TL;DR
MeshScore is Blue Ninja Systems' diagnostic readiness score for how prepared a site is to be found, understood, trusted, and cited by AI answer systems. It helps identify gaps in technical discoverability, structured data, answer structure, Support Hub readiness, proof signals, and monitorability. MeshScore is diagnostic, not a guarantee of rankings or citations.
MeshScore helps decide what to fix first before a team invests in more publishing, automation, or AI search monitoring.
