Publicly-generated scan via agentspeed.com. Not affiliated with nationwide.co.uk.

nationwide.co.uk is solidly ready for AI agents (composite 81, grade B). Strongest sub-score: actionability (89). Weakest: readability (74). The most actionable gaps detected: no markdown content negotiation.

Top fixes (8)

Findings grouped by severity. Critical and high-severity items move the composite the most; medium and low items are quality improvements. Each finding links to a full remediation page.

Critical2

Heading issues: 2 <h1 tags (expected 1); 2 skipped level(s).

Page looks like Product; missing JSON-LD type(s): Product.

Medium6

Browser pass unavailable; HTML looks like a JS-shell (e.g.

No HTTP Link: response headers.

weight 1

Visible text is 1.9% of HTML weight (9087/486681 bytes).

robots.txt advertises Content-Signal directives (e.g. `Content-Signal: ai-train=no, ai-summarize=yes`) that let agents respect granular usage preferences.

Requests with `Accept: text/markdown` return a markdown representation of the page (Markdown content negotiation).

weight 0

The page exposes WebMCP (in-browser Model Context Protocol) so on-page agents can invoke tools without leaving the tab.

FAQ
What does this AgentSpeed score mean?expand ›

The composite is a 0–100 weighted average of five sub-scores measuring how well a website performs for AI agents (ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, Operator, etc.). The full rubric (every check, weight, and grade band) is published at /rubric.

Is this an official score from the website owner?expand ›

No. AgentSpeed scores are publicly generated against nationwide.co.uk's public surfaces (robots.txt, sitemap, the landing URL, /llms.txt, /.well-known/* discovery endpoints). AgentSpeed is not affiliated with or endorsed by nationwide.co.uk. The score reflects what we observed at scan time, nothing more.

How often is this site scanned?expand ›

Public scans happen when someone submits the URL on the homepage. Once a domain is claimed in the (forthcoming) monitoring tier, the site is rescanned daily and a history is kept. For now, every public score reflects the most recent submission.

How can this score be improved?expand ›

Each failing check on the page expands to a remediation step with the exact change to make. The "Top fixes" section ranks them by score impact. Most domains move 5–10 points by adding an llms.txt, allowing well-known agent user-agents in robots.txt, and emitting JSON-LD that matches the page purpose.

What rubric version was used?expand ›

This scan was computed against rubric r2026.11.0. The rubric is versioned and immutable: historical scans always render against the rubric they were computed on, even after a new version ships. The current rubric and its full changelog are at /rubric.
