medium CRR Content is hidden behind JavaScript

8% of content requires JS · 92% of rendered content recovered (rest is placeholder/wrong)

Fix: Server-render or statically generate the main content so a non-JS agent still receives it; make client rendering a progressive enhancement, not the source of truth.

Rendered profile: headless

Issues (7)

✗ robots.txt allows AI bots high impact Blocks: * (all)

Business impact If robots.txt blocks AI crawlers you are invisible to ChatGPT, Claude and Perplexity — they skip you and recommend a competitor instead.

What we measured We read /robots.txt and test it against 16 AI user-agents (GPTBot, ClaudeBot, PerplexityBot, …) for a Disallow that blocks them.

How to fix Allow major AI bots to public content; restrict only private paths (/admin, /api).

Learn how to implement →

User-agent: GPTBot
Allow: /
Disallow: /admin/

Spec: https://platform.openai.com/docs/gptbot

✗ No CAPTCHA wall high impact Detected: recaptcha

Business impact CAPTCHAs stop bots — including the AI agents your customers send to shop or book. Content behind a challenge is unreachable.

What we measured We fingerprint reCAPTCHA, hCaptcha and Cloudflare Turnstile in the page.

How to fix Reserve CAPTCHA for login/checkout flows, never public content pages.

Spec: https://developers.cloudflare.com/turnstile/

~ No content-blocking cookie wall medium impact Consent platform: onetrust (verify it doesn't block content)

Business impact A consent wall that hides content until a click is invisible to agents — they cannot click 'Accept'.

What we measured We fingerprint OneTrust, Cookiebot, Usercentrics and similar managers and flag content-blocking ones.

How to fix Use an overlay banner that leaves content in the DOM, not a blocking interstitial.

Spec: https://gdpr.eu/cookies/

✗ llms.txt present high impact Absent at /llms.txt and /.well-known/llms.txt

Business impact llms.txt is the robots.txt for AI: it tells agents what your site is, what matters, and where to find it. Without it AI guesses — and guessing means inaccurate recommendations and lost visibility.

What we measured We fetch /llms.txt and /.well-known/llms.txt and validate the spec (H1 title + a one-line blockquote summary). We also note /llms-full.txt (your full content as Markdown).

How to fix Create /llms.txt with a short summary + key pages; optionally /llms-full.txt with full content in Markdown.

Learn how to implement →

# Your Site
> One-line description for AI agents.

## Key pages
- /products — catalog
- /pricing — plans
- /docs — documentation

Spec: https://llmstxt.org

~ agents.json discovery low impact Absent (emerging standard)

Business impact agents.json describes what your site can DO for agents (services, endpoints, capabilities) — an emerging discovery standard. Early adopters get native agent integration.

What we measured We check /agents.json and /.well-known/agents.json for a valid configuration.

How to fix Publish /agents.json describing your site's capabilities and actions.

Learn how to implement →

Spec: https://agents-json.org

~ WebMCP endpoint low impact Absent (emerging standard)

Business impact WebMCP lets agents call actions on your site directly (book, buy, query) instead of scraping the DOM. Early adopters get native AI-agent interoperability.

What we measured We check /.well-known/webmcp and /webmcp.json for a valid actions array.

How to fix Add a WebMCP endpoint exposing your key actions to agents.

Learn how to implement →

Spec: https://webmcp.org

~ API documentation low impact No OpenAPI/Swagger found

Business impact Programmatic agents prefer a typed API. An OpenAPI/Swagger spec lets them integrate without scraping.

What we measured We probe /openapi.json, /swagger.json, /api-docs and /.well-known/openapi.json.

How to fix Publish an OpenAPI spec at a well-known path.

How to improve

highReduce unused JavaScripthighest leverage

12743 KiB (59%) of JS goes unused. Code-split, lazy-load below-the-fold scripts, and drop unused dependencies — less JS also lowers CAV Token Cost (TC) and speeds up agent parsing.

highSpeed up main-content render

Main content renders at 5.0s. Preload the hero image/font, remove render-blocking resources, and server-render the main content — SSR also raises CAV Content Recovery Ratio (CRR).

highBreak up long main-thread tasks

Longest task 392 ms (10 long tasks). Split heavy work, defer third-party scripts, and move compute off the main thread.

mediumCut total transfer weight

27.2 MB transferred. Enable Brotli, serve WebP/AVIF images, and defer non-critical resources.

JavaScript coverage

12743 KiB unused of 21769 KiB (59% unused JS) — unused JS inflates Token Cost (TC) and slows the agent's parse.
