AFR.IM
About AFR
See how friendly every website is to AI. AFR.IM is an open directory that rates sites A–F on their openness to AI crawlers and agents, with the evidence chain published next to every score.
What we do
- Scan public signals only — robots.txt, llms.txt, sitemap, structured data, APIs — with a transparent crawler anyone can identify and block.
- Score them with an open standard (AFR) whose engine is a pure function: anyone can recompute any grade from the recorded snapshot.
- Publish the full report card: every point, its check, its status, and its raw evidence.
- Let verified owners respond with a statement shown beside the score, at equal weight.

What we deliberately do not do
Neutrality is the product. A rating that can be bought, argued into, or nudged is worth nothing.
- No AI-crawler blocking tools or interception services — that would be a conflict of interest and destroy our neutrality.
- No subjective human reviews: only automated ratings of public, reproducible signals.
- No brand AI-mention monitoring — other products own that battlefield.
- No moral verdict on "AI-friendliness": we publish coordinates, we do not take sides.
