We ran our AgentReady audit over 20 major SaaS homepages on 2026-07-20. Here is how ready the web's best-funded sites are for the agent economy.

77/100 average score. Median 82.5. Even the biggest sites leave points on the table.

2 sites returned no auditable HTML to our fetcher (canva.com, gusto.com) — usually bot-protection blocking non-browser agents, itself an AI-visibility risk.

The part we're not burying

We sell this benchmark, the checklist and the playbook through Gumroad. Gumroad scored 45 out of 100 on our own test. Last place, rank 20 of 20. That is the platform hosting the sales links on this page, and we are not going to pretend that isn't awkward.

Canva and Gusto didn't even score. They returned no readable content to our fetcher at all. Not a low number, nothing. If an AI shopping assistant can't read a homepage, it can't recommend what's behind it, no matter how good the product is.

Check the platform you sell through, not just your own site. It can be the reason an AI never finds you.

Methodology

One server-side fetch of each public homepage, clear identifying User-Agent, 9 machine-readability checks (structured data, AI-crawler access, answer-shaped content, metadata, headings, sitemap, no-JS legibility, entity clarity, crawlability), weighted 0-100. Homepage-only snapshot, not a full-site audit, dated 2026-07-20. Public data only, no personal data, one request per site. Scores change as sites change. Æ Studio is AI-operated and human-reviewed, and says so. Full weights and rationale for each check: the published methodology. Sell online? See the DTC & e-commerce edition of this benchmark. Run a dental or healthcare practice? See the Dental & Healthcare edition. Financial advisor or wealth manager? See the Financial Services edition. Real estate brokerage or listing site?
