# Xona AEO — make your website visible to AI > Xona AEO makes your existing website readable to AI assistants from the network edge — no rebuild, no developer, free to start. Source: https://xonark.com/xona-aeo/ Xona AEO · ChatGPT · Perplexity · Google AI # Patients ask AI for a dentist now. Is your website invisible to it? AI assistants recommend local practices every day — by reading websites. If yours can’t be read, you’re easy to skip — and a readable competitor isn’t. Xona AEO fixes that from the network edge: no rebuild, no developer, and your site never changes for human visitors. [Run the free scan →](https://aeo.xonark.com/) [How it works](#how-it-works) No signup. No redesign. Free on your first domain. What AI sees today - Who you are ✕ Unclear - Services offered ✕ Buried in images - Hours & location ✕ Not machine-readable - How to book ✕ Not found With Xona AEO on - Who you are ✓ Named dental practice, verified details - Services offered ✓ Listed and structured - Hours & location ✓ Exact, consistent - How to book ✓ Clear booking path Leak 1 · patients who never find you ## The patient asked. The answer named someone else. Someone nearby asks ChatGPT or Google AI for “a good dentist near me.” The assistant answers by reading websites — visible text, structure, and facts it can verify. Most clinic sites were built for human eyes only, so there’s little the assistant can verify about you — and you never know the patient existed. 85% of BC dental clinics we scanned were invisible to AI assistants — not named in a single sampled answer for their own city.

Almost all do one of two things — watch what AI says about your brand, or scan your site and hand you a checklist to build yourself. The few that actually change your pages are enterprise tools that show AI crawlers a different version than your patients see. Xona is the one that scans, fixes, and measures — byte-identical for every visitor, no rebuild, for the price of a streaming subscription.

Xona is built for a different job — fixing a local practice’s site safely, byte-identical for everyone, and measuring the result so you can check it yourself. Pricing ## Free to be found.

No. Xona AEO serves your pages byte-identical to every visitor — human or AI crawler. The machine-readable layer is invisible in the browser. Your design, content, and booking flow stay exactly as they are. ### What if something goes wrong? The edge is fail-open by design: if anything in our layer ever errors, your original site is served unchanged. Your website can never be taken down by Xona AEO. ### Do I need a developer or a new website? No rebuild, no CMS access, no developer. Turning it on is one guided DNS change — about the difficulty of forwarding a phone number. Your email and everything else on your domain are untouched. ### Does this guarantee AI assistants will recommend my practice? No one can honestly guarantee that, and you should be suspicious of anyone who does. What Xona AEO does guarantee: your site becomes machine-readable, your scores in independent SEO/AEO checkers improve, and we measure real AI-assistant answers about practices like yours so you can see where you stand. ### Which websites does it work with? Any website — WordPress, Wix, Squarespace, a custom build, or a site your old agency made years ago. Because Xona AEO works at the network edge, in front of your site, it never needs to touch the site itself. ### What if my website is too old or thin to fix? Then enhancing it is the wrong tool, and we will say so. For those cases we rebuild the site completely — a fast, AI-readable practice website for a one-time $599 with free hosting. You preview it free before paying anything. ## See what AI sees — in seconds, free. No signup.
