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 lightningpixel/modly, 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.
Action plan — copy-paste fixes
3 prioritized changes generated by gemini-2.5-flash. Mark items done after you ship the fix.
- highreadme#1Reposition the README H1 to specify category and core function
Why:
CURRENT# Modly **Local, open source, AI-powered image-to-3D mesh generation.** Turn any photo into a 3D model using open source AI models running entirely on your GPU. Modly is a desktop application for Windows and Linux (macOS coming soon)
COPY-PASTE FIX# Modly: Desktop AI for 3D Model Generation **Modly is a desktop application that generates 3D models from images using local AI, running entirely on your GPU.** Turn any photo into a 3D mesh with this open-source tool for Windows and Linux (macOS coming soon).
- mediumreadme#2Add a 'Why Modly?' or comparison section to the README
Why:
COPY-PASTE FIXAdd a new section to the README, for example: `## Why Choose Modly? Modly stands out from research-focused tools like Instant Mesh or COLMAP by offering a user-friendly desktop application for Windows and Linux. It leverages local, open-source AI models running entirely on your GPU, ensuring privacy and performance without complex command-line setups or cloud dependencies. Its unique extension system also allows for easy integration of new AI models.`
- lowreadme#3Clarify the project's license in the README
Why:
COPY-PASTE FIXAdd a 'License' section to the README, stating: `## License Modly is released under [describe the actual license(s) here, e.g., "a custom license combining Apache 2.0 and MIT terms"]. Please see the [LICENSE file](LICENSE) for full details.`
