Bottleneck Usability Found, but the surface stalls the agent. 3.5 /10 Agent Success Score AI Visibility 37 / 100 Found & recommended by AI agents AI Usability 30 / 100 Can an agent use the surface to get the job done Coverage · 2 of 6 lanes measured Commerce lane · Wave Q2-2026-W3-SLOW Commerce 3.5 Talent usability measured After-sales — Procurement — Investor — Press — This page measures two lanes. Commerce: can an agent find Scout24, and once it arrives, transact. Talent: can a candidate's agent find an open engineering role on Scout24's own career surface and prepare the application. After-sales, procurement, investor and press lanes run on different surfaces and are not yet measured. Your brand isn't measured yet ## What does an AI agent do with your website? The same measurement as Scout24, free for your domain. Five agent classes, one real task, your score in 48 hours. The test ## The browser is the access unlock. Marketplace lead-completion is real, but it does not belong in the brand ranking. We asked five kinds of AI agent to find a 3-room rental in Munich under €1,500 cold on ImmobilienScout24 (the same unbranded probe as Vonovia). A plain HTTP fetch returned the 'Ich bin kein Roboter' challenge page; the coding agent hit the same wall. Standard browser runs succeeded 3 of 3, preserving the Munich + 3-rooms + ≤€1,500 filter set and a results page with 252 qualifying listings. The autonomous agent reached the marketplace lead form on a qualifying expose (basic contact fields visible plus the 'Abschicken' submit button). Three of five agent classes reached the lead form; the surface is browser-gated by design. One label, many breeds. From a plain reader to an autonomous operator, the kinds behind ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Claude Code: Plain reader reads your raw page text, no browser Blocked Search assistant finds you through search Not yet run Coding agent a script hitting your site Blocked Computer-use agent clicks and types like a person Succeeded Autonomous operator runs the whole task unattended Succeeded Blocked somewhere on the path: Plain reader, Coding agent. A customer whose assistant runs on one of those breeds never finishes the task. Scope. This is one filter set in one city. Scout24 lists hundreds of thousands of rentals and sales across Germany; the marketplace surface behaves similarly across them. Commerce lane ## Found, and able to transact? Two questions, measured separately. A brand can be recommended and still un-buyable, or perfectly buyable and never found. AI Visibility When someone asks an agent to find a Munich rental, does it route to Scout24? 37 / 100 Scout24 comes up about a third of the time. The rest of the time, an agent recommends an alternative first. Discoverability · 18-datapoint audit AI Usability Once an agent is on Scout24's site, can it submit a lead inquiry? 30 / 100 Computer-use agent and Autonomous operator reach lead-ready; the other agent classes do not. Browser-class agents reach lead-ready; text / code agents are blocked · breakdown above Evidence · 70 / 100 A measure of how provable and consistent the result is, grounded in cross-method ground-truth agreement (the methods that ran returned the same price), not a separate measured run. A confidence layer on the two scores above, not a third sales axis. Talent lane ## The talent lane. A candidate's agent, sent to find an open software-engineering role at Scout24 and prepare the application. Same brand, second surface: the career portal. AI Usability · Talent lane ### Application-ready for agents. Every HTTP-class and coding-class agent reads the full job posting and locates a native, no-login apply form with a Cloudflare Turnstile captcha on the same page. Furthest close-state reached: application ready · frozen task locked 2026-07-02 68 AI Usability / 100 · derived, not hand-rated Plain reader fetches the posting page raw, no browser pass 200, 207KB server-rendered, full JD in raw HTML (Cloudflare, no challenge) Coding agent parses the posting into structured fields pass HTML-parse extraction: title/req/location/employment/3 requirements — scout match exact (no JSON-LD present) Computer-use agent clicks through the career portal like a person untested The score above is provisional where a class shows untested: untested classes are excluded from the calculation, so the pending check can only confirm or raise the value, never silently lower it. AI Visibility · in measurement — the audit run for this lane has not landed yet. No Talent-lane composite is shown until both axes are measured. What this does not yet cover This pass verified GET-reachability and machine-extractability of the posting and identified the apply entry point and its required artifacts. It did NOT submit the form, upload any file, solve the Turnstile captcha, or complete an application — no application was ever sent. Fairness note Scout24 runs its own career board directly on scout24.com, and the job posting we tested was fully readable by both agent types measured, with an open, no-login application entry point identified. The Cloudflare verification step on the apply form is recorded as a documented condition, not as a deduction; no application was submitted, no verification was solved or bypassed, and no personal data was used. The score reflects only the two agent types actually tested this round; browser-based agents were not part of this measurement, and the visibility result is still in measurement, so no combined score is shown. What's next ## What this means for Scout24. Diagnosis Scout24 is the marketplace counterpart in this measurement, not a brand-owned surface. On product discovery, the browser is the access unlock: the captcha turns away HTTP and a coding agent, but every browser-class agent reaches the lead form. The honest classification here is "marketplace lead-ready, browser-only path", and the right place to render that is a separate marketplace lane, not blended into the brand ranking. What changes the outcome Marketplace lane mechanics, not brand-surface repair. A separate marketplace render section that names Scout24 alongside Immowelt and Kleinanzeigen for the discovery question, a browser-readable lead-form contract that holds across the marketplace path, and citeable evidence so an answer engine surfaces the marketplace alongside the landlord on the same query. What proof looks like The proof here is not more listings. It is the marketplace and the landlord appearing on the same query without competing for the same rank slot, re-measured each wave.

Channel position ## Rental marketplaces like Immowelt and Kleinanzeigen capture 72% of rental marketplace demand before Scout24. Scout24 IS the intermediary in the rental category — the question is which intermediaries surface alongside it. Across the 18 AI Visibility responses, 72% named a competing portal (Immowelt in 13, Kleinanzeigen in 12, wg-gesucht in 10); ImmoScout24 itself appeared in 4 of 18 (22%). The Vonovia + Scout24 identical informational probe measures the landlord-vs-portal contrast on a single query: even on the marketplace side, the field is crowded — Scout24 does not own its category. 22% direct 72% via intermediary Intermediaries Immowelt · Kleinanzeigen · wg-gesucht Frozen task slate ## Hyperize-selected tasks.

Same unbranded informational probe as Vonovia by design. AI Visibility 37.22 (18/18 valid datapoints across 3 providers); AI Usability derived from a fleet wave per-class access profile (HTTP + coding blocked at captcha; standard browser 3/3 holds the filtered search; autonomous agent opens the marketplace lead form).

Confidence C; classified as marketplace per Resolver C3, never blended into the brand ranking. Methodology ## How the score was produced. Discoverability is audit-pipeline-derived. 3-provider sample (openai, perplexity, anthropic), 3 query variants per task, 2 runs per variant · 18 valid datapoints scored against a five-state handoff cascade. [\[S1\]](#sources) AI Usability is derived from the access-profile above (usability-derivation/v1.2): how far the best agent reached (close state) modulated by how many agent classes succeeded. The per-class profile is the truth; the score is a reproducible summary of it, not a separate rating. Fleet phases (HTTP / Coding / Browser / ACT) produce the profile. [\[S2\]](#sources) Formula Agent Success Score = (AI Visibility × 0.20) + (AI Usability × 0.70) + (Evidence × 0.10) On a 0–100 scale, displayed 0–10. AI Usability bundles the agent's reach + completion; AI Visibility is audit-derived discoverability. Weighting is public; the per-prompt derivation is not. Measurement scope Confidence C · one measured task on a 3-provider track (openai, perplexity, anthropic). Confidence promotes to B with a second task plus a fourth provider on the next wave.
