What OpenAI actually said

The company is not named in this answer

“Best hygiene services for multi-tenant office properties”

Good — I’ll cover which hygiene services matter most for multi‑tenant office buildings, how to specify and buy them, what to require from vendors, and quick next steps (including an RFP/checklist you can reuse).

Top hygiene services to include

Nightly janitorial (vacuuming, dusting, trash removal, restroom cleaning/restocking, high‑touch disinfection).

Day‑porter / lobby attendant (restroom and lobby checks, spills, touchups during business hours for high‑traffic multi‑tenant lobbies).

Restroom service contract (frequent checks, inventory/refill of tissue/soap/towels, odor managemen …

Ready for AI agents

What this website publishes for an AI agent to read, use and buy from, on a scale of six levels.

  1. 0
  2. 1
  3. 2
  4. 3
  5. 4
  6. 5

Level 0: Not yet agent-ready. Agents struggle to find basic information about the site.

To reach level 1:
  • 2 of robots.txt, Sitemap, Link headers

The website turns away requests that do not come from a browser. AI agents that say what they are meet the same refusal.
