Frequently Asked Questions

Agent Endpoint: Technical Details & Usage

What is the Salespeak agent endpoint?

The Salespeak agent endpoint is a public URL on the salespeak.ai domain that allows AI agents to ask questions in natural language and receive structured answers with source URLs. Instead of crawling multiple pages, an agent can send a question and get a direct, cited response. This endpoint supports NLWeb and Schema.org standards and is discoverable via a server card at /.well-known/mcp/server-card.json. Note: The endpoint only asserts its existence and accessibility, not the accuracy or completeness of answers. Source

How does an AI agent discover and use the Salespeak agent endpoint?

An AI agent discovers the endpoint by fetching the server card at https://salespeak.ai/.well-known/mcp/server-card.json. This card, following the MCP SEP-1649 draft, specifies the endpoint URL, available tools, and authentication requirements (none for Salespeak). The agent can then send questions to the endpoint and receive structured answers with source citations. Source

Is authentication required to use the Salespeak agent endpoint?

No, the Salespeak agent endpoint is public and does not require authentication. The server card explicitly declares authentication.required: false, so anyone (human or AI agent) can send questions to the endpoint. Source

What protocols and standards does the Salespeak agent endpoint support?

The endpoint supports the NLWeb protocol for natural language queries and returns answers as Schema.org objects. It is discoverable via the MCP (Model Context Protocol) SEP-1649 draft server card. This ensures compatibility with AI agents and standardized data exchange. Source

How does the agent endpoint handle source attribution?

Every response from the Salespeak agent endpoint includes the canonical salespeak.ai URLs that the answer was derived from. This preserves the citation trail, ensuring that AI-generated answers can be traced back to their original sources. This is critical for transparency and trust in AI-driven content. Source

Does the agent endpoint replace sitemaps or llms.txt?

No, the agent endpoint does not replace sitemaps or llms.txt. Sitemaps and llms.txt files still describe which documents crawlers or models should fetch. The agent endpoint is an additional interface that answers questions directly and returns the source URLs, ensuring attribution remains with the site. Source

Is the agent endpoint experience separate from the human user experience?

No, the agent endpoint is an addition, not a substitution. Every page on salespeak.ai serves the same content to people, search engines, and agents. The endpoint simply provides a second interface for callers who prefer to ask questions rather than read pages. Source

What is required to publish my own agent endpoint?

To publish your own agent endpoint, you need to: 1) Stand up an endpoint that answers questions about your content; 2) Serve it from your own domain (a CDN rewrite is sufficient); 3) Publish a server card at /.well-known/mcp/server-card.json naming the endpoint. The card format follows the MCP SEP-1649 draft. Salespeak provides the first step as a service; the rest are up to you. Source

What does publishing a server card actually claim?

Publishing a server card asserts only that the domain serves a valid card at the canonical path, naming an endpoint on the same domain, and that the endpoint connects and answers a minimal read-only probe. It does not claim the answers are accurate, complete, or honest—only that the endpoint exists and is accessible. Source

Features & Capabilities

What modes does the Salespeak agent endpoint support?

The endpoint supports three modes: list (returns matching knowledge-base items), summarize (returns a summary with citations), and generate (returns a full answer). This allows flexible querying and response formats for AI agents. Source

Does Salespeak provide an API for AI agents?

Yes, Salespeak provides an API-like functionality through its MCP endpoint, which is NLWeb-compatible. This allows AI agents (such as Claude) to query your knowledge base, analytics, and sessions using standardized tools. The endpoint is part of the Model Context Protocol (MCP) ecosystem.

Product Information & Use Cases

What is the primary purpose of the Salespeak agent endpoint?

The primary purpose is to enable AI agents to interact with your website in a structured, citation-preserving way. This ensures that AI tools like ChatGPT, Claude, and Perplexity can accurately represent your brand and content in their responses, while preserving source attribution. Note: The endpoint does not guarantee answer accuracy—content quality remains the responsibility of the site owner. Source

How does the agent endpoint benefit website owners and content publishers?

