# Is your store ready for AI shoppers?

ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity and Google's AI answers are starting to recommend products. See in 10 seconds whether they can find, read and trust yours.

### What we check

- **Product data for machines** — JSON-LD for your store and products: price, currency, availability, brand, identifiers.
- **AI crawler access** — whether robots.txt lets AI search and shopping agents read your pages. Blocking AI training crawlers is your choice and does not cost points.
- **llms.txt** — a short guide to your store for language models.
- **Discoverability** — a sitemap with product URLs and dates.
- **Readable without JavaScript** — title, description, product name and price in the HTML.
- **HTTPS & security headers** — HTTPS, HSTS, nosniff, framing protection, CSP.
- **Speed basics** — response time, HTML size and compression, measured from our server.

### About our checker

The checker runs only when someone asks for a check. It makes at most 8 small GET requests per check (robots.txt, the home page, llms.txt, the sitemap and one product page), never sends query strings or forms, and checks the same site at most once every 10 minutes. It identifies itself as `Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; GrandNode-AI-Readiness/1.0; +https://grandnode.com/ai-readiness#bot)`.

It follows robots.txt for the token `GrandNode-AI-Readiness`. To block it:

```
User-agent: GrandNode-AI-Readiness
Disallow: /
```

### FAQ

#### Is it free?

Yes. The check and the e-mailed report are free.

#### Do you store my store's data?

We keep the result (address, score and check statuses) for 90 days to improve the checker. We do not store the pages we read. If you ask for the report, we keep your e-mail to send it; newsletter e-mails only if you tick the box and confirm.

#### Why is my score partial?

Some checks could not run — for example your robots.txt asked us not to read a page, we could not find a product page, or your site was slow. Paste a product page address for the most complete check.

This is a quick outside-in check, not an audit. For an independent review see [GrandNode Certified Store](https://grandnode.com/certification).
