Rivac Labsllms.txt & AI Crawler Access Setup
This is the narrowly scoped, technical companion to the broader AEO Foundations work — pure implementation of the llms.txt standard and the crawler-access rules that determine whether GPTBot, ClaudeBot, PerplexityBot, and other AI crawlers can actually reach and index a site's content at all. This service is for teams that just need the technical setup done correctly and verified — no strategy engagement, no audit, just a clean, working implementation — often because a developer or IT team needs a scoped, well-specified piece of work rather than a consulting relationship. It's for sites that have never explicitly configured AI crawler access and don't know whether they're currently blocking the bots that matter. The output is a verified, working configuration, not a recommendation to go build one.
How We’d Approach This
A clear, staged plan — not a black box
- 1
Check current robots.txt and server logs to see exactly which AI crawlers are being allowed or blocked today, intentionally or not.
- 2
Draft the llms.txt file and updated crawler directives and stage them for one section of the site.
- 3
Verify in server logs that the target AI crawlers are now successfully fetching the staged content before going live site-wide.
- 4
Deploy the finalized configuration site-wide and hand off a short monitoring check your team can run periodically.
What You Get
Deliverables from this engagement
- A published, verified llms.txt file
- Updated, AI-aware robots.txt and crawler-access rules
