The Legibility Gap

We read every sampled page twice — once as a plain crawler reading your published markup, once through an extractor. Where the two disagree, an agent is likely to disagree too.

Published, not recovered

Recovered, not published

nothing — everything on the page is also in your markup

The pages we sampled

Verified by hand from category listings — products taken from the middle of the list, never featured or best-seller placements. Open any of them and check our arithmetic.

What would move this number

  • Fill in the recommended Product fields. Your markup is present but shallow — shipping, returns, condition and price validity are the ones most often missing.
  • Express variants as a ProductGroup. Size and colour are the retail catalog, and without hasVariant an agent sees unrelated products.
  • Close the gap between your best and worst pages. The spread across your sample was 23 attributes — an agent meets the thin page as often as the rich one.

What this score is not

It is not an audit and not a judgement of the business — it is a 8-page sample taken on a stated date, scored on a published rubric with no model judgement in it. Nothing here predicts whether any assistant will recommend you; for most answer engines that is decided by a private merchant feed we cannot see. If a number here is wrong, tell us and it goes in the public corrections log.

Go deeper than eight pages

This scorecard is a sample — eight product pages, drawn at random from a published seed. It tells you where Sportsman's Warehouse stands, not which SKUs are costing you. We’ll run a real sample of the whole catalog through the same extractor and send back the fields that are missing, by product.

Everything above stays free either way — the rubric, the sampled pages, the dataset, and every other company’s scorecard.
