Selling to AI Agents: Monetizing by Making Companies Readable to LLMs
Roger_M_Taylor · x · 2026-08-12
The author suggests the best cash-flow service business right now is making companies readable to AI agents. The core strategy is showing founders what AI says about their company today to use as a sales deck.
The process involves five steps:
- Verticals: Avoid broad B2B SaaS; target specific sectors like law firms, healthcare, or Shopify apps.
- Prompts: Run 20-50 buyer intent prompts across major AI tools to see recommendations and risks.
- The Reveal: Show clients where AI gets their info wrong (e.g., wrong pricing or recommending competitors).
- The Fix: Correct the data by implementing a clean llms.txt, optimizing pricing pages, and updating docs for AI crawlers.
