About

Arachne turns existing websites into governed, agent-ready interfaces. It scans a site, identifies agent-readiness gaps, and compiles a Shadow API that AI agents can call through MCP instead of brittle HTML scraping.

Arachne produces evidence-backed tools with normalized capabilities, source evidence, confidence scoring, risk profiles, action policies, audit trails, and drift monitoring. The website stays human-facing; Arachne creates the structured agent-facing layer beside it.

Start with a free readiness score, unlock a full report, then deploy a hosted Shadow API for Claude, Cursor, ChatGPT-style agents, and other MCP clients.

Use Cases

Checking how AI search engines like ChatGPT or Perplexity discover, recommend, and cite your brand versus competitors
Scanning a public website to find where AI agents cannot discover, connect to, or complete tasks on the business's capabilities
Turning AI visibility and agent readiness evidence into a prioritized list of fixes with a way to verify them

Who it is for

AI teams building agents that need structured, governed interfaces to websites
Brands and marketing teams tracking their AI search visibility and competitor recommendations
Agencies running prospect scans, pooled tracking, and white-label client reports

FAQ

What is a property?

A property is a brand, domain, or site you are actively measuring and managing inside Arachne.

What counts as a tracked prompt?

A tracked prompt is a recurring AI-search question or intent that Arachne monitors for visibility, recommendation, competitive, and source evidence.

Is Agent Infrastructure included?

Yes. Agent Infrastructure includes interface recommendations, governed implementation guidance, and hosted MCP/OpenAPI where appropriate. Coverage and deployment scope still depend on the property and plan.

Can I upgrade later?

Yes. The plans are designed to let you start with measurement and expand into more properties, prompts, AI surfaces, and full-journey capabilities.

What if I manage client brands for an agency?

Use the agency plans instead. They are designed around pooled usage, client workspaces, prospecting, white-label reporting, and recurring client delivery.
