llms.txt Generator

Create an llms.txt file for your website. Guide AI crawlers like ChatGPT, Claude, and Perplexity on what to index and how to cite your site.

Last updated: April 2026

What is llms.txt?

This llms.txt generator gives AI models the same kind of guidance robots.txt gives crawlers. robots.txt controls who can crawl your site. llms.txt tells AI models how to understand it. It's a proposed standard (llmstxt.org) that gives ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, and Google AI Overviews your site name, key pages, features, and preferred citation format. No blocking, just context so AI systems represent your brand accurately when they cite you.

This llms.txt generator creates a valid file from your inputs. Fill in the fields, hit Generate, and drop it at your site root (example.com/llms.txt). As AI search grows, sites with an AI crawler guide get cited more accurately, and that starts with telling LLMs what to say about you.

How to create an llms.txt file

Four inputs, one file. Fill in your site name, a one-line description, the 5-10 most important URLs you want AI models to know about, and your preferred citation format. Hit Generate and save the output as llms.txt at your site root. The whole process takes under five minutes, and you can update the file whenever you launch a new landing page.

llms.txt vs. robots.txt

Different jobs, same location. robots.txt says who is allowed to crawl which paths. llms.txt says how to represent your site when an AI model decides to talk about it. robots.txt is about access control. llms.txt is about narrative control. Both sit at your site root as plain text files, and both are read by crawlers on every fetch.

What to include in your llms.txt file

Keep it short. The spec suggests 200-400 words total, which is tighter than most people think. Include your site name, a one-paragraph description of what you do, a list of 5-10 important URLs, and your preferred citation format. Add an optional "Optional" section for secondary pages like blog archives. Skip press releases and anything that won't matter in six months. Quality over quantity is the point of the format.
