infoWhat this is

AI Ready Vancouverin one paragraph

AI Ready Vancouver is a free, independent project that checks whether Vancouver businesses can be found, understood, and recommended by AI assistants like ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, and Perplexity, not just traditional search engines. We run the same real checks on your site and send you a plain-English report.

In plain terms:

Not reachable by AI search

That's the same 57.5% / 42.5% split from the top of this page. A great SEO score doesn't change whether AI search can actually read the page.

checklistWhat's actually being measured

These are real checksNot something we invented

Search engines have checked page speed and usability for years. In 2026 a new question got added: can an AI actually use this page? We call how many of these four checks you pass your AI Ready Score, counted like a home inspection, not a percentage.

description

A summary AI can read

A small file telling AI tools what your business does, instead of making them guess.

label

Buttons a computer can find

Clear labels behind the scenes, so your phone number and hours are easy to find.

push_pin

A page that doesn't jump around

Content that stays put, so nothing confuses a computer reading it.

event_available

Booking without the clicking

A newer way for an AI to get a quote or book you directly.

helpFAQ

Questionsyou might be asking

Why are you doing this?

My partner and I are tech professionals, and the best way we know to actually understand a shift like this is to do the work, not just read about it. Running these checks for free, on real businesses instead of theory, is how we're learning.

Is this actually free?

Yes, no card, no catch. This project is brand new, so right now every check is free while we're still getting it off the ground. That might not last forever, but it will for you.

Do I have to hire you to fix anything?

No. The report is yours to use with us, someone else, or nobody at all.

Is this the same as SEO?

Related, but different. SEO helps Google rank your page. This checks something newer: whether an AI assistant reading your page can actually understand it well enough to recommend you. A site can have perfect SEO and still fail every one of these checks, that's the real example above.

Is AI Ready Vancouver an AI services company?

No. It's a free, independent project run by two Vancouver tech professionals. We run one free check and send a plain-English report, and we don't sell consulting, automation, or custom AI builds. If you're weighing a provider, our guide to AI services in Vancouver covers the types, pricing, and what to ask.
