Webinar | Redefining Discovery: How MCP and AI Search Will Change the Web Forever
AI agents are becoming a primary interface for search, discovery, and decision-making. Your website must evolve to communicate effectively with these intelligent systems in order to maintain discoverability.
In this webinar, WP Engine experts break down the Model Context Protocol (MCP)—the open standard that enables websites and AI agents to securely connect and share live, structured data. You’ll also see how WP Engine’s Smart Search AI MCP server brings these concepts to life right now, making your site part of the next evolution of the web.
Our experts show how WP Engine’s new Smart Search AI MCP server brings these concepts to life right now, so you can stay ahead of the curve and your site for the future of AI-led discovery.
In this session, panelists:
- Explain why most websites aren’t yet optimized for AI interaction and how the Model Context Protocol (MCP) bridges that gap through secure, structured data access.
- Share how MCP helps reduce AI “hallucinations” by grounding agent responses in your site’s current content.
- Show the Smart Search AI MCP in action and demonstrate how it creates a direct, real-time connection between large language models and WordPressⓇ sites.
- Share simple, actionable steps to begin making your WordPress site MCP-ready.

- Luke Patterson, Product Manager, Sr., WP Engine
- John Housholder, Senior Partner Account Manager, WP Engine
Take the next step toward AI readiness
The key to succeeding in the agentic web is turning your site into a live, intelligent knowledge base that AI agents can use to provide accurate responses to their users. To make the connection, you need more than just a stellar engineering team—you need the right platform.
