# What is a good agent readiness score?

## In short

A good score is a relative one. Across 145,922 sites scanned, Ora reported an average of 44 out of 100 on 5 November 2026, and only 7 percent reached B or above. A B starts at 70 and an A at 86. The median on Ora's own leaderboard was 54, so 70 puts you well ahead.

## The grade bands and where companies fall

| Grade | Ora's label | Score | Companies | Share |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| A+ | Leading | 95 to 100 | 135 | 0.1 percent |
| A | Agent-Ready | 86 to 94 | 649 | 0.5 percent |
| B | Competitive | 70 to 85 | 8,447 | 6.4 percent |
| C | Needs Work | 48 to 69 | 47,885 | 36.3 percent |
| D | At Risk | 28 to 47 | 47,368 | 35.9 percent |
| F | Unusable | 0 to 27 | 27,601 | 20.9 percent |

**How 132,085 ranked companies spread across the 0 to 100 scale.** Number of companies per score band: 2,796 in 0 to 9, 8,621 in 10 to 19, 21,201 in 20 to 29, 24,585 in 30 to 39, 22,357 in 40 to 49, 25,071 in 50 to 59, 18,223 in 60 to 69, 7,078 in 70 to 79, 1,726 in 80 to 89, 416 in 90 to 100. Ora's stats API, 5 Nov 2026.

Most of the weight sits in the middle: 72.1 percent of ranked companies grade C or D. Only 784 grade A or better.

## Where a typical site loses points

**Average share of the available points earned, by layer.** Discovery 35 percent, Access 44 percent, Usability 37.5 percent, Payments 4.6 percent. Ora's stats API, 5 Nov 2026. The layer weights are 20, 30, 40 and 10 points.

By the layer averages, Discovery averages 35 percent, Access averages 44 percent, Usability averages 38 percent, and Payments 4.6 percent. Payments matters little to a site that sells nothing and a lot to one that does.

One caution on the average of 44: Ora's Community category holds 126,957 of the 132,085 ranked companies, so the all-sites figures describe a typical scanned site more than a business like yours. The sector medians on [how competitors in your sector score](https://amireadyforagents.com/how-competitors-in-your-sector-score) are the fairer comparison.

## What to aim for

-   Above the median for your sector. Across the 3,453 sites on Ora's leaderboard the median was 54; the median for each of your sector's categories is on the sector guide.
-   No layer near zero. A strong total can hide a layer of Usability or Access that agents hit first.
-   B, which Ora labels Competitive and starts at 70, as the first target for a site that sells or books online. About 1 in 14 ranked companies had reached it.
-   A score that holds after each release, rescanned by your team.

Ora says the same scan run twice converges within a couple of points, so read a move of one or two points as noise. The [self-check level](https://amireadyforagents.com/readiness-levels) measures your decisions; a score measures your public pages, and you want both to rise.
