or because the business calls itself three different things on three different pages.

We run this exact audit on lumagrowthlab.com itself and publish the results as an ongoing public build log — the same checks, the same fix list, measured in public.
