Zeodyn™ is an AI agent commerce assessment platform that answers a single question: can AI agents do business with you? The Zeodyn Scanner™ evaluates any website across six critical dimensions — Discovery & Access, Structured Data, Commerce Data, Protocol Support, Security & Trust, and Technical Performance — producing a Zeodyn Score™ from 1 to 100. The underlying Agent Commerce Stack™ methodology has been empirically validated against more than 3,500 unique e-commerce sites across 17 global markets (as of March 2026). Scores use weighted geometric aggregation (UN HDI precedent) with fail gates for critical requirements. Founded in February 2026 by Gareth Sharp (CTO, Virtual Factory Solutions Ltd.), registered in England and Wales.
