Escalated — critical findings could block visibility
Takeaways — what could block visibility
2 criticalChatGPT cannot retrieve greyst.com on demand
Medium effortWhen buyers or researchers paste https://greyst.com/ into ChatGPT, the assistant returns no site content — meaning Greyst is invisible in the fastest-growing AI research channel for industrial sourcing decisions.
9% of homepage links are uncrawlable (href='#' or JS-only)
Low effort8 of 85 links — likely navigation or CTA elements — cannot be followed by crawlers or AI agents, meaning any pages reachable only through those links may be undiscovered and unindexed.
Technical scorecard
10 pass · 3 flagged across 13 deterministic checks. Technical foundation looks clean on the quick check. Engagement value will be in growth/content/keyword strategy rather than fixing broken infrastructure.
