How Scoring Works

Your AI Visibility score reflects how many AI Discovery Files your website implements.

The Score

Your AI Visibility score is the number of AI Discovery Files found on your website, out of a possible 10. Each valid file adds 1 point. No weightings, no opaque algorithms, no hidden factors.

Score = Files Found (0–10)

All 10 AI Discovery Files

Every file your website is checked for, what it does, and where to learn more.

Tier Thresholds

Your score determines which tier your listing achieves.

Platinum 10/10

Perfect score. All 10 AI Discovery Files present and valid.

Gold 8–9/10

Excellent. Nearly complete coverage with only minor gaps remaining.

Silver 5–7/10

Good. A solid foundation is in place with room to grow.

Bronze 2–4/10

Getting started. Core files are present but most are still missing.

Where to Start

Implement these files in order for maximum impact.

  1. 1
    llms.txt Required for any listing. This is the starting point for AI Discovery.
  2. 2
    ai.txt Establishes your AI permissions and policies. Tells AI systems what they can and cannot do.
  3. 3
    identity.json Provides structured business identity so AI systems can represent you accurately.
  4. 4
    brand.txt Protects your naming and terminology. Prevents AI misquoting your brand.
  5. 5
    ai.json Machine-parseable version of ai.txt for automated consumption.

The remaining five files — llm.txt, llms.html, faq-ai.txt, developer-ai.txt, and robots-ai.txt — add depth and completeness. Implement all 10 to reach Platinum.
