Agent-Ready Web
Make sure people, search engines and AI agents can find, understand and do business with you
People increasingly use AI assistants to research suppliers, compare products and services, shortlist businesses, check availability, request quotations, book appointments and make purchases. A website can work perfectly for a human visitor and still be difficult for an AI system to understand or use reliably.
Our Agent-Ready Web services combine modern web engineering, structured data, accessibility, AI discoverability, WebMCP, system integration and ongoing testing, so your website works for people, search engines, AI assistants and AI agents.
What it means
What is an Agent-Ready Website?
An Agent-Ready Website is designed so that AI systems can progressively:
- Discover your business
- Understand what you offer
- Navigate your website reliably
- Identify appropriate actions
- Complete permitted tasks
- Connect those actions to business systems
- Measure whether the customer journey succeeded
It does not mean building a separate website for AI. The objective is to improve your existing website so that it works for people, search engines, AI assistants and AI agents.

How we size it
Page count is only one measure
We assess websites on four measures: content volume, functional complexity, customer journey complexity and integration complexity.
| Classification | Typical characteristics |
|---|---|
| Simple informational | Up to 25 pages, basic information and limited forms |
| Growing commercial | More than 25 important pages, several services, forms, sectors or locations |
| Content-rich | More than 100 pages, products, articles, documentation or resources |
| Functionally complex | Any size of website containing booking, ecommerce, quotation, applications, accounts, search or complex forms |
| Integrated | Website connected with CRM, ERP, payments, inventory, scheduling or other systems |
| Business-critical | Website materially contributes to revenue, leads, customer service or operational delivery |
Commercial importance matters more than page count. A ten-page website generating £5 million of annual sales pipeline deserves more attention than a 500-page website generating almost no commercial interaction.
Not just ecommerce
B2B and B2C websites need different things
B2B websites
Buyers research in depth before contacting a supplier: capabilities, certifications, technical specifications, coverage, documents, requests for quotation and technical or sales meetings. For many B2B businesses the most important conversion is not Buy Now. It is Request a Quote, Talk to an Engineer or Book a Consultation.
The objective: qualified pipeline, not ecommerce.
B2C websites
Customers want an outcome quickly: the right service, prices, availability, postcode coverage, an appointment, a purchase, an order tracked or support requested.
The objective: faster conversion with less customer effort.
Start with the right question
What does your customer come to your website to achieve?
Then ask whether a person, a search engine and an AI agent can all successfully support that outcome. That decides where Agent-Ready Web investment creates value: protecting against digital, accessibility, visibility and operational risk; enhancing by cutting customer effort, administration and journey friction; and creating additional enquiries, conversion and revenue.
