llms.txt and Brand Accuracy in AI Search (2026)
AI tools sometimes invent facts about your business. llms.txt is an optional file that points crawlers to your preferred pages — it does not stop hallucinations alone. Accurate content, schema, and human review do the real work.
What llms.txt is
A plain-text index at /llms.txt listing key URLs and short descriptions for LLM crawlers. Helpful, not mandatory — adoption varies by AI vendor.
Verified facts on your site
- Correct NAP and service list
- Organisation / LocalBusiness schema where eligible
- FAQ schema with real Q&A
- No fake awards or statistics in AI drafts
Full guide: digital proof and AI content.

Periodically search your brand in ChatGPT and Google AI Overviews. Fix site copy when errors appear; you cannot edit third-party models directly.

Do not put personal data in llms.txt. Public marketing pages only.
