Is your site ready for AI search and LLMs?
Generative Engine Optimization (GEO) is how you show up in ChatGPT, Perplexity, and AI Overviews. RankForge checks whether you have an llms.txt file, whether AI engines can identify your brand from your schema, and how much of your content is actually in the HTML they read. Paste your URL — free, no account required.

Why llms.txt checker matters for SEO
AI search engines and assistants increasingly answer questions directly, citing the sites they can crawl and clearly understand. Generative Engine Optimization (GEO) is the emerging practice of making your site easy for those systems to read: a concise llms.txt overview, explicit entity schema so the model knows who you are, and content that lives in the server-rendered HTML rather than appearing only after JavaScript runs. None of these are confirmed ranking signals yet — adoption is early and no major AI engine has committed to llms.txt — so treat them as forward-looking hygiene, not a guaranteed traffic lever. The upside is asymmetric: they're cheap to add and position you for a channel that's growing fast.
llms.txt & GEO Checker: frequently asked questions
What is llms.txt?expand_more
llms.txt is a proposed standard: a simple /llms.txt markdown file with a short overview of your site and links to your most important pages, so large language models can parse your content efficiently. Think of it as a robots.txt or sitemap aimed at AI crawlers rather than search engines.
Does llms.txt affect my Google rankings?expand_more
No. No major search or AI engine has confirmed it uses llms.txt as a ranking signal. It's an emerging, forward-looking standard. RankForge reports it as informational and never lets it affect your SEO health score.
What is GEO (Generative Engine Optimization)?expand_more
GEO is optimizing your site to be read, understood, and cited by generative AI engines (ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google AI Overviews) — through clear structure, entity schema, and crawlable content. It complements traditional SEO rather than replacing it.
