Pricing
The readiness check, the three validators and the Chrome extension are free without an account; the three generators need a free account, no card. Every check includes the access-policy verdict. The audit measures a whole site once. Monitor keeps a site set up the way you intend, with re-checks and alerts. Studio does it for more sites, with reports under your name, and Agency for client sites, each in its own workspace. Pay monthly, or yearly for ten months' price. Prices in USD, cancel any time.

Machine Readiness Audit
The whole site measured against the Machine Readiness standard, not just the homepage: every page as a crawler receives it, your access policy verified at the server, the files that fix what is wrong written for your platform, and which pages AI answers used for your customers' questions. A report you can share, then 30 days of re-checks to see the fixes land.
- Every page we can find from your sitemap, up to 50, checked for readability without JavaScript, structured data, forms and markdown copies.
- robots.txt, llms.txt, JSON-LD, the TDM file and agents.json written for your site, with install steps for WordPress, Shopify, Webflow, Squarespace, Wix or custom code.
- The policy verdict: what your site says machines may do, whether the server enforces it both ways, and your public statement.
- An Answer Analysis: ten of your customers' questions put to live AI search, which pages the answers used, and what those pages publish that yours do not.
- A shareable report and a PDF to keep, then a weekly re-check for 30 days.
Your report arrives by email within the hour as a link you can share and a PDF you can keep. If something fails on our side, it arrives within 48 hours or we refund you in full. One payment, no subscription.

An Answer Analysis puts up to 10 of your customers' questions to live AI search (ChatGPT, Perplexity and Google AI Overviews), shows which pages each answer used, and checks those pages with the same readiness check, so you can see what they publish that your pages do not. One run a month for each monitored site, when you want it; it is a diagnostic, not a feed.

The audit is the whole site, once, with the files written for you. Monitor is the homepage-level check re-run on a schedule, with alerts and a monthly Answer Analysis. One does not include the other.
What is the Machine Readiness Audit?
One site, once. Everything in the report is measured on your site: what each AI crawler can read, what your access policy says and whether your server enforces it, which fixes apply to your platform, and which pages AI answers used for your customers' questions. It covers every page we can find, up to 50, and ends with a shareable report and 30 days of weekly re-checks. It costs $99 because it is one site, once, with nothing recurring attached; the Monitor plan keeps checking from there. The standard it is measured against is public.
What is a readiness check?
One check of one URL: crawler access for 60 AI crawlers, the access-policy verdict, the on-page signals and the fix list. The website form is free for everyone; the monthly allowance is for the API, the MCP server and the Chrome extension with your key.
What does Monitor do?
It re-runs the check on each of your sites weekly or daily and emails you the day a verdict changes, with what moved: a robots.txt edit, a plugin that added noindex, a server that stopped answering. It also includes one Answer Analysis per site per month.
Is the audit the same as a month of Monitor?
No. The audit measures the whole site once, up to 50 pages, and writes the fix files for your platform; its 30 days of re-checks are the same homepage re-check Monitor runs. Monitor re-checks the homepage of each site on a schedule, emails you the day its verdict changes, and includes one Answer Analysis per site per month. Audit first when you want the whole picture and the files; Monitor when you want to know the day something changes.
Monitor, Studio or Agency?
Monitor watches up to 5 sites. Studio watches 15 and puts your name and logo on the reports, for a freelancer or a small studio. Agency watches 25 client sites, and more at $8 a site a month ($80 a year on yearly billing), with a workspace for each client.
Is there yearly billing?
Yes: every paid plan can be paid yearly for ten months' price, two months free. Choose Yearly above before you upgrade; a yearly plan renews once a year and can be cancelled from Manage Billing.
What is an Answer Analysis?
Up to ten of your customers' questions put to live AI search (ChatGPT, Perplexity and Google AI Overviews), with the pages each answer used and what those pages publish that yours do not. Name competitors to see which of their pages the answers used. Every answer comes from a live web search, so the pages are real and checkable. How it is measured →
Can I change plans later?
Yes. Manage Billing on your dashboard switches the plan on your existing subscription and prorates the difference; cancelling keeps the plan active until the end of the period you paid for.
