webAI TechStack
The webAI TechStack agent has been trained by ISTARI.AI to examine enterprise websites in terms of their “technology stack”. A website’s technology stack includes the technologies, applications, and services used to build and operate the website. webAI TechStack thus provides insights into the security, modernity, and performance of a website.

Our webAI calls up the website of the company under investigation and analyzes the technology stack used there. WebAI thus finds technologies assigned to categories for each corporate website. Thus, a corporate website can also use several technologies from one category, as seen in this example:
‘CMS (WordPress)’, ‘Blogs (WordPress)’, ‘Databases (MySQL)’, ‘Programming languages (PHP)’, ‘WordPress themes (FameThemes OnePress)’, ‘UI frameworks (animate.css)’, ‘UI frameworks (Bootstrap)’, ‘Web servers (Apache)’, ‘A/B Testing (Complianz)’, ‘Cookie compliance (Complianz)’, ‘WordPress plugins (Complianz)’, ‘Font scripts (Google Font API)’, ‘Font scripts (Font Awesome)’, ‘Font scripts (Twitter Emoji (Twemoji))’, ‘JavaScript libraries (jQuery Migrate)’, ‘JavaScript libraries (jQuery)’
From the lists of found technologies generated by the webAI TechStack Agent, both specific technologies (e.g. “PayPal”, “Apple Pay”) and the superordinate categories (e.g. “Payment processors”) can be determined. For the DACH region, for example, it is possible to find out that around 24,500 of the 28,000 companies that have integrated a technology from the “Payment Processors” category into their technology stack use PayPal.
Like all our webAI agents, the webAI TechStack agent has been validated together with independent subject matter experts. For this agent, ISTARI.AI collaborated with researchers from the Technical University of Munich, who also used information on cryptocurrency payment processors (e.g. Bitcoin) from the TechStack agent in a study on the use of blockchain technologies. The associated study will soon be published as a discussion paper.
