AI Search & Agent Readiness is Sentry Digital Services' service that makes a website readable, citable and usable by AI assistants such as ChatGPT, Claude and Gemini, and measures every month how those assistants treat the business.

Your buyers now ask AI assistants who to call, and their assistants are starting to book, quote and buy for them. We make sure your website can be read, cited and acted on by those assistants, and we measure what they do with it every month.

## What it does

Opens the site to the AI crawlers that matter, publishes an llms.txt guide, adds structured data for services, prices, locations, reviews and FAQs, tests whether today's browsing agents can complete your key journeys, adds agent-ready actions (WebMCP) to your forms, and reports monthly on crawler reads, assistant recommendations and agent task results.

## Where it creates value

The new front door of the revenue value stream: before a buyer reaches your site, an assistant has often already chosen who to recommend. This service makes sure that choice can include you.

## Why it cannot be ignored

Search has changed three times: engines ranked pages, assistants now answer the question and name the businesses they trust, and agents are starting to finish the job. A website built only for the first wave is invisible to the other two, and an assistant that cannot read your services, prices and proof will recommend someone else.

## What you get

- **Readable** — AI crawlers allowed in, an llms.txt guide published and page structure fixed, so assistants can read what you do.
- **Citable** — Structured data for services, locations, prices, reviews and FAQs, so assistants can state facts about you with confidence.
- **Actionable** — Today's browsing agents tested on your key journeys, blockers fixed, and agent-ready actions (WebMCP) added to your forms as browsers switch it on.
- **Measured monthly** — An Agent Readiness Report: which AI crawlers read which pages, whether assistants recommend you, who they recommend instead, and what agents could complete.

## Key concepts

- **AI crawler** — The automated reader an AI service sends to fetch your pages, such as GPTBot for ChatGPT or ClaudeBot for Claude. If it cannot read your site, the assistant answers from other people's pages instead.
- **llms.txt** — A plain-text guide at the root of your site that tells AI systems what the business does and which pages matter. It gives an assistant a clean summary instead of leaving it to guess from navigation and design.
- **Structured data** — Machine-readable labels in the page (schema.org) that state facts such as your services, prices, locations and reviews. Assistants cite facts they can read with confidence; facts buried in design are easy to miss.
- **WebMCP** — An experimental browser standard from Google and Microsoft that lets a website tell AI agents which actions it offers, such as "request a quote". It is in trial in Chrome and Edge and not yet on by default, so we add it as a no-risk extra and track when browsers switch it on.

## Questions and answers

### What does AI Search & Agent Readiness cost?

Sentry starts with a baseline Agent Readiness Report at a promotional price of £500, refunded in full if you go ahead with the project. The fixes are then priced as a fixed project, a monthly support plan, or as part of a managed Growth Engine engagement, quoted after the baseline.

### Will this improve my Google ranking?

Sentry does not promise that. The aim of AI Search & Agent Readiness is to be found, recommended and used by AI assistants, which is a separate channel from Google rankings.

### What is WebMCP and do I need it?

WebMCP is an experimental browser standard from Google and Microsoft that lets a website tell AI agents which actions it offers, such as requesting a quote. It is in trial in Chrome and Edge and not yet on by default, so Sentry adds it as a no-risk extra and tracks when browsers switch it on.

### Do I need a new website?

No. Most AI search and agent readiness fixes work on an existing website. Sites that Sentry rebuilds in Astro on Cloudflare get them as standard.

### How is AI search and agent readiness measured?

Sentry's monthly Agent Readiness Report shows which AI crawlers read which pages, whether AI assistants recommend the business for its buyers' questions, which competitors they recommend instead, and whether browsing agents can complete the site's key journeys.

### Why does Sentry build on Cloudflare for this?

Cloudflare's AI Crawl Control, available on all plans, shows which AI services read a site and lets the owner allow or block each one, and Cloudflare verifies which bots and agents are genuine. Sentry runs its own AI-visitor log on Cloudflare: in 63 hours from 22 to 25 September 2026 it recorded 769 page reads by 16 AI crawlers on sentrydigitalservices.com, 472 of them verified by Cloudflare.
