1. Missing Machine Signals Detected on datalayer.io

  • `/llms.txt` lacks structured H2 sections or canonical Markdown links required by the llmstxt.org specification
  • Only 1/4 AI discovery endpoints (`/.well-known/ai.txt`, `/ai/summary.json`, `/ai/faq.json`, `/ai/service.json`) are deployed
  • `/robots.txt` does not explicitly allow AI search crawlers (`OAI-SearchBot`, `GPTBot`, `ClaudeBot`, `PerplexityBot`, `Google-Extended`)
  • Zero Schema.org JSON-LD blocks detected on the homepage (`Organization`, `WebSite`, `SoftwareApplication`, and `FAQPage` are all absent)
  • Low quantitative density on homepage (<3 verifiable statistics/benchmarks, reducing LLM citation probability by ~30%)
