5 questions · max 5 pts

Does AI know who you are, what you do, and recommend you in your category?

Q1

When you search your top 3 category prompts in ChatGPT, does your brand appear in the answer?

Test: open chatgpt.com → ask "best [your category] for [your use case]" → is your brand cited?

Q2

Across major AI engines (ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude, Gemini, Google AI Overviews), is your brand cited at greater than 5% share of voice in your core category?

If you don't know — answer "not sure." That's the answer to a different question we'll show you in your report.

Q3

Do at least 50 third-party sources (press, reviews, partnerships, listings) describe your brand the same way?

Test: Google your brand name + "is" — do the top 5 results agree on what you do?

Q4

When AI agents disambiguate your brand from similarly-named entities, do they consistently identify the right one?

Test: ask ChatGPT "tell me about [your brand]" — does it return YOUR product, or someone else's?

Q5

Does your brand appear in the Top 5 in category across Reddit threads, Wikipedia, or recognized industry publications?

Test: search "best [category]" across Reddit, Wikipedia, and your top 3 industry publications — is your brand in the Top 5 in category on each surface?

Technical SEO

7 questions · max 7 pts

Can AI crawlers, agents, and engines reach, read, and trust your site?

Q6

Does your domain carry a complete Organization schema with sameAs links to LinkedIn, Crunchbase, GitHub, and Wikipedia?

Test: paste your homepage into Google's Rich Results Test — does Organization schema include a sameAs array with 3+ authoritative entity links?

Q7

Do your top commercial pages carry validated JSON-LD schema (Article, FAQPage, Organization, BreadcrumbList)?

Test: paste your homepage URL into Google's Rich Results Test — does it detect schema?

Q8

Can the AI search crawlers (OAI-SearchBot, Claude-SearchBot and PerplexityBot) reach your pages, with no robots.txt or firewall block?

Test: open yourdomain.com/robots.txt — none of the three should sit under "Disallow: /". Then check your CDN or WAF bot rules for the same user agents. GPTBot and ClaudeBot only collect training data; blocking them does not remove you from AI answers.

Q9

Does your site render fully without JavaScript (or via SSR) so AI crawlers see content, not blank shells?

Test: in Chrome DevTools, disable JavaScript → reload your homepage → is the content still visible?

Q10

Have you implemented at least one of: Web Bot Auth, A2A Agent Card, or MCP Server Card?

Test: do you have any of these endpoints visible at your /.well-known/ URL?

Q11

Do you publish a skill.md (at /.well-known/skill.md or your site root) declaring your service's capabilities, inputs, and constraints to AI agents?

Test: open yourdomain.com/.well-known/skill.md — does it return a Markdown file opening with name: / description: frontmatter?

Q12

Do you publish /.well-known/agent-permissions.json declaring what AI agents may do on your site — allowed actions, rate limits, and a contact?

Test: open yourdomain.com/.well-known/agent-permissions.json — does it return valid JSON with allowed_interactions and rate_limits?

3

Content

5 questions · max 5 pts

Is your content structured for AI extraction, citation, and ongoing freshness?

Q13

Do your priority content pieces front-load citable claims in the first 35% of the article?

Test: open your top blog post — are the most quotable claims in the first third?

Q14

Is your content distributed across the topic cluster rather than concentrated on 1-3 pages?

Test: in Ahrefs/SEMrush, sort your pages by traffic — what % of total traffic comes from the top 2 pages? Under 50% = yes.

Q15

Do you maintain 7-10 H2/H3 subheadings per long-form piece, with question-format H2s matching real user prompts?

Test: open your top piece — count the H2s. Are 4+ of them phrased as questions?

Q16

Is every data point in your content attributed to a source with a year?

Test: open a recent article — find a stat — is the source named with the year?

Q17

Have you refreshed at least 25% of your top-traffic pages in the last 6 months?

Test: in your CMS, sort top 20 pages by traffic, filter "Updated in last 6 months." Is the count ≥5?

How is the Agent-Ready Score calculated?

The Agent-Ready Score is the share of 17 yes-or-no checks your site passes, scaled to 100. Five checks cover brand, seven cover technical SEO and five cover content, and “No” and “Not sure” both count as zero. A score of 80 or more is Agent-Ready, 60 to 79 is Almost ready, and under 60 is Foundation to build.

LegChecksWhat the checks ask
Brand5Whether AI answers name you, describe you consistently and tell you apart from similar names
Technical SEO7Organization schema and sameAs links, structured data, AI search crawler access, content without JavaScript, agent protocols and capability files
Content5Front-loaded claims, topic coverage, question headings, sourced data and refresh cadence
ScoreBand
80-100Agent-Ready
60-79Almost ready
0-59Foundation to build

Your weakest leg is the one with the lowest share of checks passed; ties go to brand, then technical SEO, then content. The score is a self-assessment, so it is only as accurate as your answers, which is why “Not sure” counts as no.

Frequently asked questions

How do I check if my site is agent-ready?

Answer the 17 checks above and run the test printed under each one: ask ChatGPT about your brand, open your robots.txt, load your homepage with JavaScript turned off, and paste a page into Google’s Rich Results Test. Answer “Not sure” whenever you have not checked, then fix your weakest leg first.

What is a good agent-ready score?

80 or more, which this check rates Agent-Ready. Between 60 and 79, one leg is usually holding the others back; under 60, the foundations need work. Treat the score as a way to prioritize, not a benchmark: it is a self-assessment against 17 checks, not a measure of how often AI engines cite you.

Is agent-readiness the same as AI visibility?

No. Agent-readiness is whether AI agents and crawlers can reach, read and act on your site. AI visibility is whether AI answers mention and cite your brand. A site can be fully agent-ready and still rarely named, because being named also depends on third-party corroboration. The three layers are explained in SEO vs AEO vs agent-readiness.

How is this different from Lighthouse Agentic Browsing?

Lighthouse’s Agentic Browsing category, available from Chrome 150, tests one page in the browser: whether interactive elements have accessible names, whether the layout stays stable, and whether WebMCP tools are registered. Google calls it informational and unbenchmarked, so it reports passes, failures and warnings rather than a score (Chrome for Developers, June 2026). This check covers the whole program, brand and content included, and ends in a 0-100 score. Use both; see our Lighthouse Agentic Browsing guide.
