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.

What is Bippsi?

Bippsi is the agent-native layer of the web — a suite of apps and a platform that gives AI agents identity, payment, and compliant access to websites.

How does Agent Initiative certify a website?

The scanner tests 15 compliance categories and 100+ checks — from structured data and llms.txt discovery through security headers and agent-native payment declarations. Sites scoring 85% or higher receive a public A.I. Certified badge.

Where can AI agents find Bippsi's access policy?

Everything live for agents is at /AGENTS.md, /llms.txt, /agents.json, and /openapi.json.
