Definitions, Free / Plus / Business plans, and how to use packs and Edge Signals.
What is the CVI (Centropic Visibility Index)?
The CVI is Centropic's proprietary metric: a 0-100 index with a DD→AA letter grade that summarizes structural readiness (AIO + GEO, with finding penalties). It is the standard for comparing brands — not third-party Domain Authority, not advertising Share of Voice. Methodology.
What is AIO and GEO in Centropic?
Components AIO = AI-Driven Visibility: how much AI models and crawlers understand and “see” your brand. GEO = Generative Engine Optimization: how optimized you are to be cited in generated answers.
GEO is not GIS; AIO is not All-in-One.
Which plan should you choose: Free, Plus or Business?
Free — validate 1 domain (score, findings, pack), no card required.
Plus · 19,99€ excl. tax — startups on their own brand: up to 5 Daily/weekly re-scan
Business · 89,99€ excl. tax — Agencies: everything in Plus + API, white-label, up to 50 client domains, plus everything in Plus. See pricing.
Are AIO and GEO scores live measurements on AIs?
No. CVI / AIO / GEO are always Estimated: structural readiness from the crawl (schema, robots, entity, findings). They are not live rankings on ChatGPT or Claude.
On Plus, the citation monitor adds Measured LLM probes (stochastic samples). If no engine mentions the brand, we show Measured 0% — we do not invent mentions or reuse Estimated (proxy) share.
What do I receive after an analysis?
AIO/GEO score, prioritized findings and pack (llms.txt, JSON-LD, meta, robots). Business also gets white-label export.
Are API and white-label included in Plus?
No. API /api/v1 and white-label (agency brand + MD/HTML export) are reserved for Business. Plus includes Measured SoV, re-scan and full Edge on your own brand.
What is Edge Signals?
Centropic public endpoints
(/e/<token>/llms.txt, signals.json;
on Plus/Business also robots.txt / JSON-LD live, plus Worker/Vercel snippets.
