Last updated: January 28, 2026


1. Agreement to Terms

By accessing or using Agent Ready ("Service"), a product of Lantern Technologies, Inc. ("Lantern," "we," "us," or "our"), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service ("Terms"). If you do not agree to these Terms, you may not access or use the Service.

These Terms apply to all users of the Service, including visitors, registered users, and merchants who connect their e-commerce stores.


2. Description of Service

Agent Ready is an AI commerce readiness analysis platform that:

  • Analyzes e-commerce websites and product catalogs for AI agent visibility
  • Provides an "AI Commerce Readiness Score" measuring how well AI shopping agents can discover, understand, and recommend products
  • Evaluates schema markup, meta tags, product data quality, and protocol compatibility (including UCP - Universal Commerce Protocol)
  • Generates actionable recommendations to improve AI visibility
  • Tracks AI-attributed sales and traffic when connected to merchant stores

3. Account Registration

Certain features of the Service require account registration. When you register, you agree to:

  • Provide accurate, current, and complete information
  • Maintain and promptly update your account information
  • Maintain the security of your account credentials
  • Accept responsibility for all activities under your account
  • Notify us immediately of any unauthorized use of your account

We reserve the right to suspend or terminate accounts that violate these Terms or engage in fraudulent activity.


4. Free Tier Services

Agent Ready offers free access to the following features:

  • AI Commerce Readiness Score analysis
  • Detailed category breakdown of readiness factors
  • Per-product analysis and issue detection
  • Prioritized recommendations for improvement
  • Code examples and implementation guidance
  • Shareable report links
  • PDF export functionality
  • Unlimited website analyses

Free tier services are provided "as is" and may be modified, suspended, or discontinued at any time without notice.


5. Transaction Fee Services

For merchants who enable AI-attributed sales tracking, we charge a transaction fee of 8% on sales attributed to AI shopping agents. By enabling this feature, you agree to the following:

5.1 Attribution Methodology

We use multiple attribution signals to identify AI-attributed sales, including but not limited to:

  • Direct referrers from AI platforms (ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, Claude, and others)
  • UTM parameters associated with AI agent traffic
  • Landing page tracking from our agent APIs
  • Checkout tokens and session tracking

We employ conservative attribution methodology. If attribution cannot be clearly established, no fee is charged.

5.2 Billing and Payment

Fees are invoiced monthly based on AI-attributed sales from the previous calendar month. Payment is due within 30 days of invoice date. We accept major credit cards and ACH transfers for payment.

There are no setup fees, monthly minimums, or subscription costs. You only pay transaction fees when AI agents drive actual sales to your store.

5.3 Disputes

If you believe a sale was incorrectly attributed to AI agents, you may dispute the charge within 30 days of the invoice date by contacting support@lantern.is with supporting documentation. We will review disputes in good faith and make adjustments as appropriate.


6. Enterprise Pricing

For high-volume merchants (typically $1M+ in monthly revenue), we offer custom enterprise pricing with volume discounts. Enterprise agreements may include additional terms that supersede these standard Terms where specified.


7. Data Collection and Use

7.1 Website Analysis

When you analyze a website, we access publicly available information including HTML content, schema markup, meta tags, and product data. We do not access password-protected areas unless explicitly authorized.

7.2 Connected Stores

When you connect your e-commerce store for sales tracking, we access:

  • Order and transaction data necessary for attribution

  • Traffic and analytics data

We use this data solely to provide the Service and calculate fees. We do not sell your data to third parties. See our Privacy Policy for complete details on data handling.

7.3 Aggregate Data
