## Facts

- Categories: answer engine optimization (AEO), generative engine optimization (GEO), AI search visibility.
- Method: gates cap the score; unresolved [VERIFY] placeholders in live copy also cap the score.
- Measurement: the rubric score is the input metric; AI-answer citations are the outcome metric. No scorecard is delivered without a same-day citation baseline.
- Guarantees: none on citations. OpenAEO guarantees only that the tested technical bar is cleared.
