State of AI shopping readiness

Live numbers computed from every store scanned with ProductSeen. Each store counts once, using its most recent scan.

Sample: 7933 stores (8186 scans total; 33405 product pages checked across 7753 stores where product pages could be read). Scans from 2026-10-16 to 2026-10-17. Updated daily.

These stores were chosen by the people who scanned them, so the sample is not random.

Method

Each scan reads robots.txt, llms.txt, the sitemap, the homepage and up to five product pages (and, for Shopify, the public products.json catalog), without running JavaScript. Percentages are rounded. "Security checkpoint" means the site served our scanner a bot-challenge or access-denied page from Cloudflare's network; AI crawlers may or may not see the same. Field definitions are in each scan report.
