<h4>🔍 Get Found by AI Search Engines</h4>
Your site gets an llms.txt file — a new standard that tells AI crawlers what your site is about, what content you publish, and what products you sell. Think of it as robots.txt, but for AI.
<h4>📊 Speak AI’s Language with Schema.org</h4>
Automatically generates structured data (JSON-LD) that AI agents actually understand — your organization info, articles, products, and more. Better structured data = better AI recommendations.
<h4>📄 Serve Clean Content to AI Agents</h4>
When ChatGPT or Perplexity visit your page, citelayer® serves an optimized Markdown version instead of messy HTML. This uses 80% fewer tokens and gives AI a crystal-clear picture of your content.
<h4>🛡️ Stay in Control of Your Content</h4>
Configure how AI systems may use your content — allow or deny training, search indexing, and RAG/context usage. Your content, your rules.
<h4>🛒 Works with WooCommerce</h4>
If you run a shop, citelayer® makes your products visible to AI:
<ul>
<li>Product data automatically included in llms.txt</li>
<li>Product Schema.org markup generated</li>
<li>Product pages served as structured Markdown tables</li>
<li>AI agents can discover your shop via UCP (Universal Commerce Protocol)</li>
</ul>
<h4>📈 Why AI Visibility Matters Now</h4>
<ul>
<li>58% of online searches will involve AI by the end of 2026</li>
<li>Generative Engine Optimization (GEO) and Answer Engine Optimization (AEO) are the next evolution of SEO</li>
<li>Sites without AI-readable content are invisible to ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, and AI Overviews</li>
<li>citelayer® is the easiest way to make your WordPress site AI-ready</li>
