What this tool does

llms.txt is a proposed convention — similar in spirit to robots.txt or sitemap.xml — for giving AI assistants and language models a short, Markdown-formatted summary of a site's purpose and its most important pages, since crawling and parsing full HTML for every page is expensive and often noisy. It's not yet a formal web standard, and adoption by any particular AI crawler isn't guaranteed, but publishing one is a low-cost way to offer a curated summary if tools start reading it.

How to use it

  1. Enter your site's title and a short summary of what it does.
  2. List key links and documentation links, one per line, as "Label: URL".
  3. Add optional notes for anything else worth surfacing.
  4. Copy the result into an llms.txt file at your site's root.

Privacy

This tool runs entirely in your browser. Your input is never uploaded, stored or shared — closing the tab removes it.

Frequently asked questions

Is llms.txt an official standard?
No — it's a community-proposed convention, not a W3C or IETF standard, and there's no guarantee any given AI crawler reads or respects it. It's a low-effort bet, not a requirement.
Where should the file be published?
At the root of your domain, e.g. https://example.com/llms.txt, the same convention as robots.txt.
How is this different from a sitemap?
A sitemap.xml lists URLs for search engine crawlers to index; llms.txt is a short, human-and-LLM-readable summary meant to be read directly, more like a curated README than an exhaustive URL list.
