What is an AI Readiness Score?

An AI Readiness Score is a measure from 0 to 100 that indicates how well your website can be read, understood, and recommended by AI agents like ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude, and Google AI Overviews. It evaluates 48 specific checks across 5 categories: Access & Crawlability, Readability & Structure, Identity & Trust, Integration & Discovery, and Answerability & Content.

How does Score for AI work?

Score for AI fetches your website and analyzes it across 48 checks in 5 categories. We examine your robots.txt for AI bot access, check structured data and Schema.org markup, evaluate content depth and readability, verify meta tags and OpenGraph data, and test for AI-specific protocols like agent.json and MCP endpoints. Results are delivered in about 30 seconds.

Why should I care about AI readiness?

AI agents are rapidly becoming a primary way people find information. Google AI Overviews have reduced organic click-through rates by up to 61%. Gartner predicts traditional search volume will drop 25% by 2026. If AI agents cannot properly read and understand your website, you risk becoming invisible to a growing share of potential customers.

What AI agents does this cover?

Score for AI checks compatibility with all major AI agents including ChatGPT (GPTBot), Claude (ClaudeBot), Google AI Overviews (Google-Extended), Perplexity (PerplexityBot), Amazon (Amazonbot), Apple Intelligence (Applebot-Extended), Meta AI (meta-externalagent), Microsoft Copilot, and Common Crawl (CCBot).

How is the score calculated?

The score is calculated by running 48 individual checks across 5 weighted categories. Each check is pass/fail and contributes to its category score. The final score is a weighted average: Access & Crawlability, Readability & Structure, Identity & Trust, Integration & Discovery, and Answerability & Content. The maximum score is 100.

What's included in the free scan vs paid report?

The free scan gives you your overall AI readiness score plus a category-level breakdown showing where you stand in each of the 5 areas. The paid Full Report ($29) provides detailed check-by-check results, specific fix recommendations with code examples, priority ranking of issues, and competitive benchmarking against your industry.

How can I improve my AI readiness score?

Common improvements include: allowing AI bots in your robots.txt, adding Schema.org structured data, implementing proper meta tags and OpenGraph markup, creating a sitemap.xml, adding an RSS feed, writing substantial and well-structured content with proper heading hierarchy, and implementing AI-specific protocols like .well-known/agent.json.

How often should I scan my website?

We recommend scanning after any major website update, content change, or CMS migration. For active websites, a monthly scan helps ensure your AI readiness stays high as search engines and AI agents evolve their requirements. The AI landscape changes rapidly, so regular monitoring is important.
