Audit Is Stuck or Failed
What to do when an audit takes too long or shows an error.
Audit Taking Too Long
A normal audit takes 2–3 minutes. If it's been more than 10 minutes:
- Check the audit status on your Dashboard. "Running" means it's still going — AI platforms can be slow during peak hours.
- If it's been 15+ minutes, refresh the page.
- If the problem continues, try running a new audit with fewer keywords.
Audit Failed
If your audit shows "Failed":
- Wait a minute and try again. The most common cause is a temporary API error from one of the AI platforms.
- Check your keywords. Very long keywords (200+ characters) or special characters can cause issues.
- Check your plan limits. If you've used all your monthly audits, the next one will fail. Upgrade or wait for your limit to reset.
- If it keeps failing, note the error message and contact support.
