How to read this score
0–35 · Mostly human35–65 · Mixed signals65–100 · Mostly AI

The score is a fingerprint of automation, not a quality judgment. A high score means the page reads as machine-generated. It doesn't mean the page is bad.

What we saw

The page is a large, programmatically templated price guide: item cards repeat the same "Read more" pattern and the same price list appears twice verbatim. Blurbs like "A McDonald's breakfast sandwich is an easy way to start the morning, but turning it into..." and the slogan-style headings read as LLM-generated with no named author or first-hand detail.

AI authorship documentation guide
## Protecting AI-Assisted Content

To maximise copyright protection for AI-assisted content:

1. **Document human contributions** — Keep records of the prompts used,
   the editorial decisions made, and the human modifications applied.

2. **Edit substantially** — Meaningful human selection, arrangement, and
   creative editing of AI output can establish copyrightable authorship.

3. **Register what you can** — Register works with significant human
   authorship via the US Copyright Office, disclosing AI use as required.

4. **Update your Terms of Service** to address AI-generated content:
   > "Content on this site may be created with AI assistance. We retain
   > rights to the selection, arrangement, and editorial expression of
   > all published content."

High AI content score risks Google Helpful Content penalty

Google's Helpful Content system actively demotes content it classifies as written primarily for search engines rather than humans. A predominantly AI-generated site with low E-E-A-T signals is a candidate for site-wide demotion.

Top findings
  • Strong signalStructure

    Item cards and the dollar-menu price list repeat verbatim, a sign of templated programmatic page generation

    • “Dollar Menu · $3.00 McDonald’s Bacon Caesar McCrispy Price · $7.50 McDonald’s Beverage & Drinks Menu”×2body
    • “Read more”×8body
    Try this

    Deduplicate the price ticker and replace templated card blurbs with item-specific details you verified yourself.

  • Clear signalContent

    Generic LLM-style blurbs with flat sentence rhythm and no named sources or dated price checks

    Evidence
    • “A McDonald's breakfast sandwich is an easy way to start the morning, but turning it into a Breakfast Sandwich Meal gives you a little more than just the”body
    • “Every board. One clean price list.”H2
    Try this

    Rewrite item blurbs with a dated, sourced price note and a specific observation about each item instead of generic framing.

  • Worth notingTone

    Uniform neutral register with no author voice or stakes across sections

    Evidence
    • “Signature items people price-check first.”H2
    Try this

    Add a named editor or a first-hand note on how prices were checked to give the guide a distinct voice.

Sentence rhythmVaried — reads human

Each bar is one sentence of the page, in reading order — taller means longer. Human prose tends to look jagged, mixing short punches with long explanations. Machine drafts tend to flatten into even bars.

Avg words / sentence23.8
Rhythm variation65%
Vocabulary diversity27%
Sentences analysed46

Computed from the body text we crawled, split on punctuation and filtered to prose-length sentences. Rhythm is a heuristic, not a verdict — some human writers are metronomically even, and a good editor smooths a machine draft.

LLM-marker phrases

No common LLM-marker phrases found — none of the stock AI vocabulary we scan for appears in the body text even once.

SEO audit detail
  • Meta tags
    All present
    Why this matters

    Why it matters. Title and description are the two strings Google shows in search results. They decide whether anyone clicks. A canonical tag tells Google which URL is the source of truth when the same content lives at multiple paths.

    Passing looks like. A title, a meta description and a canonical link are all present, with exactly one description tag, placed where Google reads it. Their lengths are shown in the report's search preview.

    Fix. Add the missing tags inside the page head and delete any second description tag. Keep images and iframes below your meta tags, because Google stops reading the head at the first one. Treat the title as a headline you'd want to read in a SERP, not a brand slogan.

  • Heading structure
    1 H1, 5 H2
    Why this matters

    Why it matters. Headings are how crawlers and assistive tech understand a page's outline. One H1 names the page. H2s break it into sections. A missing H1, or several, blurs what the page is about.

    Passing looks like. Exactly one H1, and at least one H2.

    Fix. Replace the missing or duplicate H1 with a single, descriptive heading. Promote section titles to H2. Demote sub-points to H3.

  • Mobile readiness
    Responsive
    Why this matters

    Why it matters. Google indexes the mobile version of a page. Without a responsive viewport, phones render the page zoomed out, which makes it hard to read and use.

    Passing looks like. A viewport meta tag set to width=device-width. The scan reads the HTML and doesn't render the page, so it can't check touch targets or font sizes.

    Fix. Add a viewport meta tag set to width=device-width and initial-scale=1, then audit your largest blocks at mobile widths.

  • Page speed signals
    54 images
    Why this matters

    Why it matters. Response time, page weight and images that load without a reserved size all show up in Core Web Vitals. Slow pages, and layouts that jump as images arrive, cost visitors and rankings.

    Passing looks like. The HTML arrives in under 1.5 s and weighs under 500 KB, the page has fewer than 30 images, and no more than two images lack width and height. These are signals from one HTML fetch, not a PageSpeed Insights measurement.

    Fix. Speed up the server response and trim the HTML. Give every image width and height attributes, or a CSS aspect-ratio, so the layout doesn't jump, and serve compressed images sized to the viewport.

  • Schema markup
    1 schema blocks
    Why this matters

    Why it matters. JSON-LD structured data is how you earn rich results: review stars, FAQ accordions, breadcrumbs, article cards. Skip it and Google has nothing structured to pull from when it builds your SERP card.

    Passing looks like. At least one JSON-LD block is present. The check doesn't validate the block or its types, so test it with Google's Rich Results Test too.

    Fix. Add an application/ld+json script block describing the page. Validate with Google's Rich Results Test before deploying.

  • Broken links
    0/5 broken in sample
    Why this matters

    Why it matters. Broken internal links waste crawl budget, degrade UX, and signal to Google that the site isn't well-maintained. They also cap how deep crawlers reach.

    Passing looks like. Every internal link in the sample loads successfully, after following redirects. Timeouts and network errors count as broken.

    Fix. Use the link list above to spot the broken paths. Either restore the missing pages or update the links to point at live URLs.

  • Image alt text
    All have alt
    Why this matters

    Why it matters. Alt text is what screen readers read aloud, and what Google reads instead of pixels. Skip it and you lose on both fronts.

    Passing looks like. Nearly every image has non-empty alt text. An empty alt="" counts as missing here, even on a decorative image.

    Fix. Audit images in /assets and CMS uploads. Write alts that describe what's in the image, not what it links to.
