When someone asks ChatGPT, Claude, or Perplexity \"who's a good [your industry] near me?\"<\/em> \u2014 what does the AI say about your site? If it can't read you clearly, it doesn't give you a bad review. It just doesn't mention you. You never see the miss.<\/p>\n\n

Caidance \u2014 AI-Readiness Score<\/strong> scans your active WordPress site for the signals AI search and AI agents look for, gives you a 0\u201360 score with a clear band (Starter \/ Builder \/ Operator \/ Leader), and tells you in plain English the top three things to fix first.<\/p>\n\n

It runs entirely on your site. No account required, no data sent anywhere, no external API calls.<\/p>\n\n

What gets checked<\/h4>\n\n

Ten local checks run against your site:<\/p>\n\n

    \n
  1. llms.txt<\/strong> \u2014 the file AI agents check first<\/li>\n
  2. Sitemap declared in robots.txt<\/strong> \u2014 so AI can find your content<\/li>\n
  3. Organization schema<\/strong> \u2014 so AI knows who you are<\/li>\n
  4. WebSite schema with SearchAction<\/strong> \u2014 so AI can map your site<\/li>\n
  5. FAQPage schema<\/strong> \u2014 direct answers AI can cite<\/li>\n
  6. Article schema on posts<\/strong> \u2014 so blog content gets surfaced<\/li>\n
  7. Author \/ Person schema<\/strong> \u2014 for E-E-A-T signals<\/li>\n
  8. Open Graph + Twitter cards<\/strong> \u2014 for AI preview generation<\/li>\n
  9. Canonical tags<\/strong> \u2014 to prevent duplicate-content confusion<\/li>\n
  10. AI crawler access<\/strong> \u2014 does robots.txt allow GPTBot, ClaudeBot, PerplexityBot, OAI-SearchBot, and Google-Extended? (Toggleable.)<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n

    Each check returns a clear pass \/ partial \/ fail with a plain-English explanation. No jargon, no false alarms.<\/p>\n\n

    Industry-aware fix list<\/h4>\n\n

    Pick your industry from 11 options \u2014 Financial Services, Healthcare, Legal, Home Services, Nonprofit, Professional Services, Manufacturing, eCommerce, SaaS, Education, Local Retail & Restaurants \u2014 and the fix recommendations are tailored. The fix you see is the fix that actually matters in your industry.<\/p>\n\n
