# Scorecard for Professional and B2B services

## In short

In the crawl of 4 Nov 2026, 96.8 percent of professional services sites with a readable robots.txt allowed the four main AI agents, and 95.5 percent of home pages showed readable text to a plain fetch. The sample is 377 domains, a complete first edition. Most rows come from Ora's Marketing category.

## The four numbers

-   97%allow the four main AI agents
    
    331 of 342 sites with a readable robots.txt let GPTBot, ClaudeBot, PerplexityBot and Google-Extended in at the root
    
-   95%show readable text on the home page
    
    339 of 355 home pages gave a plain fetch 150 words or more of text, not a script-only shell
    
-   3.6%publish any act surface
    
    13 of 363 sites answered with an MCP manifest, an OpenAPI file, an agent card or agents.json at a standard path
    
-   0%publish a payment or commerce file
    
    0 of 366 sites answered with a UCP profile at /.well-known/ucp.json
    

## Against the whole crawl

| Measure | This sector | All crawled domains |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Allow main agents | 96.8% (331 of 342) | 84.4% (7,282 of 8,624) |
| Readable home page | 95.5% (339 of 355) | 84.9% (7,457 of 8,783) |
| Any act surface | 3.6% (13 of 363) | 2.1% (216 of 10,385) |
| Any payment surface | 0% (0 of 366) | 0.6% (62 of 10,439) |

The share allowing the main agents is 12.4 points above the crawl as a whole, and the share with readable home page text is 10.6 points above it.

## How this sector was sampled

377 domains fall in this sector. The sector figures use Ora leaderboard categories as stand-ins, not a definition of the sector: Marketing (226 rows), Legal & Compliance (92 rows), HR & Recruiting (58 rows), plus 1 domain placed by a keyword on the domain name. 373 answered a plain fetch. The percentages use the denominators shown in each row, because a site with no readable robots.txt, or a home page that did not return 200, cannot be counted in that measure.

The [methodology](https://amireadyforagents.com/scorecards/methodology) lists the category and keyword rules. Sector assignment by keyword is rough by design, and a site can sit in the wrong sector; the leaderboard category is the stronger signal. For context, Ora's own leaderboard averaged 53.7 out of 100 over 92 Legal & Compliance entries on 5 Nov 2026 (vendor-published).

## What to do with it

-   Ask your web team for the same four checks on your own site: robots.txt rules for the four agents, home page text without scripts, any act file, any payment file.
-   Take the [professional services guide](https://amireadyforagents.com/for/services) to the meeting where those decisions are made.
-   Run the [self-check for professional services](https://amireadyforagents.com/self-check/services) to see which of your own answers are open.
