What a Chedder audit checks on HOKA
- ·Real AI answers. We run category-specific shopper prompts on ChatGPT and AI search, then report who got recommended and who didn't.
- ·The structured data AI reads first. Schema, JSON-LD, OpenGraph — the metadata wrapper AI engines unwrap before they read the page itself.
- ·External brand signals. Wikipedia, Reddit, review citations — the corroborating voices AI engines quietly lean on when forming a recommendation.
