Siteory fetches public HTTP(S) pages on the host you submit. It does not log into your site or ask for passwords. Anonymous previews run SEO and AI-visibility checks only. Active security testing runs only after you sign in. No scan is risk-free: we rate-limit requests and honor robots.txt for User-agent: *.

No. We never ask for CMS, hosting, or admin credentials.

The crawler requests public pages the way a browser would, with User-Agent SiteoryBot/1.0. Anonymous previews fetch fewer pages (about 8, depth 2). A signed-in audit crawls more pages. It does not change your site.

Anyone can run a quick preview without an account and see SEO and AI-visibility scores plus the top 3 issues. That preview never runs Hermes or Shodan. Create an account with a verified email and your first full audit, including security, is free. After that, a $9 or $49 audit starts only after the server confirms payment. Search, GEO, and authority stay Unavailable unless a licensed provider is configured.

For signed-in scans we store the URL, generated issues, and Markdown reports. Raw HTML is used during the crawl and is not stored as its own field. Anonymous previews stay in Redis for about an hour and are not archived. Account email comes from Google or email sign-in.

A quick preview is usually under a minute. A signed-in full audit is often around 15 seconds for small sites and longer when security checks run.

Assistants and answer engines decide what to cite from public pages. The AEO pass looks at things like entities, llms.txt, and citation-ready answers so you can see what those systems can actually read.

Reports and fix prompts are Markdown you paste into Claude, Codex, Cursor, or OpenCode. Siteory is not affiliated with those products.

No card for the quick preview or your first full audit, which is free with a verified account. After that, a single audit is $9 or Pro is $49 a month for ten.
