What we measured Main content starts at 62% of HTML

The main content appears late in the HTML document. AI agents may give more weight to content that appears early.

How to implement

Restructure your HTML so that <main> or <article> content appears before sidebars and supplementary content.

Paste into a coding agent to make the fix

What we measured No Markdown for Agents support detected

Your site doesn't support Markdown for Agents. This Cloudflare standard lets AI agents request content in markdown format, reducing token usage by ~80%.

How to implement

Implement one or more: (1) Respond to Accept: text/markdown with markdown content. (2) Serve .md URLs (e.g., /page.md). (3) Add <link rel="alternate" type="text/markdown"> tags. (4) Add Link HTTP headers for markdown discovery.

Paste into a coding agent to make the fix

What we measured Content ratio: 2.8% (3926 content chars / 139176 HTML bytes)

Your page has a low ratio of actual content to total HTML. Much of the page weight is markup, scripts, or styles rather than content.

How to implement

Move CSS to external stylesheets, remove inline styles, minimize JavaScript, and ensure the HTML focuses on content structure.

Paste into a coding agent to make the fix

What we measured No llms.txt found

Your site doesn't have an llms.txt file. This is the emerging standard for helping AI agents understand your site structure.

How to implement

Create an /llms.txt file following the llmstxt.org specification. Include a site description and links to your key pages.

Paste into a coding agent to make the fix

What we measured 2/3 OG tags present

Missing or incomplete Open Graph tags. OG tags help AI agents (and social platforms) understand your page title, description, and image.

How to implement

Add og:title, og:description, and og:image meta tags to your page's <head>.

Paste into a coding agent to make the fix

What we measured 21/429 elements with inline styles (4.9%)

Many elements have inline style attributes. These add noise for AI agents extracting content.

How to implement

Move all inline styles to CSS classes in your stylesheet. Use utility CSS frameworks like Tailwind if you need many unique styles.

Use our API to get this programmatically (coming soon)

This JSON is for internal use — unlike the Markdown and llms.txt files, it's not meant to be uploaded to your site. Save it as a baseline to track your score over time, share it with your dev team, or integrate it into your CI/CD pipeline.

Want a second opinion?

Cloudflare runs a free scanner too, and it asks a different question. It scores what your site publishes for agents to call — MCP server cards, Agent Skills, API catalogs, DNS records. We score whether an agent can reach, read and understand your content. A site can do well on one and poorly on the other, so expect two different numbers: they are answers to two different questions, and both are worth knowing.
