We scored ourselves 35. Here is how we get to 80.

We built a tool that scores how findable a brand is to AI. So we ran it on ourselves. Thirty five out of a hundred.

The number

Checked on 25 October 2026, humanforward.io scored 35 out of 100.

Search, what Google and the AI crawlers can read on the site, scored 33 out of 40. AI answers, what the engines say when a shopper asks about us, scored 2 out of 60. Agent readiness, scored on its own, came in at 30%.

ChatGPT named us in 9% of the answers we checked. Claude named us in none.

Why it is low

This is what a brand looks like in its first weeks. The basics on the site are in place, titles, schema, a sitemap, robots rules and llms.txt, so search scores well.

The answers are nearly empty because engines learn about a brand from what other people publish about it, and almost nobody has yet. Most brands have the same gap. Ours is just easier to see.

How we get to 80

Five moves, in the order we expect them to lift the AI answers number.

  1. Publish things worth quoting.This page is the start: an insights section engines can read, beginning with this score and a straight comparison of Storefront and Shopify's Agentic plan.
  2. Say who we are in the markup.Our Organisation schema now links to our Companies House record and our listing in ChatGPT's app directory, so an engine can check we are real.
  3. Get listed where engines look.ChatGPT's app directory first, then the Shopify App Store, Product Hunt and G2.
  4. Be written about.For a new brand, launch press is what engines cite most, so that comes next.
  5. Fix the share cards.Every key page now has its own Open Graph image and tags, the one search check we failed outright.

What happens next

We will run the score again and publish each result here, good or bad, until we reach 80. If you want to know where your own brand stands, the score is free.
