What to put in llms.txt for a SaaS blog

A checklist for an llms.txt file that helps AI crawlers find your product, pricing, comparisons and best articles.

The short version

llms.txt is a plain-text map that helps AI systems and agents find the pages you want them to read first. It does not change your rankings.

Updated June 29, 2026

1

Treat it as a map of your product

A useful llms.txt file names the product, says what category it is in and points to the pages that answer common buyer and crawler questions.

  • Home page and product overview
  • Pricing and plan details
  • Comparison pages and alternatives
  • Your best educational resources
2

Keep the descriptions factual

AI systems need clear summaries. Describe what each page answers in plain words.

  • Write one sentence for each link
  • Skip generic adjectives
  • Update an entry when its page changes
3

Keep the crawl basics in place

llms.txt sits beside your sitemap and robots file. Search engines and answer engines still need crawlable pages with clear metadata.

  • Keep sitemap.xml current
  • Leave public marketing pages open in robots.txt
  • Use canonical URLs and stable slugs

Does llms.txt replace sitemap.xml?

No. Keep both. The sitemap is the standard crawl map, and llms.txt is a plain-text guide that can help AI systems and agents understand which pages matter most.

Should every SaaS blog have llms.txt?

If AI visibility matters to you, add one. The file is short, carries little risk and gives you a clear place to point AI systems at your most useful pages.

Can Ryterr publish pages that appear in llms.txt?

Ryterr publishes blog posts to your own site, and you decide what goes in your llms.txt. Ryterr's own site lists its public product, comparison and blog pages in its llms.txt file.
