Findings

✕Errors 3
✕ errorai-crawler/meta-robots-blockingAI Crawler Access
No noindex/nosnippet directives blocking AI use

Page is marked noindex — AI engines will not index or cite it

noindex/none removes the page from search indexes, and answer engines that rely on those indexes will never cite it.

FixRemove the noindex/none directive from the meta tag or X-Robots-Tag header.

<meta name="robots">: noindex,nofollow
✕ errortechnical/http-errorTechnical Foundation
HTTP status healthy

Page returned HTTP 403

Crawlers receive the error response, not your content.

FixReturn a 200 with real content; fix the underlying 4xx/5xx or the rules that trigger it.

https://www.perplexity.ai/ → HTTP 403
✕ errortechnical/client-renderedTechnical Foundation
Content in the initial HTML

Page appears client-rendered — AI crawlers see an empty shell

Only ~0 words of visible text in the initial HTML — likely rendered client-side.

FixUse server-side rendering, static generation or prerendering so the real content is in the first HTML response.

0 words of visible text
⚠Warnings 5
⚠ warningllms-txt/missingllms.txt
llms.txt present

No llms.txt found

GET https://www.perplexity.ai/llms.txt returned HTTP 403.

FixCreate /llms.txt at the site root: an H1 title, a short blockquote summary, and ## sections linking to your key content.

https://www.perplexity.ai/llms.txt → HTTP 403
⚠ warningschema/no-jsonldStructured Data
JSON-LD structured data present

No JSON-LD structured data on the page

AI engines use schema.org markup to identify entities, dates, authors and page types. Without it they fall back to unreliable inference.

FixAdd JSON-LD blocks describing the page (Article, Organization, BreadcrumbList, FAQPage as appropriate).

⚠ warningcontent/thin-contentCitability
Substantive visible text

Thin content — only ~0 words of visible text

Pages with very little extractable text give AI engines nothing to quote; they also correlate with client-rendered shells.

FixExpand the page with substantive, answerable content — explanations, specifics, Q&A.

0 words
⚠ warningcontent/no-h1Citability
Single descriptive H1

No <h1> on the page

The H1 anchors how machines understand and index the page topic.

FixAdd one descriptive <h1> that states what the page is about.

⚠ warningcontent/missing-datesCitability
Visible publication/modified date

No machine-readable publication or modified date found

Checked <time datetime>, article:* meta tags and JSON-LD datePublished/dateModified — none present.

FixExpose a date via <time datetime="…">, article:published_time meta or JSON-LD datePublished/dateModified.

ℹHints 10
ℹ hintllms-txt/llms-full-missingllms.txt
llms-full.txt companion file

No llms-full.txt found

GET https://www.perplexity.ai/llms-full.txt returned HTTP 403. The optional full-content companion is absent.

FixConsider publishing /llms-full.txt with your key documentation inlined as markdown.

https://www.perplexity.ai/llms-full.txt → HTTP 403
ℹ hintllms-txt/ai-manifestllms.txt
Emerging AI manifest files (agents.json, ai.txt)

No emerging AI manifest files found

Checked /agents.json, /ai.txt, /.well-known/ai-plugin.json — all absent. These conventions are early and entirely optional.

FixPrioritize /llms.txt; add agents.json or ai.txt only if they fit your AI distribution strategy.

ℹ hintschema/no-organizationStructured Data
Organization schema present

No Organization schema found

Without entity grounding, engines cannot connect this site to a known organization — weaker trust signals for citation.

FixAdd an Organization JSON-LD block (name, url, logo, sameAs links) at least on the homepage.

ℹ hintschema/no-breadcrumbStructured Data
BreadcrumbList schema present

No BreadcrumbList schema found

Breadcrumbs expose site structure to machines; without them a page floats without context.

FixAdd BreadcrumbList JSON-LD matching the visible breadcrumb trail.

ℹ hintcontent/no-question-headingsCitability
Question-shaped headings

No question-shaped headings (h2/h3 ending in "?")

Question headings map directly onto user prompts and make sections self-contained citable answers.

FixRewrite a few section headings as the actual questions your audience asks.

ℹ hintcontent/no-authorCitability
Author attribution

No author attribution found

No meta[name=author], rel=author, JSON-LD author or author/byline markup — the content looks anonymous.

FixAttribute the content: an author byline, meta[name=author] or a Person in JSON-LD author.

ℹ hintcontent/no-data-pointsCitability
Concrete data points

Few concrete data points found (0 numeric stats)

Percentages, growth figures and quantities give AI engines precise, attributable claims to quote.

FixAdd verifiable numbers — percentages, counts, benchmarks — near the claims they support.

ℹ hinttechnical/canonicalTechnical Foundation
Canonical link sanity

No canonical link element

Without a canonical, engines pick one themselves — and may consolidate onto the wrong URL.

FixAdd <link rel="canonical" href="…"> pointing at the preferred URL for this page.

ℹ hinttechnical/meta-descriptionTechnical Foundation
Meta description present

No meta description

A 1–2 sentence description gives answer engines a clean, pre-written summary of the page.

FixWrite a meta[name=description] of ~50–160 characters summarizing the page.

ℹ hinttechnical/redirectTechnical Foundation
No unexpected redirect

The URL redirected to a different final URL

Requested https://perplexity.ai/, ended at https://www.perplexity.ai/.

FixMake sure redirects are intentional, single-hop and point at the canonical destination.

https://perplexity.ai/ → https://www.perplexity.ai/