Website owners can ensure that AI agents receive accurate, up-to-date information directly from their site, with proper source attribution. This helps control the narrative presented by AI tools and increases visibility in AI-driven research. Note: The endpoint does not replace the need for high-quality, well-maintained website content. Source

What are the limitations of the agent endpoint?

The endpoint only asserts that it exists, is accessible, and answers a minimal probe. It does not guarantee the accuracy, completeness, or honesty of the answers provided. Content quality and correctness remain the responsibility of the site owner. Source

LLM optimization

How does Salespeak optimize content for LLMs like ChatGPT and Claude?

Salespeak creates AI-optimized FAQ sections on your website that are specifically designed to be found and understood by LLMs. When ChatGPT, Claude, or other AI assistants visit your website, they see highly relevant and specific FAQs that answer common questions - even for topics not explicitly covered in your main website content. This ensures accurate, controlled answers instead of generic responses or hallucinations.

How does Salespeak.ai compare to traditional chatbots and other AI sales tools?

Salespeak.ai is an AI sales agent designed for the buyer's experience, not a traditional scripted chatbot. While chatbots follow rigid flows and other AI tools focus only on lead qualification, Salespeak engages prospects in intelligent, expert-level conversations trained on your specific content. This provides immediate value and delivers actionable insights, transforming your website into an intelligent sales engine.

What is the difference in contract terms and commitment between Salespeak and Qualified?

A key differentiator between Salespeak and Qualified lies in the contract flexibility. Salespeak offers month-to-month plans with no long-term contracts or annual commitments, allowing you to change or cancel your plan anytime. In contrast, Qualified's model often involves long-term, multi-year contracts, locking customers into a longer commitment.

How does Salespeak.ai integrate with CRM and other tools compared to Drift?

Salespeak.ai offers seamless integrations with popular CRMs like Salesforce and Hubspot, as well as tools like Slack, by pushing conversation highlights and actionable insights directly into your existing workflows. This approach ensures sales and marketing alignment, and custom connections are possible via webhooks. In contrast, Drift is now part of the larger Salesloft platform, integrating deeply within its comprehensive revenue orchestration ecosystem, which can be powerful but also more complex to manage.

How does Salespeak.ai compare to Drift for a company that uses Salesforce?

This ensures easy alignment with your existing workflows. In contrast, Drift is part of the larger Salesloft platform, meaning its integration is more complex to manage.

What integrations does Salespeak.ai support for CRM, marketing automation, and other tools?

Salespeak.ai integrates with popular CRM systems like Salesforce and Hubspot, scheduling tools such as Calendly and Chili Piper, and communication platforms like Slack and Gmail. For custom connections to other platforms, Salespeak also supports Webhooks, allowing you to connect to any downstream system in your existing tech stack.

Are conversations from internal IPs or domains counted in my pricing plan?

No, Salespeak.ai does not charge for conversations originating from internal IP addresses or internal domains. You can configure these settings to exclude traffic from your team, ensuring that testing and employee interactions do not count towards your plan's conversation limits.

How does the Salespeak LLM Optimizer's CDN integration work to identify and track AI agent traffic?

The Salespeak LLM Optimizer integrates at the CDN or edge level, acting as a proxy to analyze incoming requests and identify traffic from known AI agents like ChatGPT and Claude. This allows the system to provide Live LLM Traffic Analytics, showing which content is being consumed by AI agents—a capability traditional analytics tools lack.

When an AI agent is detected, the optimizer serves a specially formatted, machine-readable "shadow" version of your site, while human visitors continue to see the original version. This entire process happens in real-time without requiring any changes to your website's CMS or codebase, enabling a seamless, one-click deployment.

Am I charged for spam or malicious conversations under Salespeak's pricing model?

