Jeremy Howard proposed it in September 2024, but it is not an official standard. Google has said it is not needed for Search, and 2026 log analyses show the major AI crawlers rarely fetch llms.txt. Adding the file is cheap and harmless, but robots.txt, content visible in HTML and structured data matter far more for AI visibility.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>If you have read anything about AI visibility in the past year, you have probably seen the advice \u201cadd an llms.txt file to your site\u201d. Some present it as the new robots.txt, others as a magic key to ChatGPT. Here is what <strong>llms.txt<\/strong> really is, what it does and does not do, and whether your company website needs one.<\/p>\n<h2>What is llms.txt?<\/h2>\n<p>llms.txt is a plain text file in Markdown format located at <code>yoursite.com\/llms.txt<\/code>. The idea is to give language models a short, clean overview of a site without menus, ads or scripts. The format was proposed on 3 September 2024 by Jeremy Howard, co-founder of Answer.AI, at llmstxt.org.<\/p>\n<p>The file structure:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>an <strong>H1 heading<\/strong> with the site or company name \u2013 the only required part;<\/li>\n<li>a <strong>blockquote<\/strong> (a line starting with &gt;) with a short summary;<\/li>\n<li><strong>H2 sections<\/strong> with lists of links, each followed by a short note;<\/li>\n<li>an <strong>\u201cOptional\u201d<\/strong> section for secondary links that an AI can skip.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Some documentation sites also publish an <code>llms-full.txt<\/code> with the full text of every page. That is a convention, not part of the original proposal.<\/p>\n<h2>What does an llms.txt file look like?<\/h2>\n<p>An example for a fictional Estonian bookkeeping firm with three language versions:<\/p>\n<pre><code># N\u00e4idis O\u00dc\n\n&gt; N\u00e4idis O\u00dc is a bookkeeping company in Tartu, Estonia (registry code 12345678).\n&gt; We serve small businesses in Estonian, Russian and English.\n\n## Services\n- [Bookkeeping](https:\/\/example.ee\/en\/bookkeeping\/): monthly accounting, prices from \u20ac90\/month\n- [Raamatupidamine](https:\/\/example.ee\/raamatupidamine\/): Estonian version\n- [\u0411\u0443\u0445\u0433\u0430\u043b\u0442\u0435\u0440\u0438\u044f](https:\/\/example.ee\/ru\/buhgalterija\/): Russian version\n- [Payroll](https:\/\/example.ee\/en\/payroll\/): salaries, taxes, TSD declarations\n\n## Company\n- [About us](https:\/\/example.ee\/en\/about\/): team, experience, certificates\n- [Contact](https:\/\/example.ee\/en\/contact\/): Riia 1, Tartu, +372 5000 0000\n\n## Optional\n- [Blog](https:\/\/example.ee\/en\/blog\/): guides for entrepreneurs<\/code><\/pre>\n<h2>How is llms.txt different from robots.txt and sitemap.xml?<\/h2>\n<table>\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<th><\/th>\n<th>robots.txt<\/th>\n<th>sitemap.xml<\/th>\n<th>llms.txt<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>Purpose<\/td>\n<td>Allows or blocks crawlers from pages<\/td>\n<td>Lists every page to index<\/td>\n<td>Short summary and key links for AI<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Format<\/td>\n<td>Plain text directives<\/td>\n<td>XML<\/td>\n<td>Markdown<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Status<\/td>\n<td>Official standard (RFC 9309)<\/td>\n<td>Supported by all search engines<\/td>\n<td>A proposal, not a standard<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Controls access?<\/td>\n<td>Yes<\/td>\n<td>No<\/td>\n<td>No<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Who reads it<\/td>\n<td>All well-behaved crawlers<\/td>\n<td>Google, Bing and others<\/td>\n<td>Mainly developer tools and AI agents<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>Important: <strong>llms.txt does not control access<\/strong>.
