No numeric customer or user count was found in the permitted official sources.
The permitted product and help pages describe capabilities and limits but publish no customer-count figure. https://www.bing.com/webmasters/
Morningscore

https://morningscore.io/morningscore-4-live-now-see-features-and-changes/
Agent readiness level
Automation
How ready the product is to operate as or inside an AI agent workflow, based on tracked subcriteria for autonomy, controls, integrations, memory, and evaluation.
Bing Webmaster Tools
Programmatic URL submission and IndexNow support provide a meaningful automation surface.
The URL Submission API supports OAuth 2.0, batch submission up to 500 URLs and 10,000 URLs per domain per day; IndexNow is recommended for automated notification. https://www.bing.com/webmasters/help/URL-Submission-62f2860b
Morningscore

Ease of use and autonomous level
Automation
How easy it is for a team to reach useful outcomes, and how much work the product can perform autonomously after setup.
Bing Webmaster Tools
Automation is limited to indexing notifications; SEO analysis and fixes remain human-directed.
Manual submission requires sign-in, selecting a verified site, entering URLs and clicking Submit, while its limitations say it is user-driven and not integrated with publishing pipelines. https://www.bing.com/webmasters/help/URL-Submission-62f2860b
Morningscore
One-click AI fixes, prioritized missions, CMS plugins and automated reports reduce manual work, while the plugin explicitly recommends reviewing fixes and MCP is beta.
