Agent readiness

Your next customer is not a person.

AI shopping agents choose products from structured data, not from your homepage design. Most stores are invisible to them. Scan yours and find out in twenty seconds.

The problem

Nothing breaks. You just stop being an option.

There is no error page for this. A store can trade normally for a year while being unreadable to every agent that would have recommended it.

A single line locks the door

Crawler blocks get added during a scraping scare, or arrive as a plugin default, and then nobody revisits them. We check five AI crawlers by name against your real rules, at the site root and on an actual product path.

/robots.txtCrawl access
  • User-agent: *
  • Disallow: /cart
  • User-agent: GPTBot
  • FailDisallow: /
  • User-agent: ClaudeBot
  • PassAllow: /

One line, added by a plugin default years ago, removes the store from every OpenAI surface. Nobody notices, because nothing breaks.

Valid schema is not useful schema

Most stores that have structured data have it in name only: a Product node with an empty SKU, no GTIN and one image. It validates. It cannot be matched against the same product anywhere else, which is the entire job.

/products/harbour-shellProduct schema
  • "@type": "Product",
  • Pass"name": "Harbour Shell Jacket",
  • Pass"offers": { "price": "289.00" },
  • Fail"sku": "",
  • Fail"gtin13": missing,
  • Fail"aggregateRating": missing,
  • Warning"image": [ 1 of 6 ]

A validator passes this. An agent trying to decide whether your jacket is the same jacket it found on three other sites cannot.

The report

Forty checks. Every failure ships with its fix.

Five categories, weighted by what actually blocks a sale. Crawl access and product schema carry the most because they are gating: if a crawler cannot get in, or a page has no structured data, nothing else can be seen.

01Discovery
Can an agent find the machine readable entry points to your store.
02Crawl access
Are AI crawlers allowed in, over a fast and secure connection.
03Product schema
Is each product described in structured data an agent can trust.
04Merchant data
Are returns, shipping and business identity resolvable without a human.
05Content quality
Is there enough substance for an agent to compare and recommend you.

Questions

Before you scan

What does 'agent readiness' mean?
Whether an AI shopping agent can find your store, read your products as structured data rather than prose, and trust your returns and shipping terms enough to recommend you. It is not a score you can talk your way into. Either the crawler is let in and the schema is there, or it is not.
What does the scan actually check?
Forty checks across five categories: discovery files such as llms.txt and agents.md, whether AI crawlers are allowed in by robots.txt, product structured data, machine readable returns and shipping, and content depth. Every check comes back with the evidence we found and the fix, not just a number.
Does the scan change anything on my store?
No. It only reads what is already public: your homepage, robots.txt, sitemap, a sample of product pages and your policy pages. Nothing is installed, no account is created, and nothing on your store is written to.
What does it cost to fix what the scan finds?
The scan and its fixes are free to read and free to implement yourself. If you would rather we did it, done for you implementation is a fixed GBP 300 to 500 depending on platform and catalogue size, agreed before we start.
How long does a scan take?
Usually 15 to 30 seconds. We fetch your homepage, six discovery files, your sitemap and up to five product pages, three requests in flight at a time so we are not hammering your server.
