Roadmap
Where Rover is headed. The goal: every website becomes a callable, composable agent surface — for humans and for machines.
Agent Task Protocol (ATP)
LiveFormalized open protocol for AI agents, CLIs, and autonomous systems to interact with any Rover-enabled website.
- •POST /v1/tasks with a canonical goal-native envelope plus compatibility aliases
- •Structured results via JSON polling, SSE, or NDJSON streaming
- •Continuation input for multi-turn agent workflows
- •Discovery marker plus rover-site.json and agent-card.json for endpoint detection
- •No Playwright, no MCP servers, no middleware required for the base protocol
Agent Identity & Analytics
In ProgressFirst-party visibility into AI agent traffic on your site. Direct signal from real interactions — not estimates from third-party GEO or AI SEO tools.
- •Which AI agents visit your site and what they attempt
- •Success and failure rates per agent, per workflow
- •Five trust tiers: verified_signed, signed_directory_only, self_reported, heuristic, anonymous
- •Rover accepts the calling agent's identity and records verification method, discovery surface, capability ID, page ID, execution path, and workflow lineage
- •Intent analytics: what are AI agents trying to do on your site?
- •Replace guesswork from third-party AI traffic estimators with ground truth
Per-Agent, Per-User, Per-Geo Customization
In ProgressConnect user identity (PPID), geography, and agent identity to Rover. Customize the agent experience for every context.
- •Personalize agent behavior per user, per region, per calling AI
- •A user in Tokyo gets a different experience than one in New York
- •Claude gets different capabilities than a custom enterprise agent
- •Link PPID to Rover sessions for unified user + agent insights
- •Site owners control what each agent can see and do
WebMCP And Browser-Native Tools
PlannedBrowser-native Rover tools compiled from the same capability graph, without making WebMCP the only path.
- •WebMCP stays an optional accelerator for live-tab execution, not the base standard
- •The same capabilities remain reachable through rover-site.json, agent-card.json, and ATP
- •Turn any web app into a composable building block for agent workflows
- •Auto-index site capabilities for browser-native tool discovery
Open Compatibility Suite
PlannedShip the Rover discovery ladder and compatibility suite publicly before pushing the model into formal standards bodies.
- •Beacon-first UX spec with silent, beacon, integrated, and debug modes
- •Compatibility tests for raw HTTP, agent-card consumers, DOM/a11y agents, screenshot/VLM agents, and WebMCP-capable browsers
- •Clear distinction between rover-site.json as the rich profile and agent-card.json as the interop card
- •Standards work follows deployment reality rather than blocking product rollout
Voice Accessibility
Early AccessBrowser-native voice-driven workflows for hands-free interaction with any Rover-enabled site.
- •Speech-to-action: speak a task, Rover executes it
- •Browser-native dictation — no external services required
- •Configurable silence detection and auto-stop
- •Full voice-first experiences for accessibility and mobile
