Ora founder Assaf Elovic on agents and the open web: "We spend 20 years keeping bots out and now we have to let them in."
His data: agents reach a site's llms.txt in only 32% of cases, and 86% of those because the site linked it — evidence that agent-friendly web adaptation is barely started.
Quoted AWS engineer Olawale Oladehin adds the pace of change: just six months ago 3% of Vercel deployments were triggered by coding agents; now it's 60%.
