FAQ
Questions, answered.
Everything you'd want to know about SignalFox and generative engine optimization.
Does SignalFox directly monitor ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, Perplexity, or Copilot?
No. SignalFox does not currently query or continuously monitor those consumer AI systems. It analyzes website and competitor evidence relevant to visibility in AI-assisted discovery.
How is GEO different from SEO?
SEO optimizes for ranked links on a search results page. GEO, generative engine optimization, optimizes how AI systems describe, summarize, and recommend your brand inside generated answers, where there is no traditional ranking.
Do I need to install anything on my website?
No. SignalFox crawls supported public website pages, metadata, and structured data. It does not probe each AI model directly.
How long does an audit take?
Completion time can vary with website accessibility, crawl processing, competitor evidence, and AI-assisted report generation.
How often should I re-run an audit?
Re-run it after meaningful website or positioning changes, then buy an updated evaluation from the saved company report when a fresh comparison would support a decision.
Is my data private?
Yes. Audits and reports are scoped to your workspace. We do not train AI models on your inputs and we never share data between customers.
Can SignalFox audit products and apps, not just websites?
Yes. We support websites, SaaS product pages, App Store listings, and Google Play listings as audit targets.
Why are some scores marked 'awaiting data'?
If required website evidence cannot be collected or interpreted confidently, the report shows an unavailable or incomplete state rather than inventing a value.
