Category visibility is the real GEO test: when a user asks an AI a brand-free question that should surface UnsecuredAPIKeys-com/UnsecuredAPIKeys.Lite, does the AI actually recommend you — or your competitors? Objective checks verify the metadata signals AI engines weight first. Self-mention check detects whether AI even knows you exist by name.
