What is holding Thumbtack back

  1. Passkeys at sign in, 4 points lost. No passkey signal was found on the sign in page or in the published pages read. A prompt that starts only after a person types is not visible to the scan. Fix: Offer passkeys with conditional UI on the sign in page and for step up approvals.
  2. Documented delegate and data sharing controls, 4 points lost. No public page on delegate access or connected app controls was found. Fix: Publish a help page on delegate access and add a connected apps screen where customers revoke access.
  3. Terms on automated access, 4 points lost. The terms restrict automated access and name no exception for authorized agents. Fix: Add an exception for authorized agents acting for the customer through approved interfaces.
  4. llms.txt guide for agents, 3 points lost. No llms.txt file was found at the site root. Fix: Publish /llms.txt with links to product, pricing, support and location pages.

What already works

  • MCP server
  • OAuth and OpenID metadata
  • Sign in page loads for a declared agent in a browser
