Can a machine read your website?

Buyers ask an AI before they ask you. This shows your homepage the way an answer engine reads it: the text it can use, and what it cannot see.

Why this matters now

Your buyers ask an AI before they ask you, and the answer names whoever the machine can read. If your page only appears after JavaScript runs, or turns a crawler away, there is nothing for an answer engine to quote, so it quotes a competitor instead. Invisible, at the exact moment a buyer is deciding. A page a machine can read is the thing this measures.

What we read

Permission to quote youA page can be indexed and still carry a setting that tells engines not to show a line of its text. If that is on, nothing else here matters.
Content without JavaScriptMost answer engines do not run JavaScript. If your copy only appears after the page renders, they see an empty room.
Readable contentAfter navigation and boilerplate are stripped, how much real text is left for a machine to quote.
Heading structureOne clear H1 and an outline that steps down in order is how a machine builds a table of contents for your page.
Who you are, declaredAn Organization block states your identity in a form an engine can quote. Without it, it has to guess.
Your citation cardThe title, description, image and icon that render when something links to you.

Only your public homepage, the same request any crawler makes. Nothing is logged in to, no account is needed, and we run no JavaScript. That last part is the point: it is what a non-rendering answer engine receives when it reaches your page.

Questions people actually ask

Why does this matter now?

Buyers increasingly ask an AI before they ask you. If an answer engine cannot read your page, it cannot cite you, and it will cite whoever it can read instead.

Do you run JavaScript like a browser?

Not in the free check. We read your page the way a non-rendering crawler does, because that is what most answer engines are. It is the uncomfortable view, and the one that matters.

Is this SEO?

Related, not the same. SEO is about ranking in a list of links. This is about whether a machine can read and quote your page at all, which is the input to being mentioned in an answer.
