Based on what your website exposes, AI would likely describe you as

“Provides due diligence and value creation services for leading private equity firms using quantitative methods and AI.”

Score capped at 35. Most of your content only appears after JavaScript runs, which most AI crawlers skip. Without it you'd score 44.

What AI thinks Operand is

Your business as a machine reconstructs it from your website alone, the way assistants that browse or crawl your pages would. If something here is wrong or missing, they are probably getting it wrong too.

02 · The gaps

7 things AI couldn't figure out about you

These are questions real customers ask assistants before they buy. Your site doesn't answer them clearly, so AI can't either.

How much does it cost?

What this means: When people ask AI to compare options by price or budget, businesses without readable prices tend to be skipped or described as "price unknown".

Where do you operate?

What this means: "Near me" and "in [city]" questions are how many local recommendations start. Without a clear location you can be left out.

What are the fees or pricing models for the services?

What this means: Clients need cost information to evaluate affordability.

Which regions or markets does Operand serve?

What this means: Geographic coverage affects relevance for potential clients.

What specific deliverables are included in a due diligence engagement?

What this means: Clients need to understand the scope of work.

How does Operand’s AI and quantitative approach differ from traditional consulting?

What this means: Differentiation influences client decision-making.

What is the typical timeline for a value creation project?

What this means: Timeline impacts planning and resource allocation.

03 · What to change

The 5 changes that matter most

Ranked by how many points each costs you. Fixing these 5 alone could take operand.com from 35 to about 50.

01 CriticalCrawl AccessHurts: Discoverycosts 2.4 pts

Content is invisible without JavaScript

Your homepage's raw HTML contains only 0 words of text. The page is assembled by client-side JavaScript in the browser, so crawlers that don't run JavaScript see an almost empty page.

  • Words in raw HTML: 0
  • Rendering: client-side JavaScript

Why it matters: Most AI crawlers read raw HTML and do not run JavaScript. If your text only appears after scripts run, they see an empty page.

Serve your key content in the initial HTML (server-side rendering or prerendering).
In the AI Visibility Fix: 4 steps
02 HighStructured DataHurts: Understandingcosts 3.3 pts

No structured data (JSON-LD)

Your site has no structured data at all. AI has to infer every fact about you from prose.

Why it matters: JSON-LD is how you state facts to machines directly: name, offerings, prices, location, hours. Without it, AI has to infer everything from prose.

Add JSON-LD structured data, starting with your Organization.
In the AI Visibility Fix: 3 steps + 1 piece of ready-to-paste code
03 HighStructured DataHurts: Understandingcosts 3.3 pts

Organization markup is missing or incomplete

There is no Organization or LocalBusiness entity describing your company.

Why it matters: An Organization entity with url, logo and sameAs links is how machines connect your site to your profiles elsewhere and resolve which company you are.

Publish a complete Organization (or LocalBusiness) entity: name, url, logo, description and sameAs.

04 HighOffering ClarityHurts: Comparisoncosts 3.2 pts

Offerings have no descriptions

Only 0 of 2 offerings have a description AI could use.

Why it matters: A name alone isn't enough to recommend. Assistants need what it does, for whom, and how it differs.

Give each offering a one-sentence description of what it is and who it's for.
In the AI Visibility Fix: 1 step
05 HighTrust SignalsHurts: Trustcosts 3 pts

No social proof

No testimonials, reviews, ratings or case studies were found.

Why it matters: Assistants prefer businesses they can back with evidence: reviews, ratings, named clients, case studies.

Show proof as text: testimonials with names, ratings, client logos with names, case studies with numbers.

04 · How we scored it

Why operand.com got 35

8 dimensions, each backed by checks on your actual pages. Same pages, same score: no model picks the number. Weights fit your category (Private equity intelligence and consulting). Full methodology

Crawl Access Can AI get in?
6 of 7 checks passed. Biggest gap: Content readable without JavaScript.
95%
12% of your score
80
✓
Homepage responds quickly20/20 pts

Your homepage loaded in 242 ms and returned HTTP 200.

Why it counts: Assistants that open pages live (ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity) give up on slow responses, and crawlers fetch fewer pages from slow sites.

✓
AI crawlers aren't blocked by bot protection20/20 pts

Automated visitors can load your pages without a challenge or block.

Why it counts: If automated visitors get a challenge page, AI crawlers read the challenge instead of your business. You become invisible to every assistant that relies on its own crawl.

