This service answers one question

Did the agreed fixes produce the intended live condition?

It does not reopen the entire audit.

It does not search for every possible new issue.

It does not promise that an outside AI system has recrawled, reconsidered, cited, or recommended the business.

It checks the controllable signals identified in the prior work.

What can be rechecked

The exact items depend on the baseline you provide or the earlier Local AI Referrals work. They may include agreed signals such as:

  • Robots and access instructions
  • Indexing directives
  • Canonicals
  • Redirect destinations
  • Sitemap references
  • Business or entity markup
  • Service-page clarity
  • FAQ or answer content
  • Proof presentation
  • Authority or authorship connections
  • Internal links
  • Page hierarchy
  • CTA or handoff presence
  • Other specific readiness items named in the earlier findings

The scope is confirmed from the prior record. A broad new research project is not added to a $97 verification pass.

The Baseline Comparison Process

1. Receive the prior findings

You provide the earlier audit, recommendation, change list, or baseline material unless the work was completed by Local AI Referrals and remains available to the project.

The reference must be specific enough to show what was supposed to change.

2. Inspect the current live condition

We recheck the agreed URLs and signals that can be observed within scope.

The goal is to verify the live result—not merely confirm that someone says the change was made.

3. Compare before and after

Each agreed item is categorized as:

  • Pass — the intended condition is visible
  • Remaining gap — the issue is still present or only partly resolved
  • Unable to verify — access, platform behavior, missing baseline, or another limitation prevents a reliable conclusion
  • New scope required — the live result reveals implementation work outside the recheck

4. Deliver the next-action summary

You receive a concise record of what passed, what remains, and whether the reasonable next action is to stop, correct a specific item, or scope a deeper review.

What is included

The $97 service includes:

  • Review of the earlier baseline or findings you provide
  • Recheck of the agreed access, entity, page, proof, answer-readiness, or related signals within scope
  • Comparison of current live conditions with the prior reference
  • Concise pass, remaining-gap, unable-to-verify, and next-action summary

Best fit

This service is a strong fit when:

  • Earlier recommendations have already been implemented
  • You have a clear baseline or change list
  • You need verification rather than another audit
  • A developer, writer, owner, or agency completed the fixes
  • You want to know whether the live site matches the intended condition
  • You need a concise record before deciding whether more work is justified

This is not the right service when

Choose another scope when:

  • No earlier baseline or findings exist
  • The website has not been changed yet
  • You need us to implement the fixes
  • You want a broad new audit
  • You want extensive competitor or platform research
  • You expect guaranteed testing across every AI system
  • The site has undergone a major migration that changed the entire baseline
  • Several new problems need diagnosis

For implementation, choose the relevant fixed-price service, the AI Referral Foundation Sprint, or the managed engagement.

What this service does not promise

The recheck does not guarantee:

  • AI citations or recommendations
  • Search rankings
  • Indexing
  • Platform recrawl timing
  • A changed answer from an external AI system
  • Leads, calls, or revenue
  • New implementation work
  • Broad research outside the agreed baseline
  • Verification of facts or systems that cannot be observed with the available access

A live technical or page-level pass means the controllable condition was observed. It does not mean an outside system must respond in a particular way.

What happens after purchase

1. Baseline submission

You send the earlier findings, relevant URLs, and a brief note about what was changed.

2. Scope confirmation

We identify the exact items that can be rechecked under the $97 verification scope.

3. Live comparison

The current site is checked against the prior reference.

4. Concise handoff

You receive the pass, remaining-gap, unable-to-verify, and next-action summary.

Frequently asked questions

Is this a new AI visibility audit?

No. It is a focused comparison against prior findings or a baseline. A new audit requires a different scope.

Do I have to be a previous Local AI Referrals client?

No, provided you can supply a clear earlier audit, recommendation, or change record that makes the verification target specific.

Will you fix anything that still fails?

Implementation is not included. The report will identify the remaining gap and the appropriate next action.

Will you rerun AI prompts?

Only when an agreed external check is explicitly part of the confirmed recheck scope and can be performed meaningfully. The core service is verification of the prior controllable signals, not guaranteed platform-wide AI testing.

How soon should I order the recheck?

Order after the changes are live and caches, deployment processes, or relevant platform updates have had enough time to make the current condition observable. The appropriate timing depends on what was changed.

What if the baseline is too vague?

We will identify the limitation. A vague recommendation such as “improve authority” may not provide a specific, verifiable target and may require a deeper review.

What does a pass prove?

A pass means the agreed live condition was observed at the time of the check. It does not prove rankings, recommendations, future stability, leads, or revenue.

Compare the live site with the work that was supposed to be done.

Verify the condition. Record the remaining gap. Decide whether to stop or take one specific next step.

Verification only. Baseline or prior findings required.