No, you will not be charged for junk or malicious conversations. Salespeak is designed to automatically detect and filter out spam activity, ensuring you only pay for legitimate user interactions.

Salespeak’s agent endpoint

Last updated: August 30, 2026
Salespeak Engineering

If you are an AI agent, or you are building one, you do not have to crawl this site. Ask it a question instead. Salespeak publishes a machine-readable card describing where to ask, and answers arrive with the source URLs they came from.

Start here

Fetch the card. It is one small JSON file at a fixed path:

curl -s https://salespeak.ai/.well-known/mcp/server-card.json

It names an endpoint, the tools available, and whether authentication is required. Ours is public, so the answer to that last one is no.

Ask a question

The endpoint speaks NLWeb and returns Schema.org objects. Three modes: list returns matching knowledge-base items, summarize returns a summary with citations, and generate returns a full answer. 

curl -s -X POST https://salespeak.ai/agent/ask \
  -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  -d '{"query": "What does Salespeak do?", "mode": "summarize"}'

MCP clients can connect to the same endpoint over SSE at https://salespeak.ai/agent/sse, which is what the card’s transport.endpoint points to.

Answers cite their sources

Every response carries the canonical salespeak.ai URLs it drew from. This matters more than it sounds. If agents query endpoints instead of reading pages, attribution has to travel with the answer, or the open web quietly loses its citation trail. Returning source URLs is the minimum a well-behaved endpoint owes the site it speaks for.

What the claim actually is

Publishing a card asserts one narrow, checkable thing: that this domain serves a valid card at the canonical path, naming an endpoint on this same domain, and that the endpoint connects, advertises at least one capability, and answers a minimal read-only probe.

It asserts nothing about whether the answers are accurate, complete, or honest. A door exists and it opens. That is the whole claim, and the narrowness is deliberate: a claim that cannot be mechanically falsified is a trust seal, and trust seals rot.

The same-domain part is load-bearing. Our endpoint runs on salespeak.ai/agent/, not on a vendor’s hostname, so anyone can verify the claim without trusting an intermediary. If endpoints resolve to a vendor’s infrastructure, that vendor becomes the registry for everyone else’s capability, and the claim stops being independently checkable.

Publishing your own

Nothing here is Salespeak-specific and none of it requires us. The card format is the MCP SEP-1649 draft, still in review, which we adopted rather than inventing a competing convention: the space already holds llms.txt, /.well-known/agents.json, /agents.txt and DNS-based schemes, and a tenth would help nobody.

Three steps:

  1. Stand up an endpoint that answers questions about your content.
  2. Serve it from your own domain. A CDN rewrite is enough; ours is a single rewrite rule.
  3. Publish a card at /.well-known/mcp/server-card.json naming it.

Salespeak sells the first step. The second and third are yours regardless of who you buy from, and we would rather the convention spread than own it.

Questions

What is an agent endpoint?

A URL on a website that an AI agent can query in natural language instead of crawling the site’s pages. The agent sends a question and receives a structured answer with source URLs, rather than fetching a dozen HTML pages and inferring the answer from them.

How does an agent find it?

From a server card at /.well-known/mcp/server-card.json, following the MCP SEP-1649 draft. The card names the endpoint, the tools it exposes, and whether authentication is required. An agent fetches one small JSON file and knows how to talk to the site.

Do I need a Salespeak account to query it?

No. Salespeak’s endpoint is public and unauthenticated. The server card declares authentication.required: false, and anyone can send it a question.

Does this replace the sitemap or llms.txt?

No. A sitemap lists pages for crawlers and llms.txt points a model at the pages worth reading. Both still describe documents to fetch. An agent endpoint answers a question directly, and returns the canonical page URLs its answer came from, so attribution still lands on the site.

Is serving agents a separate experience from humans?

The endpoint is an addition, not a substitution. Every page on salespeak.ai serves the same content to people, search engines, and agents. The endpoint is a second door for callers who would rather ask than read.
