Can AI Search Engines See My Site?

Check if your site is accessible to AI crawlers.
AI search engines like ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Gemini rely on crawlers to access your content. If your robots.txt blocks them, or you lack llms.txt, they may not see you. NakedURL gives you a clear answer.

Key Findings

Robots.txt allows AI bots high
llms.txt exists high
Structured data present medium

1. How AI Crawlers Access Your Site

AI crawlers (like GPTBot, ClaudeBot, Google‑Extended) read your robots.txt to see if they’re allowed. They also look for llms.txt to get a summary. If you block them or lack llms.txt, they may ignore your site.

2. How NakedURL Tests AI Visibility

We analyze your robots.txt for AI bot directives. We check if llms.txt exists and is accessible. We also verify if you have structured data (JSON‑LD) that helps AI understand your content.

3. How to Make Sure AI Can See You

Allow all major AI bots in robots.txt. Create llms.txt with a clear summary. Add FAQ schema and other structured data. NakedURL will confirm if you’re visible.

  • Add "User-agent: GPTBot" with "Allow: /"
  • Add "User-agent: ClaudeBot" with "Allow: /"
  • Add "User-agent: Google-Extended" with "Allow: /"
  • Create llms.txt in your root directory

⚠️ The Problem

Many sites block AI crawlers unintentionally
  • Robots.txt disallows AI bots
  • No llms.txt – AI lacks a summary
  • No structured data – AI can't parse content
  • Server issues – AI can't access
