# Engineering for search and AI answer engines

We develop the technical layer that lets search engines and AI assistants such as ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini and Claude read and understand a website. This covers structured data, crawler access, machine-readable content, and tools that measure how often AI answers cite your site.

## Deliverables

* Technical audit for search and AI crawlers
* Structured data in production
* Crawler and llms.txt configuration
* Citation monitoring tool

## What we cover

* **Technical audit** for search and AI crawlers: rendering, indexing, access rules.
* **Structured data architecture** (schema.org) and entity consistency across your sites and brands.
* **Machine-readable files:** llms.txt, sitemaps and Markdown versions of each page.
* **Automated FAQ and glossary generation** from your own knowledge base.
* **Monitoring tools** that track how AI answers mention and cite your brand.
* **Endpoints for AI agents** that query your public content directly.

## When it helps

* AI assistants describe your company incorrectly, or cite competitors instead.
* Your site builds its content with JavaScript that crawlers cannot read.
* You run several sites or brands and AI engines confuse them.

## This site as an example

spotiflow.eu applies what we build for clients: every page is plain HTML readable without JavaScript, carries Organization, Service, FAQPage and BreadcrumbList data, exists as Markdown, and is listed in [llms.txt](https://spotiflow.eu/llms.txt).
