How does Scrunch make a JavaScript-heavy website crawlable for AI bots?
- Also asked as:
- How does Scrunch handle JavaScript for AI agents?
- Does AXP solve JavaScript crawling issues?
Scrunch makes JavaScript-heavy websites crawlable for AI bots through the Agent Experience Platform (AXP), which delivers an optimized version of page content directly to AI agents without any JavaScript dependency.
Example
For example, when a Scrunch user enables the Agent Experience Platform, their CDN automatically routes AI agent traffic through AXP.
AXP delivers clean, server-rendered HTML without JavaScript dependencies, making all content immediately accessible to AI bots.
Content is optimized with structured summaries, clarified definitions, and simplified dynamic components that AI agents can easily parse and understand.
This ensures important page content remains visible to AI agents, improving brand mentions and citations in AI search results.
Follow-up question: Does AXP require code changes to my existing JavaScript framework?
No, AXP doesn't require code changes to an existing JavaScript framework. The Agent Experience Platform works at the CDN level to automatically transform content for AI agents without modifying the codebase or affecting human visitors.
If needing to validate AXP functionality: Use Scrunch's auditing feature to check if AI agents are successfully accessing site content. Audits identify JavaScript rendering issues and confirm whether AXP is delivering clean HTML to AI bots. Users should also monitor brand presence improvements in AI search after enabling AXP.
