Market: Sweden (sv)
Each model is asked to answer as a buyer in Sweden, so your visibility reflects your actual market, not a global/US bias.
Företaget säljer ett sortiment av ytter- och innerdörrar, fönster, altandörrar samt garageportar med fokus på hög kvalitet till låga priser. Produkterna erbjuds via en on‑lineplattform där beställning sker direkt från fabriken och leverans sker till kundens hem. Företaget riktar sig främst till privatpersoner som renoverar eller bygger nytt, men kan även tillgodose behov hos mindre byggföretag och entreprenörer. Det konkurrerar inom kategorin bygg- och byggmaterial, där huvuduppgiften är att förse kunder med prisvärda, färdigmonterade dörr- och fönsterlösningar för bostäder och mindre kommersiella fastigheter.

Share of best-practice (AEO) signals in place for AI visibility. Only scored when we can read your site.33.3%
AI Readiness
Whether your site is technically optimised for AI.
Rises as you add the checklist signals - the groundwork that lets AI recognize you.
AI Readiness is how well your own website is built for AI to read and cite - something you control. AI Visibility is whether AI actually knows and recommends you - shaped mostly by the rest of the web. You can be fully ready and still under-recommended; that gap is where the opportunity is.
Not ranked yet - no mentions on neutral buyer questions
Why you're underperforming
Your pages are not yet prepared for AI to read and cite them (readiness 33/100), which is holding AI visibility at 0/100.
What moves the needle: FAQ / questions and answers, Organization entity (sameAs), Structured data (JSON-LD)
Where you show up across AI models
Your brand and competitors as rows, AI models as columns. Each cell counts how often they are mentioned.
Ranking is based on neutral buyer questions. We don't count questions that already name you, so it's a fair comparison with competitors. ?
Your rank is based on how often each brand is named unprompted across the neutral buyer questions. M = the brands compared (you plus your competitors). A model can recognize you and still not name you unprompted, so a 0 here is a visibility gap, not a sign the model does not know you.
Recognition was not measured for this older analysis. Re-run it to see which models recognize you.
Note: some models did not answer every question this run (z-ai/glm-5.1); their column may understate them.

Upgrade to ProHow AI describes you
How each AI model summarizes your site when given your details. This is what a model writes back about you from the description we passed it - not our own reading, and not proof the model knows you unprompted (see recognition).
These summaries are written from the details we gave each model, not fetched live or source-cited. Whether a model already knows you on its own is a separate signal - see recognition. See the models and their cutoffs ?
AI answers can come from two places: a model's trained knowledge (what we measure here), and grounded answers where the model fetches and cites live sources. Grounded, cited measurement is a separate mode we plan to add later; today's report is the trained-knowledge view, per each model's cutoff.
We asked each model about your exact company (your domain + what you do), so the answer is not about a different company with a similar name.
Recognition was not measured for this older analysis. Re-run it to see which models recognize you.

Baserat på den information du har gett mig kan jag inte bekräfta att ett företag med exakt det namnet och den beskrivningen är ett väletablerat eller allmänt känt varumärke på den svenska marknaden. Det finns en risk att det är en nyare aktör, en mindre nischad e-handlare, eller ett varumärke som inte är allmänt recenserat ännu. **Med utgångspunkt från just den beskrivning du gav, är detta vad företaget på doorly.

AI visibility checklist
Readiness score: 33.3%
We check your homepage and a few key linked pages (like /faq and /about) - where AI reads first. A cross means we did not find the signal there, not that it cannot exist elsewhere on your site.

