calculate
calculate_ai_savings
Estimates how much a UK business could save a year by handing admin to AI: a range in pounds from team size, weekly admin hours per person, hourly pay (default the ONS 2025 UK median) and sector exposure (Department for Education ranking), with two or three insights. Partial by design: the free AI audit gives the full breakdown. Free, no key. Docs: https://aeolookup.com/ai-calculators/ai-savings-calculator/
calculate_ai_time_saved
Estimates the hours a week AI could save one person or a team, from the hours spent on seven everyday task types (email, scheduling, quotes and invoices, data entry, customer questions, documents, marketing), using a share per task informed by IPPR and McKinsey research. Returns a range and the task with the biggest saving. Free, no key. Docs: https://aeolookup.com/ai-calculators/ai-time-saved-calculator/
score
score_ai_readiness
Scores how ready a small business is to put AI tools to work, out of 100, from eight yes or no questions (digital records, one customer system, written processes, known repetitive tasks, current AI use, an owner, a clear website, time to bed in), and names the two biggest gaps. Free, no key. Docs: https://aeolookup.com/ai-calculators/ai-readiness-score/
score_answer_readiness
Scores a page out of 100 on 14 published checks: indexable, title and description, one H1, question headings, direct first-sentence answers, structured data, dates, a named author, lists and tables, source links, specific figures, length, declared language and stock AI phrasing. Returns each check's points, what it found and the fix, ordered by points available. Free, no key. Docs: https://aeolookup.com/aeo-tools/answer-readiness-checker/
aeo
run_aeo_audit
Runs all four checks on one address (AI crawler access, structured data, llms.txt, answer readiness) and returns each result plus an overall score: the mean of the crawler, schema and answer-readiness scores. llms.txt is reported but not scored, because the evidence says few systems read it. Free, no key. Docs: https://aeolookup.com/aeo-tools/api/
crawler
check_ai_crawler_access
Checks whether the crawlers behind ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, Google AI Overviews, Copilot and 14 more may read a page: robots.txt rules (RFC 9309), robots meta and X-Robots-Tag directives, and whether the site's firewall refuses each crawler's user agent. Separates search and user crawlers (which decide whether you can be cited) from training crawlers (which do not). Free, no key. Docs: https://aeolookup.com/aeo-tools/ai-crawler-checker/
estimate
estimate_ai_staff_impact
Estimates how much of a team's work AI could take on today, as full-time roles' worth of tasks, from headcount in seven role groups, ordered by the Department for Education's exposure ranking. Measures tasks, not people. Free, no key. Docs: https://aeolookup.com/ai-calculators/will-ai-replace-my-staff/
generate
generate_llms_txt
Drafts an llms.txt for a site: the name and summary from its home page, then its pages from the sitemap grouped by section, with titles and descriptions read from up to 24 pages. Returns the file as text, for a person to edit before publishing. Free, no key. Docs: https://aeolookup.com/aeo-tools/llms-txt-validator/
job
check_job_ai_risk
Rates a UK occupation's exposure to AI (high, medium or low, following the Department for Education's 2023 ranking), the share of its tasks AI can do today and the tasks it reaches first. Free, no key. Docs: https://aeolookup.com/ai-calculators/is-my-job-at-risk-from-ai/
structured
check_structured_data
Extracts every JSON-LD block on a page, lists the schema.org types it describes, flags missing required and recommended properties (Organization, LocalBusiness, Article, FAQPage, Product, Service, Person, BreadcrumbList, Event) and scores entity signals: a named organisation, sameAs links to other profiles, a logo and an @id. Free, no key. Docs: https://aeolookup.com/aeo-tools/schema-checker/
validate
validate_llms_txt
Fetches /llms.txt (or the llms.txt address given), validates it against the llmstxt.org proposal (one H1, optional summary, H2 sections of [name](url): notes links), tests up to eight of its links and reports whether llms-full.txt exists. States the evidence on how little the file is read. Free, no key. Docs: https://aeolookup.com/aeo-tools/llms-txt-validator/

AEO Lookup — questions
Answers built from our own checks of this server.
What can AEO Lookup do?
It exposes 11 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: calculate_ai_savings, calculate_ai_time_saved, check_ai_crawler_access, check_job_ai_risk, check_structured_data, estimate_ai_staff_impact and 5 more. The full list with descriptions is on this page — we take it from the server itself via tools/list, not from a README.
How MCP servers expose tools in the first place →
What is AEO Lookup mostly used for?
Its tools cluster around calculate and score. That is what this server is built to work with — the grouping comes from the actual tool names, not from a category we assigned.
Is AEO Lookup working right now?
We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 91 of 91 checks got a reply (100.0%), average response time 669 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.
How do I connect AEO Lookup?
Copy the ready config from this page. We generate it for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and VS Code, each in the form that client actually reads. It is a remote server, so there is nothing to install — the client connects to the address.
Does AEO Lookup need an API key?
No. AEO Lookup completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 11 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.
How fast is AEO Lookup?
It answers our handshake in 669 ms on average, which is faster than 14% of all working MCP servers we measure. That is on the slow side — worth knowing if the tool sits inside an interactive loop. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.
