AI Readiness
Technical and authority signals that support AI systems in accessing, understanding, and reusing your content
Some external data sources were unavailable. Score is based on partial data.
Technical Issues
You have basic structured data, but it's missing the rich types that AI engines look for — like FAQ sections, how-to guides, or product info. Adding these helps AI assistants extract and cite your content more accurately.
A clear Frequently Asked Questions section presents important questions and answers in a directly extractable format. Add one when it reflects real customer questions, and keep each answer factual and self-contained.
