Perplexity could be leaving ~$4,624,000 in new ARR on the table every year
Stunt Double’s 2027 agent-traffic model projects 34% of trial, signup and plan selection sessions in the SaaS sector will be initiated or completed by AI agents[1][2]. Perplexity currently scores 32.0 on the Stunt Double Index[3], 18.1 points below the SaaS peer average, with a 68-point gap to the ideal agent experience (100). The loss figure below applies that gap to the projected agent-driven slice of a typical annual recurring revenuebaseline for this sector — it is a directional estimate, not a measured conversion rate.

Where agents get stuck
Public summary · full session replay available to verified ownersmediumBrand awareness
No Organization JSON-LD. Agents can’t tell who owns the site at a glance.
lowBrand awareness
Fewer than two social profiles linked. Agents struggle to triangulate the brand.
lowDiscovery
No llms.txt. You miss the emerging standard for giving agents a curated map of the site.
highInformation retrieval
Homepage ships little text to server-rendered HTML. Agents without a browser see an empty shell.
mediumInformation retrieval
No JSON-LD structured data. Agents must infer entities from markup.
mediumMarket ranking
No Product/Service schema on the homepage. Agents can’t easily compare offerings.
lowMarket ranking
No review or aggregateRating schema. Agents have no signal for ranking vs peers.
mediumMarket ranking
No price visible to non-JS clients. Agents may report "pricing not disclosed".
mediumAccuracy
No JSON-LD at all. Every factual claim must be inferred from prose.
lowAccuracy
No privacy policy linked from the homepage. Agents can’t cite policy when asked.
mediumTask completion
No visible primary call-to-action in the server-rendered HTML. Agents have nothing concrete to click on behalf of a user.
highTask completion
No reachable entry point for delegated tasks — nothing at `/pricing`, `/signup`, `/cart`, `/book`, or similar responds without auth.
highTask completion
Homepage returns a bot-challenge / CAPTCHA. Agents can’t complete a task if they can’t load the site.
lowTask completion
No server-rendered form detected. Agents without JavaScript can’t submit anything.
mediumTask completion
No mention of delegated auth primitives (passkey, OAuth, MCP). Agents must drive a full browser session.
highDelegated access
No MCP manifest. Agents can’t auto-discover tools or delegated capabilities.
highDelegated access
No public API docs detected. Agents have no scoped way in; they must drive a browser.
lowDelegated access
robots.txt doesn’t mention any agent user-agents. The policy for agents is implicit.
highContact & communication
No contact page linked or reachable. Agents acting on a user’s behalf have nowhere to send a message.
mediumContact & communication
No contact email visible in server-rendered HTML. Agents can’t fall back to email.
lowContact & communication
No help, support, or FAQ hub linked. Agents can’t self-serve an answer before reaching out.
