What is
llms.txt?
A proposed standard file telling LLM crawlers how to find and use a site's content.
By Anish· Founder · Vedwix
·Definition
llms.txt is an emerging convention (2024-2026) where sites publish a markdown file at /llms.txt that summarizes their content for AI crawlers. It functions as a clearer, more structured alternative to robots.txt for LLM-aware crawling. Adoption is growing as AI search becomes a meaningful traffic channel.
Example
A documentation site publishes llms.txt with structured links to its API reference, guides, and examples.