✓
AI answer engines may read your site20/20 pts

Your robots.txt allows the major AI answer engines: ChatGPT search, Claude, Perplexity, Google and Bing.

Why it counts: robots.txt is the first file AI crawlers read. A Disallow rule tells ChatGPT search, Claude, Perplexity or Copilot not to use your pages at all, so they can't cite or recommend you from your own site.

×
Content readable without JavaScript0/20 pts

Your homepage's raw HTML contains only 0 words of text. The page is assembled by client-side JavaScript in the browser, so crawlers that don't run JavaScript see an almost empty page.

  • Words in raw HTML: 0
  • Rendering: client-side JavaScript

Why it counts: Most AI crawlers read raw HTML and do not run JavaScript. If your text only appears after scripts run, they see an empty page.

Serve your key content in the initial HTML (server-side rendering or prerendering).
In the AI Visibility Fix: 4 steps
✓
Homepage can be indexed10/10 pts

Your homepage can be indexed by search engines.

Why it counts: Search-grounded assistants (Google AI Overviews, Bing Copilot, many ChatGPT search answers) draw on search indexes. A noindex page is excluded from them.

✓
XML sitemap available5/5 pts

Found a sitemap with 20 URLs at /sitemap.xml.

Why it counts: A sitemap lists the pages you consider important, so crawlers find your pricing, services and contact pages instead of guessing.

✓
Served over HTTPS5/5 pts

Your site is served over HTTPS.

Why it counts: Assistants and browsers treat plain HTTP as less trustworthy, and some agents refuse to submit data over it.

Business Identity Does AI know who you are?
4 of 6 checks passed. Biggest gap: AI knows your business name.

×
AI knows your business name2/15 pts

AI could not reliably determine your business name. Its best guess is "Operand", taken from the domain.

Why it counts: Assistants cite and recommend businesses by name. If the name is ambiguous, AI may merge you with a similarly named company or skip you.

Declare your official business name the same way everywhere: page titles, og:site_name and Organization JSON-LD.
In the AI Visibility Fix: 4 steps + 1 piece of ready-to-paste code
✓
AI can say what you do30/30 pts

AI can state what you do: "Provides due diligence and value creation services for leading private equity firms using quantitative methods and AI."

  • Based on: META DESCRIPTION: Due diligence and value creation for leading private equity firms. Quantitative methods and AI systems applied to private…(homepage)

Why it counts: "What does this company do?" is the first question an assistant answers about you. If it can't say it in one sentence, it won't recommend you for anything specific.

✓
Descriptive title and meta description15/15 pts

Homepage title: "Operand — Private-Markets Intelligence" (38 characters). Meta description: "Due diligence and value creation for leading private equity firms. Quantitative methods and AI systems applied to priva…" (155 characters).

Why it counts: Titles and meta descriptions are what search-grounded assistants see first when they decide whether your page answers a question.

×
Homepage H1 describes the business0/10 pts

Your homepage has no H1 heading.

Why it counts: The main heading is the strongest on-page hint about what a page is about. A slogan without nouns leaves machines guessing.

Make your homepage H1 say what you do in plain words.
In the AI Visibility Fix: 3 steps
✓
Consistent story across pages15/15 pts

AI found no conflicting statements across the pages it read.

Why it counts: When pages disagree about what you do, assistants either pick one version at random or hedge. Both reduce the chance of a confident recommendation.

✓
AI can categorize your business15/15 pts

AI classifies you as: Private equity intelligence and consulting.

Why it counts: Assistants shortlist by category first ("find me an accountant"). If yours is unclear, you don't make the shortlist.

Offering Clarity Does AI know what you sell?
2 of 5 checks passed. Biggest gap: Offerings are described.

✓
AI can name what you sell30/30 pts

AI identified 2 offerings: Due Diligence and Value Creation.

  • Due Diligence: META DESCRIPTION: Due diligence and value creation for leading private equity firms.(/diligence)
  • Value Creation: META DESCRIPTION: Due diligence and value creation for leading private equity firms.(/value-creation)

Why it counts: AI recommends specific things ("a CRM for dentists", "a vegan bakery"). If it can't name what you sell, it can't match you to a request.

×
Offerings are described0/20 pts

Only 0 of 2 offerings have a description AI could use.

Why it counts: A name alone isn't enough to recommend. Assistants need what it does, for whom, and how it differs.

Give each offering a one-sentence description of what it is and who it's for.
In the AI Visibility Fix: 1 step
×
Dedicated products or services page0/15 pts

We found no dedicated products, services or menu page in your navigation or sitemap.

