Agent Initiative

How Scanning Works

The Agent Initiative scanner crawls your website and checks for AI-operability compliance across seven categories:

  • Structured Data & AI Visibility (25%): JSON-LD schemas, Organization markup, FAQPage, BreadcrumbList
  • Markup & Navigation (20%): Semantic HTML, ARIA labels, data attributes, clear headings
  • Forms & Interactions (15%): Labeled inputs, clear validation, and accessible form patterns
  • AI Crawlability (15%): robots.txt, sitemap, AI bot access, llms.txt, AGENTS.md
  • Content Quality & Structure (15%): Content depth, question-based headings, answer-first content, visible FAQs
  • Authentication & Access (5%): AI-accessible authentication methods and access key support
  • API Layer (5%): Discoverable API endpoints and machine-readable responses

Your site needs an overall score of 85% or higher to earn the A.I. Certified badge.
