llms.txt Generator
Answers the file AI crawlers look for: who you are, what you sell, which pages matter and how you want to be described. Fill in the form, download the file, put it at the root of your domain. Runs entirely in your browser.
Key takeaways
- What is llms.txt? A plain-text file at the root of your domain that tells AI crawlers who you are, what you sell and which pages matter.
- Is it proven to work? No. It is a proposed convention, not a standard any engine has committed to reading, and we will not claim otherwise.
- Then why publish one? It costs nothing, it cannot hurt, and writing it forces you to state plainly what your business is, which is useful on its own.
- Where does the file go? At the root of your domain, so it answers at yoursite.com/llms.txt. Same place as robots.txt.

Where it goes. At the root of your domain, so it answers at yoursite.com/llms.txt. Same place as robots.txt. On WordPress you can upload it to the site root by FTP or use a plugin that writes root files.
What is actually proven. Not much, and we will not pretend otherwise. llms.txt is a proposed convention, not a standard any engine has committed to reading, and no engine has published that it changes citation. We publish one anyway because it costs nothing, it cannot hurt, and writing it forces you to state plainly what your business is, which is useful even if no crawler ever reads the file.
It is not a robots file. It does not block anything and it does not grant permission. If you want to control crawler access, that is robots.txt, and it is a separate decision.
Questions about this tool
No. It does not block anything and it grants no permission. Crawler access is controlled in robots.txt, and that is a separate decision with different consequences.
None have published that they do. Some crawlers request the file, which is not the same as acting on it. Anyone telling you llms.txt improved their citations is describing a correlation they cannot separate from everything else they changed.
A sitemap lists every URL for a crawler to index. An llms.txt file is a short human-readable summary of what the business is and which handful of pages actually matter, written to be read rather than crawled.
Short. A summary line, what you sell, a handful of key pages and a contact line. A file long enough to need scrolling defeats the purpose.
When your services, service area or key pages change. There is no schedule and no benefit to touching it otherwise.
By FTP or your host's file manager, into the same folder as your index file. A plugin that writes root files will also do it. It must answer at the root, not inside a subfolder.
