AstraZeneca scores 19 of 100 on Ora's agent-readiness scan, an F, read 9 November 2026. At the door, site accessible to 6 AI agent user-agents. 0 of the 17 checklist rows with an Ora check are met. A read Ora could not finish, on a site that gave it little to read. On 9 November 2026 the public site at astrazeneca.com scored **19 of 100** on [Ora's](https://ora.ai/?utm_source=agentreadychecklist.com&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=check) agent-readiness scan, an F. Ora probes a site the way an agent would: it requests pages with the agents' own user agents, reads robots.txt, looks for the files agents read, and tries the API, MCP and payment surfaces. Below, each of the 31 checklist rows is read against the Ora checks the [crosswalk](https://agentreadychecklist.com/checklist/ora-checks/) names for it, so the result says which requirements this company meets, not only how many points it scored. ## The score | Layer | Points | Share | What the layer asks | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Discovery | 7 of 12 | 58% | Can agents find and recommend it | | Access | 3 of 51 | 6% | Can agents read it | | Usability | 4 of 46 | 9% | Can agents use it | | Payments | 0 of 0 | none apply | Can agents pay | | Total | 19 of 100 | 19% | Grade F | ## Row by row A row is met when every Ora check the crosswalk names for it passes, not met when every one fails, and partly when the checks disagree or one is partial. A row with no Ora check in the catalogue, or whose checks did not apply to this site, is marked as such; the [Verify Kit](https://agentreadychecklist.com/kit/) tests those by hand. | Row | Level | Result | Ora checks, and what Ora saw | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | AR-FIND-01;

These are the 5 with the largest estimates for AstraZeneca, each tied to the checklist row whose recipes cover it. Public API with reachable endpoints Fail, 0 of 7, about 6.8 points to gain. Ora saw: No publicly reachable API surface detected (REST and GraphQL both absent or auth-gated). No checklist row names this check. MCP server / manifest Fail, 0 of 6, about 5.8 points to gain. Ora saw: No MCP server or manifest found. Row [AR-ACT-03](https://agentreadychecklist.com/checklist/ar-act-03/), MCP over Streamable HTTP. OAuth 2.0 support Fail, 0 of 5, about 4.8 points to gain. Ora saw: No OAuth 2.0 or OpenID Connect support detected. Row [AR-ACT-01](https://agentreadychecklist.com/checklist/ar-act-01/), Auth an agent can finish. Scoped permissions Fail, 0 of 5, about 4.8 points to gain. Ora saw: No declared OAuth scopes, security schemes, or scoped-permission documentation found. Row [AR-ACT-01](https://agentreadychecklist.com/checklist/ar-act-01/), Auth an agent can finish. WebMCP support Fail, 0 of 5, about 4.8 points to gain. Ora saw: No WebMCP support detected - no tool-attribute forms and no document.modelContext / navigator.modelContext usage found. Row [AR-ACT-07](https://agentreadychecklist.com/checklist/ar-act-07/), WebMCP tools. ## Our read AstraZeneca's read is the odd one in this set, and the verdict has to say so. Ora's bot detection check found the site accessible to six AI agent user agents, yet the same scan could not fetch the home page, could not read robots.txt and sampled no content pages, so the Access layer scores 3 of 51 on absences Ora could not confirm were the site's doing. What is certain is thin: Wikipedia and Wikidata confirm the domain, the site appears twice in a search for its own name, there is neither a sitemap nor an llms.txt, and the act layer is empty at both the API and the OAuth end. A second scan on another day is the right next step before anyone at AstraZeneca acts on this page; if it reads the same, the first fix is making the home page answer a plain request with its text. ## Verify your own site The scan above is free and needs no account: enter a domain at [ora.ai](https://ora.ai/?utm_source=agentreadychecklist.com&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=check) and read the same four layers for your own site, then take each failing row to its recipe on this site. The command below runs the same audit from a terminal and exits with 1 under the score you set, so it can gate a deploy. Payments did not apply to this company; a site that sells is read on that layer too.
