GetCited vs HubSpot AEO Grader

HubSpot’s AEO Grader is an excellent starting point — use it to get your first read on AI visibility. But a snapshot is not a strategy. When you are ready to move from understanding the problem to solving it, GetCited provides the monitoring, the fixes, the content, and the editorial placement to make progress.

Understanding HubSpot AEO Grader

HubSpot’s AEO Grader represents something important for the category: one of the largest marketing platforms in the world validating that AI visibility matters. The tool is completely free, with no limits, and provides a five-dimension analysis across Sentiment, Presence, Recognition, Share of Voice, and Position.

The brand trust that HubSpot brings is significant. For marketing teams that are just beginning to explore AEO, the HubSpot Grader provides an accessible entry point with exportable reports that can help make the case internally for investing in AI visibility.

The limitation is structural: this is a one-time snapshot tool, not an ongoing monitoring platform. It checks three AI engines at a single point in time. There are no actionable fixes, no content tools, no schema generators, and no way to track progress over time. It is a starting point, not a destination.
