Frequently asked questions
Everything about the free scan, the score and the Agent Test — in plain language.
What does the free scan actually check?
The scan fetches up to ~16 public URLs of your site (homepage, llms.txt, robots.txt, sitemap.xml and common pages like /about, /pricing, /faq) and runs 25+ checks across seven categories: agent discovery, crawlability, sitemap and structure, content clarity, docs/API readiness, trust signals, and risk and compliance. The result is a 0-100 Agent Readiness Score with a full pass/fail diagnosis.
Is the scan really free? What's the catch?
Yes — the scan is free, requires no signup and takes under a minute. If you want more, we offer a paid Agent Test where a real browsing agent attempts real tasks on your site.
What is llms.txt and why does it matter?
llms.txt is a plain-text Markdown file at the root of your site (like robots.txt, but for AI). It gives LLMs and agents a concise, machine-readable map of your most important pages and a summary of what you do. Sites with a good llms.txt are easier for ChatGPT Search, Claude, Perplexity and browser agents to understand and cite correctly.
Do you crawl my whole website or execute JavaScript?
No. We fetch a small, fixed set of public URLs (max ~16), read the raw HTML and text, and never execute JavaScript, set cookies or log in. The scan sees your site exactly the way a text-reading agent does.
What is a good Agent Readiness Score?
Scores of 81-100 mean your site is Agent Ready; 61-80 is Mostly Agent Ready; 31-60 Partially Agent Ready; 30 or below means agents will struggle badly. The average across all scanned sites is currently around 58, so anything above 80 puts you clearly ahead.
My score is low — what should I fix first?
Request the free email report from your report page. It contains every failed check ranked by score impact, with concrete step-by-step fixes and effort estimates. The biggest quick wins are usually llms.txt, robots.txt, a sitemap and server-rendered content.
What is the Agent Test and how is it different from the scan?
The free scan answers 'Can agents read your site?'. The Agent Test is an Agent Usability Audit — it answers 'Can agents actually use it?'. Autonomous agents attempt real tasks (sign up, book a demo, complete checkout) with multiple attempts, screen recordings, failure traces and a prioritized fix roadmap. Quick Test starts at $99; Full Agent Audit is $349.
Will a better score guarantee that ChatGPT recommends my site?
No — and be wary of anyone who promises that. The score measures whether your site is easy for agents to discover, read and use. That improves your chances of being understood and cited correctly, but no one can guarantee rankings in AI systems.
How often should I re-scan my site?
Re-scan after every fix you ship, and roughly once a month otherwise. Agent ecosystems evolve quickly, and reports are kept at a permanent URL so you can track your progress over time.
Can you implement the fixes for me?
Yes. Beyond the free report we offer an Agent Readiness Audit (deep manual review, from $2,500) and an Implementation Sprint where we ship the fixes together with your team. Get in touch via the contact page.
