When you publish your documentation using Hinto, a special file called llms.txt is automatically created. This file is located in the footer of your live site and is designed to help Large Language Models (LLMs) and other AI systems easily understand your product's features and functionality.
Similar to how a robots.txt file guides search engines, the llms.txt file provides instructions and content specifically for AI models. It compiles all the articles and information from your published knowledge base into a single, clean, plain-text file. This format is optimized for AI crawlers to read and process, ensuring they can accurately learn from your documentation.
By providing a structured and easy-to-parse version of your content, the llms.txt file helps ensure that AI models have the most accurate and up-to-date information about your product. This leads to several advantages:
There are no manual steps required to manage the llms.txt file. Simply keep your documentation content accurate and up-to-date, and use the Publish Changes or Republish button to ensure the file reflects your latest information.
This article explains the llms.txt file, a feature that automatically compiles your published documentation into an AI-friendly format. By enabling search engine indexing, you make your content easily discoverable and understandable by Large Language Models, which helps ensure accurate AI-driven answers about your product. The file is updated automatically with every republication, requiring no manual maintenance.
