Agent readiness refers to how easily AI agents can navigate a website, interpret its information, and carry out permitted tasks. An agent-ready website makes its content and controls clear, predictable and easy for machines to process.
It typically:
- uses semantic HTML and accurate structured data;
- provides clearly labelled links, buttons and forms;
- keeps information consistent across webpages and APIs; and
- uses appropriate permissions and respects users' privacy choices.
For example, an agent-ready website may allow an AI assistant to compare product features, pricing plans, and integrations.
