How AI sees it: invisible · preview · 22 critical issues blocking AI agents.
AISO fixMake /.well-known/agent.json valid JSON. Validate locally with `jq . < agent.json` and ensure your CDN serves it as application/json.
AISO fixBuild cited-by signals: domain authority (OpenPageRank), placements on high-DR publications (TechCrunch, ProductHunt, etc), patent/news mentions. Authority is the #1 driver of LLM citations.
AISO fixMaintain readable structure + recency: clear headings/lists for chunkability, recent updated-at dates, no stale fact decay, answer-extractable formatting (Q→A, def→explanation).
AISO fixCite at least one .edu/.gov, Wikipedia, IETF/W3C spec, or tier-1 publication near your flagship claims.
AISO fixWrap the FAQ with a FAQPage JSON-LD block so AI engines can lift the Q/A pairs verbatim.
AISO fixEnsure links have discernible text See https://dequeuniversity.com/rules/axe/4.11/link-name?application=axeAPI
AISO fixStart llms.txt with '# <Project name>' as the H1 — per llmstxt.org this is the only required field.
AISO fixAdd headings like '<Product> vs <Competitor>' to comparison content
AISO fixAdd a /best-X-alternatives or /you-vs-competitor page
AISO fixOpen the homepage with '<Brand> is a <category> that <differentiator>' — this is the single biggest lever for AI citability.
AISO fixAdd an HTML <table> with <th>feature</th>/<th>price</th> columns
AISO fixAdd a Person JSON-LD entry for founder/principal author with sameAs links.
AISO fixAdd a glossary page with 5+ defined terms
AISO fixDefine key terms explicitly: '**AI Agent** is a software program that...'
AISO fixPublish JSON-LD with Organization/Service nodes including `audience` and `aggregateRating` properties so LLMs can extract market-fit signals.
AISO fixPublish JSON-LD blocks (`<script type="application/ld+json">`) describing your offer/service, address, and contact methods. Without structured data, delegate agents can't transact on your behalf.
AISO fixPublish Organization JSON-LD with name + url + sameAs for entity association.
AISO fixAdd Pros/Cons sections to comparison and review pages
AISO fixAdd <script type='application/ld+json'> with @type:Organization including name, url, logo, and sameAs (≥3 social profiles).
AISO fixIncrease the sampled-page count to evaluate internal connectivity
AISO fixEvery % / 'X customers' / stat deserves an inline citation link to the origin study or publication.
AISO fixValidate the response from your manifest URL. The body must parse as JSON. Re-serve with `Content-Type: application/json`.
AISO fixComparative pages can over-index on the competitor name. Rebalance copy so your own brand is the dominant entity per section.
AISO fixReturn valid JSON at /.well-known/agent.json describing your agent or MCP capabilities.
AISO fixReturn valid JSON at /ai/faq.json with a faqs array of {question, answer, source_url} objects.
AISO fixReturn valid JSON at /ai/service.json shaped like a schema.org Service (@type, name, provider).
AISO fixReturn valid JSON at /ai/summary.json with at least name and description fields. Validate with a JSON linter.
AISO fixAdd `alt="..."` to every <img>. Use `alt=""` for purely decorative images. Missing alt is a baseline accessibility + AI-indexing failure.
AISO fixBreak paragraphs above 400 words with subheadings, lists, or bolded facts
AISO fixPrioritize: Frequently Asked Questions about AI Agent Tooling; AI Agent Tooling Glossary: Key Terms Explained.

AISO fixbridge fetch failed: fetch failed
AISO fixLift the lowest-scoring dimensions in `composite_inputs` first; citation-crawl and agent-readiness move the headline metric the most.
AISO fixEmit Article JSON-LD with headline, author, datePublished, dateModified.
AISO fixUse exactly one H1, ensure the first H2 precedes any H3, and give every H2 a clear topic label (3+ words).
AISO fixMake WHO you are unambiguous: Organization JSON-LD with sameAs links, agent-discovery files (llms.txt + .well-known manifests), structured contact + offer data so delegate agents can transact.
AISO fiximg-src 'self' https://trusted.example; (replace wildcards with explicit hosts)
AISO fixSurface at least 2 contact channels on the homepage: a visible phone number, physical address, contact <form>, or mailto: link. AI rankers correlate contact accessibility with trustworthiness.
AISO fixPublish an About page listing founders, team, and credentials. AI engines heavily weight provenance.
AISO fixAdd a 2–4 sentence paragraph immediately after the H1 summarising what the product is and who it serves.
AISO fixOpen with 'We are ...' / 'Our mission is ...' / 'This is ...' — AI models need explicit entity framing.
