The GEO audit is Videntic’s diagnostic for why a page isn’t getting cited. Every page on your tracked website is scored against the sixteen pillars of the GEO‑16 framework, with specific, actionable issues flagged for each pillar.

​
Why GEO audits matter

  • Actionable: unlike a visibility score, the audit tells you what to change. Each pillar comes with a list of specific issues on specific pages.
  • Page-level: your homepage and product pages have different jobs. The audit scores them independently so you can prioritize.
  • Connected to outcomes: pillar results drive your AI Visibility Score. Fixing what the audit flags moves the metric.

​
Run an audit

1

Open the Audit tab

From your website dashboard, click Audit in the left-hand nav.
2

Review the overall score

You’ll see your site-wide GEO‑16 score at the top, with the number of pillars passing, borderline, and failing.
3

Drill into a pillar

Click any pillar card to see which pages fail it and why. Failing items link directly to the page in question.
4

Drill into a page

From any page’s row, click through to see all sixteen pillar results for that single URL — its strengths and weaknesses.
Audits run automatically with every scheduled analysis. You don’t need to trigger them separately unless you want an on-demand audit after shipping fixes.

​
Understand a pillar result

Each pillar result on a page has three parts:
  • Status: passing, borderline, or failing.
  • Issues found: specific problems Videntic detected (e.g. “No schema.org/Article markup found”, “Publication date missing”).
  • Suggested fix: a short recommendation you can hand to a developer or content editor.
Some pillars — like Authority & Trust — will flag site-wide issues (e.g. “No About page found”) that apply to every page. Others, like Structured Data, are per-page.

​
Prioritize fixes

Videntic ranks pillar failures by impact, factoring in:
  • How much traffic/visibility the affected page drives.
  • How likely the pillar is to block citation on its own.
  • Whether the same issue repeats across many pages (fixing once, winning many).
Your audit shows a Top 5 fixes card on the dashboard — the highest-leverage improvements across the whole site. Start there.

Audit with Sira

If you prefer a conversational read, ask Sira:
Audit my pricing page against GEO‑16
The GEO Auditor specialist walks the sixteen pillars one by one, points out what’s missing, and drafts the fix — so you can hand a concrete brief to your dev or content team. See Sira AI.

​
After you ship fixes

Fixes take one to two analysis cycles to reflect in the score — models need to re-encounter the updated pages. The fastest way to close the loop:
  1. Ship the fix.
  2. Re-run an analysis from the dashboard.
  3. Compare the pillar result before/after on the audit page.
Not every pillar moves at the same speed. Technical pillars (Semantic HTML, Structured Data, Metadata) update immediately. Authority pillars (Evidence & Citations, Transparency) can take several weeks to shift because they reflect external perception as much as on-page signals.
