Action plan is what to do next — copy-pasteable changes prioritized by impact. Category visibility is the real GEO test: when a user asks an AI a brand-free question that should surface chocoford/ExcalidrawZ, 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.

3 prioritized changes generated by gemini-2.5-flash. Mark items done after you ship the fix.
- highreadme#1Reposition README's opening paragraph to explicitly state core purpose and differentiate
Why:
CURRENTExcalidraw is an excellent drawing tool. ExcalidrawZ keeps the familiar Excalidraw canvas, then adds native file management, iCloud sync, history, export, AI assistance, MCP integration, and Apple-platform interaction details around it.
COPY-PASTE FIXExcalidrawZ is a native, full-featured Excalidraw client specifically designed for macOS, iPadOS, and iOS. It brings the familiar Excalidraw canvas to Apple platforms, enhancing it with native file management, iCloud sync, version history, and platform-specific interactions, without focusing on Zotero or Zettelkasten-style knowledge management.
- mediumtopics#2Expand topics to improve category visibility for drawing/sketching tools
Why:
CURRENTdrawing, ios, macos, productivity, swiftui
COPY-PASTE FIXdrawing, ios, macos, swiftui, sketching, digital-whiteboard, note-taking, vector-graphics
- lowcomparison#3Add a comparison section to explicitly differentiate from common misconceptions
Why:
COPY-PASTE FIX## Comparison to other tools ExcalidrawZ focuses on providing a native Excalidraw experience on Apple platforms with robust file management and iCloud sync. Unlike some tools that integrate with Zotero or offer Zettelkasten-style knowledge management, ExcalidrawZ prioritizes a pure drawing and sketching workflow within the Excalidraw ecosystem.
