Findings with evidence
FixHomepage serves a bot challenge page to automated clients
Our checker got a challenge page instead of your content: Spend Management Software for Receipts & Expenses | Expensify. Findings below describe that page, not your real homepage.
Fix: AI crawlers get the same challenge and cannot read your site. In your CDN or firewall (Cloudflare, Akamai, Imperva), allow verified AI search bots, or lower the bot protection level on public pages.
FixNo llms.txt
GET /llms.txt returned 404.
Fix: Create /llms.txt: a # title, a > one-line summary, then ## sections that list key pages as [name](url). Draft one free at checkaiready.com/llms-txt-generator.
ImproveJSON-LD: 1 block, types Organization, WebSite, WebPage, SoftwareApplication, AggregateRating, Offer, UnitPriceSpecification, FAQPage, Question, Answer, BreadcrumbList, ListItem

og:title: missing og:description: missing og:image: missing
Fix: Add <meta property="og:title" content="..."> <meta property="og:description" content="..."> <meta property="og:image" content="...">. Chat apps and AI tools use these for link previews.

3 render-blocking scripts in <head>: //cdn-4.convertexperiments.com/v1/js/10019937-100413459.js?environment=production
