RCH-1 Can the AI tools that search the web read your site? PASS 8 pt
Why we test this

All 9 search crawlers may fetch content paths.

Your robots.txt tells crawlers what they may read. If it shuts out the search crawler behind an assistant, that assistant cannot cite you.

RCH-2 Does your website let those crawlers in, or does your security turn them away? PASS 12 pt
Why we test this

All 12 search crawlers and user-triggered fetchers receive full content. No interactive challenges on 32 sampled read-only pages.

A firewall or bot rule can turn a crawler away even when robots.txt says yes, or put a challenge page in front of it that it cannot pass. We request pages the way each crawler does and record what comes back.

What's half-done

72% of sampled pages emit a valid, self-consistent canonical. 9 have problems.

A canonical link names the true address of a page. Without one, the same content can read as several competing pages.

RCH-4 Do your page settings let assistants quote you? PASS 3 pt
Why we test this

No noindex, nosnippet, max-snippet:0, noarchive or nocache directive found on the sampled pages.

Page tags and headers that stop a search engine from showing a snippet, or from indexing a page at all, also keep that page out of the AI answers built on the search index.

RED-1 Is your page's text in the page itself, without needing JavaScript? PASS 8 pt
Why we test this

The first response from your server holds 90% of the text a browser shows, on average across 32 pages; 10% of the words are missing until scripts run. The worst template is /class-search.aspx: 0% across 1 pages.

If your text only appears after JavaScript runs, a tool that does not run it sees an empty page. This is the heaviest test in the Index.

What's wrong

0 of 864 sitemap URLs carry a lastmod across 0 distinct dates.

A last-changed date should mean the content changed, not that you deployed. Once it is noise, crawlers stop trusting it.

RED-4 Do your filters and calendars keep a crawler from getting lost? PASS 1 pt

No parameterized URLs appeared in the crawlable sample.

Filters and calendars can generate millions of addresses. A crawler spends its visit there instead of on the pages you care about.

What's wrong

0 of 25 non-HTML resources carry an X-Robots-Tag.

PDFs, images and JSON cannot carry a meta robots tag, so the instruction has to travel in the HTTP header instead.

What's wrong

3 of 10 deliberately invalid URLs returned HTTP 200; 5 sampled pages are thin enough to be not-found templates.

A missing page that answers 200 OK looks like a real page, and a crawler spends its visit on it.

0 of 24 sampled pages have a Markdown copy that matches the page and carries no navigation (looked for at the page address plus .md; no page advertised one).

What's wrong

0% of sampled pages carry one main element, a wrapping article or section, and a nav. 7 exceed 12 divs per semantic element.

Real page parts such as header, main and navigation, instead of one pile of unlabeled boxes. It is good practice for people, and research suggests structure helps a model read a page.

MSR-8 Does your page hold still while it loads? NOT SCORED —
Why we test this

31 of 32 rendered pages shifted by 0.1 or less; the worst shifted 0.18.

An agent that acts from a screenshot clicks where a button was, so a page that moves under it makes it miss.

The cap is 32, a ceiling and not a certainty: a site with fewer reachable pages yields fewer.

Basis public-interest census: a declared bot with a published policy at https://readinessindex.io/bot, honoring robots.txt addressed to AIRBot, reading public pages only. No per-site permission was sought or given.

The hash is the SHA-256 of the full result.json, recorded when the scan finished rather than computed now. The raw evidence behind every line above, every response, cached, is retained and is a median 1.5 MB per site, so it is not served from here. Ask us for it if you want to check a number against the bytes it came from.

Think this is wrong? It might be. Tell us at hello@readinessindex.io and we will look, correct it if it is, and say so publicly either way.

About these numbers. Points are whole numbers everywhere on this page. The arithmetic behind them is not: a test scores its weight times its band divided by four, so a row can earn 1.5 points and print as 2. Scores are computed from the exact figures and rounded once, at the end, never from the rounded rows. The rule is published in the standard.
