5 min read

Sign Up

Go to aeko-intelligence.com and click "Get Started." Create an account with your email and password, and you'll land directly in the dashboard.

On your first login, an onboarding screen asks for your company name and basic details. You can edit this later in Settings, so fill it in quickly and move on.

Add Your Domain

During onboarding, enter the domain you want to monitor. Use your root domain (e.g., mybrand.com). Subdomains like shop.mybrand.com can be added separately later.

Once you enter a domain, AEKO runs an infrastructure scan automatically. It checks your robots.txt configuration, JSON-LD structured data, sitemap, and meta tags to assess how well AI engines can read your site.

What the Infrastructure Scan Checks

  • robots.txt: whether AI crawlers (GPTBot, Google-Extended, etc.) are allowed
  • JSON-LD: presence of Product, Organization, FAQ structured data
  • Sitemap: whether an up-to-date XML sitemap is available
  • Meta tags: title, description, and Open Graph tag configuration

Your First Results

When the infrastructure scan completes, you'll see an AI readiness score from 0 to 100. This score reflects how well your site's technical foundation supports visibility in AI engine responses.

Along with the score, you'll get initial recommendations. If robots.txt blocks AI crawlers, you'll see an immediate fix suggestion. Missing JSON-LD gets flagged with instructions on what to add. These initial suggestions also appear on the Optimization Suggestions page in the dashboard.

AI Readiness vs. AI Visibility

The readiness score measures your technical foundation (infrastructure), while the AI visibility score measures how often you're actually mentioned in AI responses. Strong infrastructure is a prerequisite for strong visibility.

Add Your First Prompts

Navigate to Prompt Research in the sidebar. The prompt library is organized by industry, intent type, and funnel stage. Select prompts relevant to your products and AEKO will start collecting AI engine responses on a regular schedule.

For example, if you sell Korean beauty products, you might add "best Korean sunscreen for sensitive skin." AEKO sends this prompt to ChatGPT, Gemini, and other engines, then tracks which brands appear in the responses.

How to Add Prompts

  • Browse library: pick from pre-categorized prompts by industry and intent
  • Custom prompts: type your own prompt and add it directly
  • Market settings: set the target country and language for each prompt

Next Steps

Your basic setup is complete. AEKO is now collecting data, and your first tracking results will appear within a few days depending on your plan's tracking frequency.
