llms.txt System Page

Feature

AI search engine usage is increasing. And it appears that AI search runs on different signals than conventional search.

Besides optimizing our content for AI agents, a structured txt file, similar to the sitemap.txt file, has emerged to streamline how LLMs access, parse and utilize web content called a llms.txt file. Wondering if this is something that can be looked at? Is it possible to have a llms.txt System Page, similar to the xml Sitemap System Page?

Thanks!

    Any update on this as it’s becoming more and more important with AI search

      Interesting, we’ve found that it’s going in the other direction and it’s not being used given there’s no evidence that LLMs use it:

      We can do it but haven’t been able to prioritise it. Are there any other benefits from a Siteglide perspective? We want to ensure we’re not holding you back and actually can get ahead of competitors but it’d be good to understand the use case better.

      To clarify this is a priority discussion currently so we can understand where it should fit it, absolutely no problem doing it, just when.

        Thanks@Luke Wakefield. I’ve been asked to ask by our Marketing guys as they’ve flagged it as a possible issue. I’ll check with them. Schema’s have also seem to have become more of a priority than they used to.

      We’re already looking at this as part of our work on AI tools and it’s something that Flowbite also introduced recently:
