Understanding AI Bots and LLM activity

Learn how AI bots and crawlers are accessing your website information. Make sure that they can find what you want, and dont get what you want to keep private.
Understanding AI Bots and LLM activity

Search engines and AI crawlers now define how users find your content. You must guide these automated agents to ensure they interpret your data accurately. An llms.txt file serves as a direct communication channel. It provides a structured map for Large Language Models to discover your most relevant documentation and pages.

The Role of llms.txt

  • Place this file in your root directory.

  • List primary URLs and brief descriptions of your site content.

  • Help AI models distinguish between core information and secondary data.

  • Improve the quality of answers AI tools generate about your brand.

  • Reduce server load by directing crawlers to specific, high-value pages.

The Purpose of an AI Information Page

An AI information page acts as a human-readable counterpart. It clarifies your stance on data usage and machine learning.

  • State clearly how you allow AI to use your intellectual property.

  • Provide clean, markdown-formatted versions of complex reports for better machine ingestion.

  • Define the boundaries for automated scraping on your platform.

  • Update this page as AI technologies change.

How will your website appear in a world where AI agents browse for humans? Are you providing the clarity these machines require?
