Needs work

This is how AI agents (not browsers) experience squarespace.com. The score weights five categories of machine-readability; the ticks on the arc are the 31 individual checks behind it.

Top fixes

Checks tagged “emerging” are 2026 agent-protocol standards most of the web hasn’t adopted yet — adopting early is an edge, not a defect.

failStructured data validatesStructured data

2 required-field error(s). First: Organization requires "name".

Fix: Validate your JSON-LD with Google Rich Results test. Fix missing required properties.

failLink response headersDiscoverability

No HTTP Link: response headers. Emit canonical/alternate/describedby relations so HEAD-only or stream-rendering agents get them without parsing HTML.

Fix: Emit `Link:` headers for canonical, alternate-language, and describedby relations. Agents that fetch HEAD-only or stream-render rely on these.

failText-to-markup ratioReadability

Visible text is 4.5% of HTML weight (27723/620263 bytes). Low. Markup may be crowding out agent-usable text.

Fix: Heavy ad or navigation markup crowds out agent-usable text. Aim for a text-to-DOM ratio above 15%.

warnCookie wall blocks contentReadability

Consent modal detected (trustarc.com); content still visible. Verify the modal does not block first-paint for screenshot agents.

Fix: Defer cookie consent overlay until after content is visible, or render behind the primary content. Agents without JS or with ad-blocking profiles see a blank page otherwise.

warnDeclared languageReadability

<html lang="en-US"> is valid, but 15 hreflang alternate(s) are malformed ("en-us", "en-ca", "en-gb"). Malformed alternates are ignored by consumers, so those translations are invisible to agents routing users by market.

Fix: Add `lang` to your `<html>` element (`<html lang="en">`, `<html lang="de-DE">`). If you publish translations, declare them with `<link rel="alternate" hreflang="..." href="...">` using BCP 47 tags — language[-Script][-REGION], hyphens not underscores.

failContent-Signal directivesemergingDiscoverability

No Content-Signal directives. Add e.g. `Content-Signal: ai-train=no, ai-summarize=yes` to declare granular AI usage policy beyond binary allow/disallow.

Fix: Add `Content-Signal:` directives to your robots.txt. This is the emerging standard (Cloudflare-driven) for declaring fine-grained AI usage policy beyond a binary allow/disallow.

Does AI actually recommend squarespace.com?

This scan shows whether an agent can read the site. One free probe asks a real assistant a real buying question and records who it cited.

This scan graded one page. Your site is more than one page.

This graded your homepage. Your pricing, docs, and checkout live on other pages — the ones assistants actually quote when they recommend you — and a 71/100 here means agents are already missing things on the page you polish most. The $29 Deep Scan audits the whole site against all 31 checks, then emails a PDF with every failing check and its exact fix, ranked by what costs you the most visibility. One-time, delivered in minutes, no subscription.

Qualifies for certificationBronze

Right now, only you know this score. Your buyers ask AI before they buy — certification is how you show them, and anyone comparing you to a competitor, that assistants can actually read, quote, and use your site.

  • A public verification URL you can drop into a sales deck, a procurement questionnaire, or a partner review — anyone can check it, dated and signed.
  • An embeddable badge for your site — the visible version of a property competitors can’t claim without earning the score.
  • Weekly re-checks for a full year. A deploy that breaks agent access gets caught before it costs you recommendations — and before the certificate would lapse.

Sites under 70 can’t buy this at any price — that’s what makes displaying it mean something.

Track this score

Get this report by email, then a heads-up when squarespace.com’s agent-readiness actually changes — a check regressing, or the composite dropping.

Two things never trigger an email: a score change caused by us publishing a new rubric, because that is a different instrument rather than a change to your site, and movement explained only by timing-derived checks, which shift run to run on a site nobody touched.

Want it on your own schedule, with Slack or a webhook instead of email? Score-drift monitoring is on every paid plan.

This score says whether an AI agent could read squarespace.com. AI traffic analytics says whether one actually came — and which pages turned it away.
