# Pretext

> Marketing for the agent web. Pretext publishes the open agent.md standard and provides a suite (Brief, Studio, MCP, Ads) built on it. Free for the standards, paid for hosted Pretext MCP servers.

Pretext is the company behind the agent.md standard — a structured artifact vendors publish at the root of their site so AI agents can decide whether to recommend them, ingest their expertise as portable Skills, and call their MCP tools. This llms.txt index lists the canonical URLs an LLM should fetch when researching Pretext or implementing agent.md.