Can AI crawlers find and read your site at all? These signals tell language models where your content lives and that they are welcome to read it.
-
✓
llms.txt present
?
What: a /llms.txt that describes your service for AI crawlers. Why: it helps language models understand what you do and cite you correctly (like robots.txt, but for AI). -
✓
robots.txt present
?
What: a /robots.txt that controls what crawlers may read. Why: without it, important pages can be missed or the wrong pages indexed. -
✓
sitemap.xml present
?
What: a /sitemap.xml listing your pages. Why: crawlers and AI find your whole structure so nothing important is missed.
Machine-readable facts about who you are and what you offer. The clearer your structured data, the more accurately AI can understand and describe you instead of guessing.
-
✗
Structured data (JSON-LD)
?
What: JSON-LD describing your company and products in a machine-readable way. Why: AI uses it to understand what you are and describe you correctly.
Add schema.org JSON-LD (Organization/Product/FAQ).Organization schema (JSON-LD)<script type="application/ld+json"> { "@context": "https://schema.org", "@type": "Organization", "name": "Doorly", "url": "https://doorly.se", "logo": "https://doorly.se/logo.png", "description": "One or two plain sentences describing what Doorly does and who it is for.", "sameAs": [ "https://www.linkedin.com/company/your-company" ] } </script> -
✗
FAQ / questions and answers
?
What: an FAQ with clear questions and answers. Why: it matches how people ask AI - models often lift answers straight from well-structured FAQs.
Add an FAQ that answers buyer questions (ideally with FAQPage schema).FAQ schema (FAQPage JSON-LD)<script type="application/ld+json"> { "@context": "https://schema.org", "@type": "FAQPage", "mainEntity": [ { "@type": "Question", "name": "What does Doorly do?", "acceptedAnswer": { "@type": "Answer", "text": "Answer in one or two plain sentences a model can quote directly." } }, { "@type": "Question", "name": "Who is Doorly for?", "acceptedAnswer": { "@type": "Answer", "text": "Describe your ideal customer in plain language." } } ] } </script> -
✗
Article schema (JSON-LD)
?
What: JSON-LD of type Article/BlogPosting with author, publisher and dates. Why: it helps AI understand the page is editorial content, who stands behind it and how fresh it is - signals that weigh in when models choose what to cite.
Mark up articles and guides with Article schema (author, publisher, datePublished).Article schema (JSON-LD)<script type="application/ld+json"> { "@context": "https://schema.org", "@type": "Article", "headline": "Your article title", "author": { "@type": "Organization", "name": "Doorly" }, "publisher": { "@type": "Organization", "name": "Doorly", "logo": { "@type": "ImageObject", "url": "https://doorly.se/logo.png" } }, "datePublished": "YYYY-MM-DD", "dateModified": "YYYY-MM-DD", "mainEntityOfPage": "https://doorly.se/your-article", "description": "One or two plain sentences summarising the article so a model can quote it." } </script> -
✗
HowTo schema (JSON-LD)
?
What: JSON-LD of type HowTo for step-by-step content. Why: it makes instructions machine-readable so AI can reproduce your steps correctly instead of guessing.
Add HowTo schema to guides and step-by-step pages. -
✗
Organization entity (sameAs)
?
What: Organization schema with sameAs links to your official profiles (e.g. LinkedIn, Wikidata). Why: it ties your company to a clear entity so AI does not confuse you with someone else and describes you correctly.
Add Organization schema with sameAs links to your official profiles.
The plain, static content AI actually reads. Clear titles, headings and descriptions in the page source mean models read what you do instead of an empty shell.
-
✗
Canonical URL
?
What: a canonical URL points to the 'real' address when the same content lives on several URLs. Why: it stops your visibility being split across duplicates.
Set a canonical URL on each page. -
✓
Meta description
?
What: the page's short summary. Why: search engines and AI use it to describe you - a good description means you are described the way you want. -
✓
Page title
?
What: the page title. Why: it is the first thing AI and search engines read - a clear title with what you do helps you get named in the right context. -
✗
Clear main heading (H1) in the page source
?
What: a main heading (H1) present in the page source. Why: AI crawlers often do not run JavaScript - a static, clear heading means they actually read what you do instead of seeing an empty page.
Have a clear H1 stating what the page is about, in server-rendered HTML.
Who stands behind the content and how current it is. Clear authorship and dates are credibility signals AI weighs when it decides whether to trust and cite you.
-
✗
Published/updated dates
?
What: datePublished/dateModified in markup or <time> elements. Why: freshness matters - AI often prefers updated content and can show when something was last changed.
Expose published and updated dates in markup (datePublished/dateModified or <time datetime>).
