Reading cost for an AI agent: what it measures
The tokens the page costs as HTML and as the Markdown an agent fetch tool keeps, and whether the page links a Markdown version.
How it is determined
The check reads the response your server returns and records what it found. That observation is stored with the report, so reopening an old audit shows what was true on the day it ran rather than what the page says now. It is not a live measurement, and it is not a model’s opinion of your page.

What it cannot tell you
- How any one agent converts the page; each uses its own rules.
- Whether an engine reads, ranks or cites the page. No engine documents using either figure.
If it failed, what to do
Keep the facts and answers in the HTML as text inside <main>. A Markdown version is optional.
Then verify it yourself rather than trusting the next report: reload the page, view the source, and look at the thing the check described. A check you can falsify in ten seconds is the only kind worth having.
Settle it without an account
The free ai agent view checks this on one URL and needs no signup — the same rule, on the same page, with no credit spent. When you want the whole page assessed, an audit is covered by the trial credit.
