# How to choose an agent-readiness audit

Compare an audit by its scope, evidence, deliverables and follow-up checks. See how the website and API audit differs from a focused Shopify check.

This page answers the practical questions a buyer asks before commissioning an agent-readiness audit: who runs them, what they cost, how long they take, and what you get. The conceptual guides cover the surfaces themselves. This one covers the engagement.

## Scope

The website and API audit covers the full set of surfaces an agent reaches: discoverability, content accessibility, bot access control, API/auth/MCP and A2A discovery, and commerce. The Shopify agent storefront check is narrower by design. It looks at one storefront and the checkout path an agent-driven buyer would follow, and it is priced and timed as a separate fixed-scope engagement rather than a slice of the wider audit.

## Evidence

Every finding in the report rests on one of three kinds of evidence. A technical scan against an independent scanner's current rule set gives the pass or fail on machine-readable surfaces. Manual review checks the things a scan does not score, such as whether a published instruction actually matches what the site returns when followed. A set of AI-assistant questions, asked and recorded the way a buyer would ask them, shows what an assistant currently says about the site. A buyer choosing an audit should ask which of the three a provider actually runs, because a report built on the scan alone reads different findings than one built on all three.

## Deliverables

A written report that lists each check, what was found, and a concrete fix for each gap, ordered by priority. The result is verifiable. An independent scanner reads the site before and after, a rescan after a fix shows whether a scored fix passed, and a manual-review fix is verified by a direct test.

The two fixed-scope diagnoses on the [services page](/services) are the website and API audit at €4,300 in two weeks and the Shopify agent storefront check at €999 within 48 hours of the agreed written kickoff. Implementing a diagnosis's own complete fix list is a €499 add-on when it is bought with that diagnosis and the required access is arranged in advance: collaborator access to the store for a Shopify check, and an edge runtime, deployment access and any other access the listed fixes need for an audit. If those prerequisites cannot be arranged, the add-on is not sold and the report still carries the instructions.

## Follow-up checks

The audit and the Shopify check both include a retest window, and the windows differ. The audit includes one re-scan after the fixes, within 30 days of the report. The Shopify check includes a retest of up to two corrected items within 14 days of the first package being delivered. Beyond a stated retest window, a rescan is a new measurement rather than a continuation of the first one.

## Frequently asked

turva.dev prices an audit at a fixed €4,300 for a two week engagement. The Shopify agent storefront check is a separate fixed-scope diagnosis at €999, delivered within 48 hours of the agreed written kickoff. Advisory is €3,000 per month with a three month minimum, and implementation is €1,500 per day, scoped per task. Prices exclude VAT, and the scope is written before any payment.

**How long does an agent-readiness audit take?**

A fixed-scope audit takes two weeks. The Shopify agent storefront check is delivered within 48 hours of the agreed written kickoff, with a retest of up to two corrected items within 14 days of that delivery. Advisory and implementation run on the cadence the engagement sets.

**What do you get from an agent-readiness audit?**

A written report that lists each check, what the scanner found, and a concrete fix for each gap, ordered by priority. The result is verifiable. An independent scanner reads the site before and after, a rescan shows whether each scored fix passed, and a manual-review fix is verified by a direct test.

**How do I make my site agent-ready?**

Publish the surfaces agents read, then measure the result. That means llms.txt, a markdown form of each page, a complete robots.txt and sitemap, JSON-LD for the facts on a page, the /.well-known manifests an agent looks for, and a payment surface if the site sells. Each of these has its own guide in the index.

**How does the engagement work?**

Async only. No calls, no calendar links, no discovery meetings. Replies within one business day. Fixed scope per engagement, written before payment, and an open-source reference implementation you can read before deciding.