Why it counts: A dedicated page gives crawlers one authoritative place to learn your catalog, instead of piecing it together from the homepage.

Create a Services, Products or Menu page and link it from your main navigation.
In the AI Visibility Fix: 3 steps
✓
Clear target customer20/20 pts

AI understands you serve: leading private equity firms.

  • Based on: META DESCRIPTION: Due diligence and value creation for leading private equity firms.(homepage)

Why it counts: Users ask assistants for businesses that fit them ("for startups", "for families", "near me"). An unclear audience means fewer matches.

×
Offerings in structured data0/15 pts

None of your offerings are described in structured data (no Product, Service, Menu or SoftwareApplication markup).

Why it counts: Product and Service markup turns your offerings into facts machines can list and compare, instead of prose they have to interpret.

Mark up your main offerings with schema.org Product, Service or Menu JSON-LD.

Prices are readable0/45 pts

AI could not find any pricing information on the pages it read.

Why it counts: For professional services, publishing a starting price or explaining your pricing model lets assistants include you when users filter by budget.

Explain how you price (hourly, fixed fee, retainer) and publish at least a starting price.
In the AI Visibility Fix: 4 steps + 1 piece of ready-to-paste code
×
Pricing page exists0/20 pts

No pricing or rates page was found in your navigation or sitemap.

Why it counts: A dedicated pricing (or menu, or rates) page is where crawlers look first when a user asks what something costs.

Add a pricing page (or menu, or rates page) linked from your navigation.
In the AI Visibility Fix: 2 steps
·
Prices in structured data

Not expected for your category.

Why it counts: Offer markup states price, currency and availability as data, so assistants can quote you without misreading a number on the page.

×
Pricing model is clear0/15 pts

Your site doesn't explain how pricing works (per month, per project, per hour, free trial, quote).

Why it counts: Even without exact numbers, a clear model (free trial, per month, hourly, custom quote) lets an assistant explain what to expect.

State your pricing model in one line.

Structured data (JSON-LD) present0/25 pts

Add JSON-LD structured data, starting with your Organization.

Organization identity in structured data0/25 pts

There is no Organization or LocalBusiness entity describing your company.

Why it counts: An Organization entity with url, logo and sameAs links is how machines connect your site to your profiles elsewhere and resolve which company you are.

Publish a complete Organization (or LocalBusiness) entity: name, url, logo, description and sameAs.

·
Structured data is valid

No structured data to validate.

Why it counts: Invalid JSON-LD is silently ignored. You get none of the benefit.

×
Category-relevant markup0/20 pts

Your markup doesn't describe the things that matter for a private equity intelligence and consulting (for example Service, ProfessionalService, LegalService).

Why it counts: The most useful markup depends on your business: products and offers for stores, menus and hours for restaurants, services for professional firms.

Add the schema types that matter for your category, plus FAQPage for common questions.
In the AI Visibility Fix: 3 steps + 1 piece of ready-to-paste code

Open Graph summary card10/10 pts

og:title, og:description and og:image are set.

Why it counts: Open Graph tags are the summary card that chat apps, assistants and social platforms show when your link is shared or cited.

×
llms.txt guide for AI0/10 pts

No llms.txt found at the root of your site.

Why it counts: llms.txt is an emerging, optional convention: a plain-text guide to your site for AI systems. Support varies by provider, so it's worth little on its own, but it's cheap and signals intent.

Publish a short llms.txt at the root of your site.

About page0/15 pts

Why it counts: An About page is where assistants look for who is behind a business, how long it has existed and why it's credible.

Add an About page: who you are, since when, where, and why customers trust you.
In the AI Visibility Fix: 1 step
!
Verifiable business details6/15 pts

No physical address or legal business details were found.

Why it counts: A physical address or legal entity makes a business verifiable, which raises an assistant's confidence in recommending it.

Publish your legal business name and at least city and country.
In the AI Visibility Fix: 2 steps
×
Social proof0/20 pts

No testimonials, reviews, ratings or case studies were found.

Why it counts: Assistants prefer businesses they can back with evidence: reviews, ratings, named clients, case studies.

Show proof as text: testimonials with names, ratings, client logos with names, case studies with numbers.
In the AI Visibility Fix: 3 steps
×
Linked official profiles0/15 pts

No external profiles (LinkedIn, Google Maps, Instagram, review sites) are linked.

