Why it matters

Answer engine optimization (AEO) is becoming a real channel, and llms.txt is its robots.txt moment: a low-cost bet on being legible to AI crawlers and agents. Adoption is early but growing — and implementation takes an afternoon.

What to try

Ship a minimal llms.txt listing your key pages with one-line descriptions.
