Radar's AI Insights gets three fresh widgets!

Hi everyone, I'm Shiichan! Today I've got a fun little update that lets you peek at how AI agents are moving across the web.

What was announced?

Cloudflare's Changelog announced three new widgets on the AI Insights page of Cloudflare Radar. They all center on AI agents: you can now see how ready websites are for AI, and what responses sites are actually sending back to AI bots.

The story so far

Up to now, AI Insights was mostly about watching AI crawler and bot traffic trends. There wasn't much of a way to check, in numbers, whether your own site was prepared for the AI era. These additions give you new gauges for measuring exactly that readiness.

What changes

Here are the three new pieces.

• AI agent standards adoption: A widget tracking how much sites implement agent-facing standards. You can filter by domain category, and it updates every Monday.
• Markdown for Agents savings gauge: Shows the median drop in response size when you serve Markdown instead of HTML to AI bots, which helps save bandwidth and tokens.
• Response status distribution: The spread of HTTP status codes being sent to AI agents. You can view individual codes like 200, 403, 404, or group them as 2xx, 4xx, and so on.

Dive Deep

The agent standards adoption data is also available through the Agent Readiness API. If you want to check a single site on the spot, the URL Scanner added a dedicated readiness tab, and there's also the score tool at isitagentready.com plus the Agent Readiness blog post.

The savings gauge is built on Markdown for Agents, and you can pull those numbers from its API reference too. Response status can be viewed per bot as well, so you can even see what statuses, say, Google's bot is receiving.

Wrap-up

• Radar's AI Insights added three widgets: agent standards adoption, a Markdown savings gauge, and response status distribution
• Adoption data comes from the Agent Readiness API, and Markdown savings from the Markdown for Agents API
• You can check individual sites with URL Scanner or isitagentready.com, and per-bot responses in the bots directory

This one's a great fit for anyone working on making their site agent-ready, or web operators curious about how their site looks to AI!
