llms.txt: what it is, and an honest look at what it does

llms.txt is a plain Markdown file at yoursite.com/llms.txt that gives AI tools a short, curated map of your site: your name, a one-line summary and sections of links with a few words about each. It was proposed in 2024 (llmstxt.org) so AI assistants and agents don't have to dig through menus, scripts and cookie banners to find your important pages.

What this tool does

  • Checks the format line by line: the required title, the summary, the sections and links written the way tools expect.
  • Tests the links: broken and redirecting links, relative addresses AI tools can't follow, and duplicates.
  • Checks access: whether your robots.txt lets AI crawlers in at all, and whether the file is served as text.
  • Builds a draft from your sitemap, with each page's real title and description, grouped into sections and ready to edit.

Where it stands, honestly

llms.txt is a proposal, not a standard. Google has said it doesn't use it, and the major AI assistants haven't confirmed reading it, though coding tools and some AI agents do. It takes about 15 minutes, so it's a cheap bet. What matters more for AI answers is letting AI search crawlers in, writing pages that answer questions directly and having clean structured data.

    Enter your website

    Edit the draft

    Fix names, add a few words to each important link and keep the 20 to 80 pages that matter most.

  4. 4
    Upload

    Save it as llms.txt in your site's root folder (next to robots.txt) and check it again.

Frequently asked questions

Does llms.txt help rankings?

No. It isn't a ranking factor, and Google doesn't use it. It may help AI agents and tools that read it find your best pages.

What is llms-full.txt?

An optional companion file with the full text of your key pages in one place. llms.txt stays a short index.

Which pages should I list?

Your main services or products, pricing, about and contact pages, and your most useful guides. Put less important pages in an "## Optional" section.

Does WordPress create one?

Some SEO plugins (Yoast, Rank Math, AIOSEO) can. Check it here either way, since generated files often list everything.

Is it free?

Yes.
