# Agent readiness scorecards by sector

## In short

A crawl of 13,071 top websites on 4 November 2026 sliced into eight sectors: how many allow the four main AI agents, show readable text to a plain fetch, publish any act surface or any payment file. This is the complete first edition. The data downloads as CSV and JSON.

## Share of sites that allow the four main AI agents

Each dot is a sector. The measure is the share of sites with a readable robots.txt whose rules let GPTBot, ClaudeBot, PerplexityBot and Google-Extended in at the site root. The whole crawl sits at 84.4 percent.

Share of sites allowing the four main AI agents at the root, by sector. Ecommerce and retail: 94.5 percent, 190 of 201 sites. Bookings, travel and hospitality: 72.7 percent, 16 of 22 sites. Publishers and media: 61.3 percent, 119 of 194 sites. SaaS and B2B software: 95.3 percent, 936 of 982 sites. Professional and B2B services: 96.8 percent, 331 of 342 sites. Healthcare and clinics: 92.7 percent, 217 of 234 sites. Financial services: 95.8 percent, 366 of 382 sites. Local and multi-location businesses: 94.5 percent, 138 of 146 sites.

| All crawled domains | 13,071 | 84.4% | 84.9% | 2.1% | 0.6% |

Sectors are assigned from the Ora leaderboard category where a domain has one, and by a small keyword list on the domain otherwise. 10,026 crawled domains fit no sector and count only in the last row. The [methodology](https://amireadyforagents.com/scorecards/methodology) explains each count.
