Since October 22, 2026, every Connectively table that shows a publication's Domain Authority has two more scores: Domain Rating by Ahrefs and Agentic Score from is-agentic.com. Agentic Score measures how well AI agents can read the publication's site. Both columns start hidden; this guide shows how to turn them on, what each score tells you, and where else the scores appear.
In the video: on the Questions page, click the sliders button at the right of the table toolbar, tick Domain Rating and Agentic Score in the Toggle columns menu, and both columns appear next to Domain Authority.
Key points
- Connectively tables that show Domain Authority (DA) now also offer Domain Rating (DR) and Agentic Score columns, hidden until you turn them on.
- Domain Rating comes from Ahrefs and measures the strength of a publication's backlink profile on a 0–100 scale.
- Agentic Score comes from is-agentic.com and measures, on a 0–100 scale, how well AI agents can read and act on a publication's site.
- Both scores refresh every 15 days. Agentic Score is available on every plan; Domain Rating is locked on the same plans as Domain Authority (Lite and Starter).
- The scores also appear in the Connectively API and on each publication's public page.
Why add two more scores?
Because Domain Authority alone no longer tells you whether a placement will be found. Domain Authority, from Moz, estimates how well a site ranks in traditional search. Domain Rating gives a second, independent read from Ahrefs, based on the site's backlink profile, so one tool's quirks don't decide which publications you prioritize.
Agentic Score answers a newer question: when ChatGPT, Perplexity or another AI assistant goes looking for an answer, can it actually read this publication? is-agentic.com scans the site the way an AI agent would. A high score means agents can read and use it easily, so an expert quote published there is more likely to be found and cited when people ask AI assistants about your topic.
Step 1: Open your Questions list
Sign in at connectively.us and open Questions. The same columns are available in your answer tables too (Selected, Published and the rest), and anywhere else a table shows Domain Authority.
Step 2: Open the column toggle
At the right end of the table's toolbar, next to the filters, click the button with the sliders icon. A Toggle columns menu opens, listing every column you can show or hide.
Step 3: Tick Domain Rating and Agentic Score
Tick Domain Rating and Agentic Score. The columns appear right away, next to Domain Authority, and you can sort by either one by clicking its header. Hover a header to see where the score comes from.
Connectively remembers your choice on this browser, so the columns stay on the next time you open the table.
What do the scores mean?
All three scores run from 0 to 100, and Connectively refreshes each one every 15 days:
| Score | From | What it measures |
|---|---|---|
| Domain Authority | Moz | How well the site is likely to rank in search |
| Domain Rating | Ahrefs | The strength of the site's backlink profile |
| Agentic Score | is-agentic.com | How well AI agents can read and act on the site |
A blank cell means the publication hasn't been scored yet; new publications are picked up on the next refresh.
Where else do the scores appear?
- On every publication's public page. Agentic Score is shown to everyone; Domain Rating and Domain Authority are shown on paid plans.
- In the Connectively API. The free API's question list returns
agenticScore. The Business API returnsdomainAuthority,domainRatingandagenticScoreon the premium question list and on your submitted, selected, published and not-selected answers. A publication that hasn't been scored yet returnsnull.
Frequently asked questions
Which plans can see the new scores?
Agentic Score is available on every plan. Domain Rating sits behind the same lock as Domain Authority, so it is locked on Lite and Starter plans.
Why can't I see the columns?
They are hidden by default. Click the sliders button at the right of the table's toolbar and tick Domain Rating and Agentic Score.
How often are the scores updated?
Every 15 days for each publication.
What does a high Agentic Score mean for my pitch?
It means AI agents can read the publication's site well, so a quote published there is easier for AI assistants to find and cite. Use it alongside Domain Authority and Domain Rating when you decide which questions to answer first.
