Do I need to know how to code?

No. Every problem is explained in plain English with the exact fix. If your site's built with an AI tool, you also get a file to paste into it and say "repair it".

Which website builders does it work with?

Any public URL. We detect Lovable, Bolt, v0, Replit, Framer, Webflow, Wix, WordPress, Shopify and more, and tailor the fixes to your builder.

Is this a security penetration test?

No — and we never claim to be. Scanvify checks what's publicly visible from outside. It doesn't test your server, database or logged-in areas. It's a launch-readiness and public-health check.

How much does it cost?

A free scan of your homepage with your top problems. A full-depth report with fixes is a one-time ₹299 in India ($12 internationally). If you scan often, India also has monthly plans from ₹499/mo.

What is a website launch-readiness check?

It's a scan of everything that decides whether a new site succeeds with real visitors: does it work on phones, load fast, show up on Google and AI search, pass accessibility basics, and avoid public security mistakes. Scanvify runs 40+ of these checks across every page and scores the result.

Can ChatGPT, Perplexity and AI search engines see my website?

Not always. Many AI-built sites render their content with client-side JavaScript, so AI crawlers — which mostly read the raw HTML your server returns — see a nearly empty page. Scanvify checks exactly what search engines and AI crawlers receive from your site and tells you how to fix it.

How is Scanvify different from free SEO audit tools?

Free SEO tools check one page for one thing and report in jargon. Scanvify scans every page across six areas — mobile, speed, SEO, AI-search visibility, accessibility and security — and gives you the exact fix for every issue: a ready-to-paste prompt if your site is AI-built (Lovable, Bolt, Framer and more), plain instructions otherwise.

What is… · updated 2026-08-17

What is llms.txt — and does it actually do anything?

llms.txt is a proposed file, placed at your site's root, that describes in plain markdown what your website is and where its key pages live. The honest position in 2026: no major AI provider reads it in production yet, so treat it as a cheap nice-to-have rather than a way to get found.

Why are we telling you not to bother?

Because we would rather be right than encouraging.

A lot of SEO tools flag a missing llms.txt as an easy win. It is easy, but it is not a win — the adoption simply never arrived. OpenAI, Google, Anthropic, Meta and Mistral do not read the file in production, and the convention has stalled rather than grown.

If you write one expecting to appear in ChatGPT, you will spend an afternoon and get nothing, while the thing that is actually keeping you out of AI answers goes unexamined. That is a worse outcome than never hearing about llms.txt at all.

So should I add one anyway?

Sure, if it takes you ten minutes and you have already dealt with the things that matter. It costs nothing to serve, a few smaller engines do fetch it, and the convention could still be adopted later.

Just put it last on the list, and do not let anyone sell it to you as an AI visibility strategy.

What should I do instead?

In this order, because each one is worth more than the one after it.

Check whether AI crawlers can reach your site at all. Most CDNs block them by default now. This single check outweighs everything else on this page.
Check whether your content exists in the HTML. If your page is assembled by JavaScript, most AI crawlers see an almost empty page even when they are allowed in.
Add structured data so your business details can be extracted accurately.
Write answer-shaped pages — a question as the heading, a short self-contained answer underneath.
Then, if you like, add llms.txt.

Common questions

Does ChatGPT read llms.txt?

Not in production, as of 2026. Neither does Google, Anthropic, Meta or Mistral. What actually governs whether they can read your site is your robots.txt and your CDN's bot rules.

Is llms.txt the same as robots.txt?

No. robots.txt states which crawlers may access which paths and is genuinely respected by the major bots. llms.txt is a proposed content summary intended to help a model understand your site — and it is not yet read.

Will llms.txt ever matter?

Possibly. Conventions do sometimes get adopted years after being proposed. The sensible position is to keep the file if you already have one, spend no real time on it, and revisit if a major provider announces support.