AISO fixAdd a TL;DR sentence or '<Brand> is a <category> that …' lead at the top
AISO fixPublish at least one of /editorial-standards, /editorial-policy, /fact-checking, /corrections. LLM rankers down-weight content from sources without explicit editorial transparency.
AISO fixAdd FAQPage schema with 5-10 high-frequency questions for AI-search retrieval.
AISO fixAdd <time datetime='YYYY-MM-DD'>Updated ...</time> or article:modified_time meta, or expose dateModified in Article JSON-LD.
AISO fixAim for 134-167 words per h2-bounded section — zubair's empirical citability optimum. Long sections get truncated; short ones don't carry enough signal.
AISO fixRestructure paragraphs to 30-120 words each. RAG retrievers favour self-contained spans of this size.
AISO fixAdd 'according to', 'source:', or numeric footnote references. LLMs cite content that points at primary sources.
AISO fixDelay or remove modal and overlay patterns on indexable pages, especially above-the-fold newsletter or signup gates.
AISO fixRemove agent-hostile signals: prompt-injection patterns, broken links, deceptive cloaking, robots conflicts. Agents discount hosts that look unsafe to act on.
AISO fixAdd statistical claims to drive AI-citation rate +30-40% (Aggarwal Princeton GEO 2024).
AISO fixstyle-src 'self' 'nonce-<random>'; (drop 'unsafe-inline')
AISO fixFix crawl access first: ensure 200 OK on homepage + sitemap, valid JSON-LD, llms.txt published, SSR-rendered content, and a non-blocking CSP. Without this layer agents can't read the site.
AISO fixAim for 3-11 words of context-bearing description per non-decorative image.
AISO fixAdd explicit entity surfaces: about or company page, team or founder page, pricing page, docs or API page.
AISO fixImprove the underlying dimensions that drive chatgpt citations: crawlability, structure, schema, freshness, entity clarity, and trust.
AISO fixImprove the underlying dimensions that drive claude citations: crawlability, structure, schema, freshness, entity clarity, and trust.
AISO fixAdd a unique <title>, meta description, and canonical URL. Add Open Graph/Twitter tags for share and citation previews.
AISO fixImprove the underlying dimensions that drive google_ai citations: crawlability, structure, schema, freshness, entity clarity, and trust.
AISO fixAdd ItemList JSON-LD schema to comparison pages
AISO fixWrap term/definition pairs in <dl><dt>term</dt><dd>def</dd></dl> markup
AISO fixSend `Permissions-Policy` (formerly Feature-Policy) explicitly declaring which browser features (camera, microphone, geolocation, payment, …) the site uses. Default-deny posture: `camera=(), microphone=(), geolocation=()`.
AISO fixAdd author / contributor profile pages and link them from the homepage (e.g. <a href="/author/jane">). LLMs use these to ground claims to a named expert.
AISO fixAdd a Person JSON-LD block with `name` and `jobTitle` for the founder / editor-in-chief / lead author. Anchors authorship to a named human, which LLMs use for credibility ranking.
AISO fixConfigure TINYFISH_API_KEY and BRAVE_SEARCH_API_KEY to cross-check rendered fetchability and search-index visibility.
AISO fixAdd 'founder': [{ @type: Person, name: ... }] to the Organization schema.
AISO fixWe will retry on the next scan. No action needed on your side.
AISO fixImprove the underlying dimensions that drive perplexity citations: crawlability, structure, schema, freshness, entity clarity, and trust.
AISO fixProvide business_name + area in ScanContext.agntBridge so the bridge can call this lane.
AISO fixTry rescanning after the cache expires, or check SHERLOCK_API_KEY validity in server logs.
AISO fixIf you launch localised variants (e.g. /es, /de, fr.example.com), add `<link rel="alternate" hreflang="...">` tags pointing at each variant plus `x-default`.
AISO fixProvide social_links in ScanContext.agntBridge so the bridge can call this lane.
AISO fixRun Template Audit, Full Site, or Deep Investigation mode to compare key templates across the site.
AISO fixPages about prices, versions, launches, or changing data should expose a clear last-updated date and refresh cadence.
Deterministic extraction from stored page context: identity, offers, actions, files, trust, and evidence.
No grounded description found.
No structured offer or price evidence found.
No booking, buying, contact, quote, or API path found.
No llms.txt, agents.json, mcp.json, x402.json, profile.json, or offers.json found.
Agents need a stable name, category, and short description before they can explain the page.
Agents cannot recommend, compare, or transact without a grounded offer or price.
Agents need explicit next actions instead of guessing how to engage.
Files such as llms.txt, agents.json, mcp.json, profile.json, and offers.json make the site directly readable.
Paste these into the public agent files your site is missing, then rescan.
