Answer Format Checker

Counts the structures answer engines quote from: question headings, a summary, lists, tables and an FAQ.

Enter a page. Peach reads its content and counts eight formatting elements, with the heading outline. It makes one request for a public page. It needs JavaScript to run; the explanation below does not.

What this checks, and what it does not

It checks

  • The heading outline (H1 to H3) inside the page's main content.
  • Eight elements: one H1, subheadings, question headings, a summary near the top, lists, tables, an FAQ section and a machine-readable date.
  • The length of the first paragraph and the average paragraph.

It does not

  • It does not judge whether the writing is good or the facts are right.
  • It does not predict citation. These are structures that are easy to quote from, not a ranking formula.
  • It reads the raw HTML. Content added by JavaScript is not counted.

How to read the result

Each element is reported as found or not found, with the count behind it. A page does not need all eight. A pricing page has no use for a TL;DR; a guide usually does.

Question headings matter because the questions people put to an AI engine are questions. A heading that states the question, followed by a paragraph that answers it, is a unit an engine can lift whole.

Frequently asked questions

What counts as a question heading?

A subheading that ends in a question mark, or starts with a question word such as what, how, why, which or can.

What counts as a summary?

A heading or opening text containing "TL;DR", "Key takeaways", "Summary", "In short", "At a glance" or "Quick answer".

Is there a score?

No. The result is a count of elements found out of eight. Turning it into a grade would claim more than was measured.
