Free Tool for Cannabis Websites
Free AI Visibility Checker for Cannabis Businesses
Enter your website and I’ll check what Google and AI crawlers can access, look for your business in the search and AI results we can measure, and show you up to three things I’d work on first.
Checking your site
elapsed
Some checks depend on live third-party results. If one can’t be verified, we’ll show that instead of guessing.
Want Me to Look at the Whole Site?
The checker reads one page and one question. In a free visibility review I go through your site the way I would for a client and tell you what’s holding it back and what I’d do first.

What the Checker Measures
It runs 18 website readiness checks covering access, indexing, page content, structured data, age gates and crawler rules, plus additional location and menu checks where they apply to the type of business you select. It also checks the Google and AI results available for your question. Some checks may come back as not verified, and a strong readiness result doesn’t guarantee more traffic or sales.
Search and AI results move every day. Treat this as a snapshot and run it again after you fix something.
What the Checker Looks At on a Cannabis Website
A dispensary or brand site can look fine in a browser and still give Google and AI crawlers very little to work with. The checker shows you what they actually get.
- Can crawlers reach your homepage:HTTPS, indexing signals, robots.txt, canonical tag and sitemap
- Does your homepage say who you are:title, meta description, main heading, page sections and structured data
- Which AI crawlers you let in:what your robots.txt says to GPTBot, OAI-SearchBot, ChatGPT-User, ClaudeBot, Claude-SearchBot, PerplexityBot and Google-Extended
- Your age gate:whether an age-verification script sits in front of your content
- Your locations:for a dispensary or delivery service, whether visitors and crawlers can find your locations or delivery areas from the homepage
- Your menu:whether there’s a clear path to it, which menu provider runs it, and whether its products can be read without JavaScript
- Your location and menu links:whether a crawler can follow them from your homepage, or whether they’re blocked, set to noindex or only show up once JavaScript runs
- Your shopping path:whether a shopper can get from your homepage to the menu, a product and an add-to-cart or order button, and where it breaks if it does
- What a phone browser shows:whether your homepage needs JavaScript to show its text, and whether a pop-up other than your age gate covers the first screen
- Firewalls and challenges:whether a security check stops a crawler before it reaches your site
- Whether you show up:your site in live Google results and Google AI Mode for the question you enter, and whether ChatGPT and Google’s AI Overviews cite your domain in the answers we sample
Why Dispensary Sites Often Fail These Checks
Three problems show up a lot on cannabis sites. Many menus load inside an embedded widget, so the HTML a crawler reads has no products in it. Age gates are required, but some are built so nothing loads until a visitor confirms their age. And some sites tell AI crawlers to stay out through a robots.txt rule nobody remembers adding. Each of these can be fixed without weakening your compliance.
What the Results Can and Can’t Tell You
- It starts with your homepage and one search question. For dispensaries and delivery services, it also checks available location and menu links and follows the shopping path as far as it can
- "Not verified" means we couldn’t measure it, so it isn’t counted against you
- There’s no score out of 100. A single number would hide which problems actually matter
- AI answer data is US and English only for now. For Canadian checks, those rows say "Not verified for Canada" instead of borrowing US data. Google results do run for Canada
- A strong readiness result doesn’t guarantee rankings or AI mentions. It means the checks we could complete didn’t find a major readiness problem
Questions
Is the Checker Free?
Yes. There’s no signup, and each visitor can run three new checks a day. Reopening a result you already ran doesn’t use one.
Does It Work for Canadian Dispensaries?
Yes for the site checks and for Google results in Canada. The AI answer data we use only covers the US for now, so those parts show "Not verified for Canada" until Canadian data is available.
Why Doesn’t ChatGPT Mention My Dispensary?
The checker can show whether your site appears in the AI answers we can measure, but it can’t tell you exactly why ChatGPT does or doesn’t mention your business. Blocked crawlers, missing business information and competing websites may be factors. We’ll show you what we could verify and which issues are worth checking first.
What Happens to the Website I Enter?
We read your homepage, robots.txt and sitemap. For dispensaries and delivery services, we also check location and menu links and try to follow one product path. Some checks use a phone browser, but we don’t add anything to a cart or submit forms. We send your domain and question to DataForSEO for search results. Results are kept for 30 days so share links work, then deleted. We don’t store your IP address.
Can It Check All My Dispensary Locations?
Not yet. Each check covers one homepage. If you run several dispensaries, a free visibility review is the better place to start.
