In a new era of AI SEO, Prerender.io ensures that your website can be found by all generative and AI search engines, whether that’s ChatGPT, Perplexity, or Claude. AI search optimization starts with understanding how AI crawlers actually behave on your site—and whether they can access it at all.

only 25% can fetch JavaScript but can’t execute, meaning your content may be invisible
The majority of our own signups come from AI platforms. Yours might be too. It’s not enough to only focus on Google for your online discoverability. Optimizing for AI search isn’t optional—it’s a must-do. Yet, most teams aren’t optimizing their websites where it matters most: the access layer.
That’s because major AI crawlers like GPTBot struggle to execute JavaScript. All your hard-earned work, marketing efforts, and revenue-driving pages may be completely invisible in AI search. If AI crawlers can’t access your pages, your customers may not see your site in AI-powered search answers at all.
And unfortunately, this rarely shows up in your dashboards. You often only notice when traffic, signups, and sales are impacted down the line.
With more users shopping directly from AI tools like ChatGPT, your business may need extra support on how to keep up. Prerendering with a solution like Prerender.io does exactly that.
