Web Ready
An open-source website auditor for Technical SEO, AI readiness, and fundamental web health.
The Challenge
Developers already have tools for performance, accessibility, traditional SEO, and individual AEO checks, but verifying whether a modern website exposes the technical signals required by both search engines and AI systems usually means combining multiple tools and manually inspecting metadata, robots directives, structured data, semantic HTML, and infrastructure signals. Web Ready was created to consolidate those checks into one transparent developer-oriented audit.
Engineering Delivery
Built Web Ready around two forms of execution: a CLI-first tool (`npx web-ready <url>`) and a companion Web UI. The core system operates by fetching the URL, parsing the origin HTML, running deterministic detectors, and producing a detailed report covering overall, SEO, AI readiness, and basic web health scores with recommendations and evidence. The scoring is fully transparent and rule-based with no mandatory LLM dependency, classifying issues as PASS, WARN, FAIL, INFO, or SKIP. It supports technical SEO (metadata, headers, sitemaps, JSON-LD), AI readiness/AEO (llms.txt, crawler directives like GPTBot/ClaudeBot/PerplexityBot), and basic health (TTFB, mixed content, redirect flags), making it easily integration-friendly for local dev and CI pipelines.
