Question 1

Which AI inference platforms are the most visible to AI search engines?

Accepted Answer

In our October 18, 2026 crawl, the top-scoring AI inference platforms were Hyperbolic (96/100), Runpod (96/100), Vast.ai (96/100). The score measures how easily ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude and AI agents can crawl, understand and use each product's homepage.

Question 2

How do AI inference platforms compare with the rest of the AI Visibility Index?

Accepted Answer

The 17 AI inference platforms we track average 85/100, 1 points below the 86/100 average across all 538 SaaS and AI sites in the index.

Question 3

What is the most common AI visibility gap among AI inference platforms?

Accepted Answer

82% of the AI inference platforms we checked miss "Question & answer content" (vs 71% across the whole index). Fix: Add an FAQ answering the exact questions buyers ask ChatGPT ("best X for Y", "X vs Y", "how much does X cost").

Question 4

How is the AI visibility score calculated?

Accepted Answer

RankRoot checks four areas on each homepage: AI crawler access (robots.txt rules for GPTBot, ClaudeBot, PerplexityBot and others), answer-engine content (title, headings, FAQ-style content, server-rendered text), structured data (JSON-LD, Organization/Product schema) and agent readiness (llms.txt, discoverable API or MCP server). Each area is scored 0 to 100 and combined into one score.

Question 5

When was this data collected, and can a company update its score?

Accepted Answer

Scores are a snapshot from our crawler on October 18, 2026. They are not updated automatically. Anyone can rescan a site live for free, and we refresh the index periodically.