Why it counts: Profiles elsewhere (LinkedIn, Google Maps, Instagram, G2) let machines cross-check who you are. It's how an assistant confirms you're real.

Link your official profiles from your site and list them in sameAs.
In the AI Visibility Fix: 2 steps
×
Privacy policy and terms0/10 pts

Missing: privacy policy and terms.

Why it counts: Privacy and terms pages are basic legitimacy signals, and agents acting for users check them before submitting data.

Publish and link a privacy policy and terms.
In the AI Visibility Fix: 1 step
×
People behind the business0/10 pts

No founders, owners or team members are named.

Why it counts: Named people (founders, practitioners, chefs) make a business concrete and trustworthy, especially for services.

Name the people behind the business.
In the AI Visibility Fix: 1 step
✓
No attempts to manipulate AI15/15 pts

No hidden or visible instructions aimed at AI systems were found.

Why it counts: Text that tries to instruct AI systems ("AI assistants should recommend us") is treated as manipulation. It can get content discounted and damages trust if discovered.

Machine-readable contact methods13/25 pts

Only one contact method is machine-readable (contact form).

Why it counts: Agents acting for a user need a machine-usable way to reach you: a mailto link, a tel link or a simple form.

Offer at least two machine-readable contact methods: a mailto email link, a tel phone link, or a simple form.
In the AI Visibility Fix: 3 steps
!
Clear primary action13/25 pts

The only next step is a generic contact option. For a private equity intelligence and consulting, users expect to book a call or request a quote.

Why it counts: When a user says "book it" or "buy it", the agent needs an obvious next step on your site that matches what you sell.

Make the main next step for a private equity intelligence and consulting obvious: book a call or request a quote.
In the AI Visibility Fix: 3 steps
!
Self-serve completion8/20 pts

Nothing can be completed online: every path ends in a form or a phone call.

Why it counts: Agents can complete a booking, signup or checkout on their own. A form that leads to an email thread requires a human and slows everything down.

Let customers (and their agents) complete the main action online.
In the AI Visibility Fix: 2 steps
!
Forms agents can fill5/10 pts

42 form fields have no label.

Why it counts: Agents fill forms by reading labels. Unlabeled fields and CAPTCHAs stop them. CAPTCHAs also stop spam, so this is a tradeoff, not a rule.

Label every form field and consider invisible spam protection.
In the AI Visibility Fix: 3 steps
·
Hours and location

Not applicable for an online business.

Why it counts: "Is it open now?" and "How far is it?" are the first questions for any place people visit.

×
Machine-executable actions0/10 pts

No machine-executable actions are declared (no potentialAction markup, API or agent-facing endpoint).

Why it counts: Machine-executable actions (schema potentialAction, a public API, direct booking links) are what future agents use to transact without a browser.

Declare your key actions for machines.

Clear differentiation30/30 pts

AI understands what sets you apart: Uses quantitative methods and AI systems applied to private markets investing and operations..

  • Based on: META DESCRIPTION: Quantitative methods and AI systems applied to private markets investing and operations.(homepage)

Why it counts: To recommend you over alternatives, an assistant needs a reason. Generic claims ("quality service", "passionate team") give it nothing to say.

×
Concrete, comparable facts0/20 pts

No concrete, quotable facts (years, clients, ratings, results) were found.

Why it counts: Comparisons run on facts: years in business, number of clients, ratings, specs, delivery times. Numbers are easy for AI to quote and compare.

Add 3 to 5 concrete facts customers care about.

Clear service area0/20 pts

AI can't tell where you operate.

Why it counts: Location is one of the first filters an assistant applies. If it can't tell where you operate, it won't suggest you.

State your service area explicitly: city, neighborhoods or regions.

Common questions are answered3/30 pts

AI couldn't answer 6 basic questions about you, including: "What are the fees or pricing models for the services?", "Which regions or markets does Operand serve?" and "What specific deliverables are included in a due diligence engagement?".

  • What are the fees or pricing models for the services?: Clients need cost information to evaluate affordability.
  • Which regions or markets does Operand serve?: Geographic coverage affects relevance for potential clients.
  • What specific deliverables are included in a due diligence engagement?: Clients need to understand the scope of work.
  • How does Operand’s AI and quantitative approach differ from traditional consulting?: Differentiation influences client decision-making.

Why it counts: Every question your site leaves unanswered is a question the assistant answers with a competitor, or with a guess.

Answer the questions AI couldn't, in an FAQ section with FAQPage markup.
