Module 04 · AI Visibility Layer
Most founders have never heard of llm.txt. That is why you win. Teach Perplexity and ChatGPT who you are before your competitors even know the file exists.
llm.txt is a machine readable brief about your product. It lives at /llm.txtand gives AI systems structured facts: name, audience, capabilities, pricing links, and key URLs. When someone asks "best tool for X," assistants need this context to cite you correctly.
robots.txt controls which crawlers may access your site. AI bots like GPTBot and PerplexityBot are often blocked by mistake. Based Marketing allows them on public marketing pages and blocks private app routes like /dashboard/ so you stay visible and secure.
Traditional SEO gets you into Google. AI visibility gets you into answers. Module 04 is the unfair layer: fine tune llm.txt and robots.txt so you show up when founders ask ChatGPT or Perplexity for recommendations, not just when they type keywords into a search bar.

Preview llm.txt
An llm.txt generator builds a plain text file at your site root that tells AI crawlers who you are, what you do, and which pages matter. Based Marketing's generator turns your product name, description, and audience into a ready to copy llm.txt preview.
llm.txt is a structured document, similar in spirit to robots.txt, that helps large language models and AI search tools understand your product when they crawl or cite the web. It gives assistants accurate facts instead of guesses.
When someone asks an AI assistant for tools in your category, models pull from crawled and indexed sources. A clear llm.txt improves how your product is summarized, linked, and recommended in answers.
robots.txt tells crawlers which paths they may access. Many sites accidentally block GPTBot, ClaudeBot, or PerplexityBot. Based Marketing explicitly allows AI bots on marketing pages while keeping /dashboard/ private.
Host it at your domain root, for example https://yoursite.com/llm.txt, and link to it from your sitemap. Based Marketing ships a live example at basedmkt.com/llm.txt on day one.
No. Meta tags help traditional search snippets. llm.txt is written for AI systems that answer questions and recommend products in conversation. You want both.
The generator is step one. Sign up to save profiles, auto update llm.txt and robots.txt, and ship Module 04 with the full seven module stack.
