# GEO checker

New to GEO? Enter one domain and see, in plain terms, whether ChatGPT and DeepSeek name you for generative engine optimization, then unlock weekly tracking in MarketHQ.

## How it works

GEO-framed prompts: We ask ChatGPT and DeepSeek two fixed questions about generative engine optimization tools.

Shareable snapshot: Results cache for seven days so you can share a link without another run.

Then track weekly: This page is a one-off check. Ongoing visibility tracking is on paid plans. A Lite trial is the cheapest way in.

## What this checks

- The same two GEO-framed prompts as our GEO audit, sent to DeepSeek and ChatGPT, presented here for readers who are new to the term.
- A plain word-boundary match against your brand name and domain across the four resulting answers, not a model's opinion of your product.
- A single 0-100 score plus all four answers, so you can see both the number and the reasoning behind it.
- Cached per domain for 7 days, same as every free tool on this site.

## How to read your result

GEO, generative engine optimization, is whether AI assistants mention your product when someone asks a buying question in your category: the same idea as classic SEO, but for chat answers instead of search results. Your score is the share of the four answers that did. If you're new to the term, read the answers themselves first, not just the number, to see the actual language assistants use about your category.

## What to do next

1. If GEO is new to you, read every answer below the score first; it shows what a strong GEO answer actually looks like.
2. Compare your score against a competitor's domain to calibrate whether your own number is genuinely low.
3. A paid plan tracks this as a weekly metric instead of a one-time definition check.

## Limits

- Checks ChatGPT and DeepSeek only.
- 3 fresh checks per network (IP address) per day; 7-day shared cache per domain.
- Same underlying GEO check as our free GEO tool and GEO audit, framed for a first-time reader.

## FAQ

### What does a GEO checker do?

It checks whether generative assistants name your brand when someone asks for tools in your space. MarketHQ's paid plans track that weekly.

### Is this different from the GEO audit?

Same engines and cost path with checker framing. Use any of our GEO pages; MarketHQ treats them as one scoreboard.

### Is this really free?

Yes, limited daily checks with no card. For weekly AI tracking and community monitoring, begin a Lite trial.

### Is this different from the GEO audit or the free GEO tool?

Same check, same engines. This page leads with what GEO means for readers who haven't seen the term before; the audit page leads with the full checklist, and the free GEO tool leads with just the score.
