## What we do

AgentReady helps UK small businesses become readable and usable by AI agents: ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude, Google AI Overviews, and the next generation of agentic tools that book, quote and recommend on behalf of real customers.

Most small business websites are hard for AI agents to read, not because of poor content but because of missing structure: no llms.txt, blocked crawlers, no schema markup, buried contact details. We fix that in about ten minutes.

Our service has three parts:
1. A free AgentReady Score: ten checks run against your site, showing exactly where agents struggle
2. A generated llms.txt: your site's AI operating manual, written automatically from a crawl of your pages and the details you provide
3. A verified directory listing: your business added to the AgentReady Directory with a verified badge and an AgentReady ID

## Services

- **Free score check**: scan any website against the AgentReady 10-point framework, no account required
- **AgentReady full service**: £99/year: llms.txt generated, robots.txt fixed, verified badge, directory listing, personalised action plan
- **llms.txt update**: £30 one-off: re-crawl and regenerate your llms.txt when your services or details change
- **Directory-only renewal**: £30/year: keep your badge and listing active without a fresh file

## The AgentReady 10-point framework

We score against ten checks derived from published guidance by Google, OpenAI, and the llms.txt specification (supported by Anthropic and Perplexity):

1. **llms.txt present**: a plain-text operating manual for AI agents at yoursite.co.uk/llms.txt
2. **Sitemap present**: a machine-readable index of your pages at /sitemap.xml
3. **AI agents can access the site**: robots.txt allows GPTBot, OAI-SearchBot, ClaudeBot, anthropic-ai, Google-Extended, PerplexityBot
4. **Page metadata quality**: descriptive title tag and meta description (not generic, not missing)
5. **Structured data present**: JSON-LD schema, microdata, or Open Graph tags giving agents a typed summary
6. **Actions and contact findable**: email, phone, contact page, address, and booking links accessible without navigation
7. **Site readability**: sufficient readable HTML text; site is not JavaScript-walled
8. **Business identity clear**: H1, Open Graph, and paragraph content that unambiguously identify who you are and what you do
9. **Pricing or rates findable**: at minimum a ballpark or "from" figure so agents can answer price queries
10. **Opening hours clear**: when you are open, accessible to agents without guessing
