llms.txt Generator

Build a clean, structured llms.txt file in 2 minutes. It gives LLMs a navigable map of your site. Anthropic, Vercel, Cursor, and Mintlify publish one. Google has said it does not read the file, so treat it as a low-cost map for the assistants that do, not a ranking lever.

Generate a properly-formatted llms.txt file, an emerging standard from llmstxt.org for telling LLMs how to navigate your site. Already adopted by Anthropic, Vercel, Cursor, and Mintlify. Place at your site root (e.g. example.com/llms.txt).

One-line summary rendered as the quoted blockquote below the title. Keep it tight: under ~140 chars.

Free-form paragraph(s) explaining what the site is, who it serves, and what an LLM should know up-front.

Why this matters for AI ingestion

llms.txt is a proposed standard for giving LLMs a clean, structured map of your site, like robots.txt for crawlers and sitemap.xml for search engines, but optimized for LLM context windows. Anthropic, Vercel, Cursor, and Mintlify publish one, and Anthropic and Perplexity say their retrieval reads it. Google has said it does not use the file, and across the web AI crawlers rarely fetch it. Treat it as a two-minute map of your key pages for the assistants that do read it, not as a ranking signal.

How to install this on your site

Save the output as a plain text file named llms.txt and place it at your site root, so it's reachable at https://yourdomain.com/llms.txt. Same location pattern as robots.txt and sitemap.xml.

Common destinations: Astro / Next.js → drop in public/llms.txt. WordPress → upload to the site root via FTP or your hosting file manager. Webflow → use a custom domain redirect or hosting-level static file. Vercel / Netlify → place in the project root or public/ folder. Confirm it's live by visiting the URL directly.

Spec reference: llmstxt.org (the canonical spec proposal, with examples from sites that have already adopted it).

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

llms.txt is a plain-text Markdown file you place at the root of your domain (yourdomain.com/llms.txt) that gives large language models a curated map of your most important pages. Proposed by Jeremy Howard of Answer.AI in 2024, it's designed to help AI assistants like ChatGPT, Claude, and Perplexity find and understand your key content without wading through navigation, scripts, and boilerplate.

At the root of your domain, served at /llms.txt, the same place you'd put robots.txt. Larger sites sometimes also publish an /llms-full.txt with the full text of key pages inlined. This generator produces the standard root-level format.

Adoption is limited. Anthropic, Vercel, Cursor, and Mintlify publish one, and Anthropic and Perplexity say their retrieval reads it. Google has said it does not use the file, roughly one site in ten publishes one, and AI crawlers rarely fetch it. It takes two minutes, costs nothing, and gives an assistant a clean map of your key pages. It is not a ranking factor.

They solve different problems. robots.txt controls which crawlers are allowed to access your site. sitemap.xml lists every URL for search engines to index. llms.txt is a human-readable, curated guide that points LLMs to your most valuable content and explains what it is, closer to a hand-drawn map than a full directory. For a walkthrough of both files (with copy-paste templates), see llms.txt and robots.txt: how to tell AI crawlers what to read.

No. It's one piece of the puzzle. AI assistants also need to actually read your rendered content, trust your business as an entity, and find structured data they can extract.
