# The Agent Door

> The Agent Door is a done-for-you service that gets small and mid-sized businesses, in any industry, ready for AI assistants and agent-to-agent (A2A) customers. Agent-to-agent means a customer's AI assistant (ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, Siri and others) talks directly to a business's own AI agent to ask questions, compare options, and book or buy, with the customer approving the final choice. We educate first, then set it up. Positioning: "AI assistants are becoming your customers' front door. We build the door they knock on."

Key facts:
- Audience: owners of small and mid-sized businesses in any industry (clinics, trades, law and accounting, retail, restaurants, auto dealers, B2B suppliers).
- Main call to action: Book an Agent-Ready Audit at https://theagentdoor.com/contact/
- Pricing: not published; quoted after a short call.
- Approach: every step pays off today (search, AI answers, website agent); agent-to-agent is the upside clients are positioned for. We are honest that agent-to-agent is early.
- We build on open standards: Agent2Agent (A2A), Model Context Protocol (MCP), and related commerce and payment protocols.
