## What's an Apify Actor?

An Actor is a serverless cloud program that runs on the Apify platform. It has two run modes.
In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours,
and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store.
In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server.

Apify vocabulary and the platform model are defined once, in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md.

## How to integrate an Actor?

If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects.
You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready.

Do not guess an integration path. Every one of them is in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md: the Apify MCP server, Agent Skills with the Apify CLI, the JavaScript and Python clients, the REST API, and the account-free path for an agent with no human to sign in. It also carries the rule on stating cost before the first paid run.

For examples already wired to this Actor's own input schema, see the [API](#api) section below.

Each client library has reference documentation the quickstart does not restate: [JavaScript/TypeScript](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md) (`npm install apify-client`) and [Python](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md) (`pip install apify-client`).

# README

## AI Search (GEO) Audit & llms.txt Generator – ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity

Check if ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, Gemini & Copilot crawlers can access and understand your site. Get a GEO readiness score, robots.txt AI bot report, schema & content checks – and a ready-to-publish llms.txt.

### What does it do?

Find out whether **ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, Gemini, Copilot** and other AI assistants can access, understand and cite your website – the new discipline called **GEO (Generative Engine Optimization)** or AEO. For every site you get a **GEO readiness score (0–100)**, a **robots.txt report for 19 AI crawlers** (GPTBot, OAI-SearchBot, ChatGPT-User, ClaudeBot, Claude-SearchBot, PerplexityBot, Google-Extended, Applebot-Extended, CCBot…), **llms.txt / llms-full.txt detection**, structured data (schema.org) and entity checks, server-rendered content check (most AI crawlers do not run JavaScript), sitemap, meta and Open Graph checks, prioritized fixes – and an automatically **generated llms.txt file** built from your sitemap, ready to upload.

### Why use it?

- SEO & marketing agencies: sell GEO / AI-visibility audits to clients.
- Website owners: make sure you are not accidentally blocking AI search bots (lost traffic) while you can still block training bots.
- Publishers: control the training vs. search split of AI crawlers.
- Developers: create an llms.txt in seconds.

### Quick start

1. Click **Try for free** / **Start**.
2. Paste your list (the example input already works – just press Start).
3. Download results as JSON, CSV, Excel or HTML, or use the API, schedules and integrations (Make, Zapier, n8n, Slack, Google Sheets…).

### Input example

```json
{
  "startUrls": [{ "url": "https://apify.com" }],
  "generateLlmsTxt": true,
  "maxPagesForLlmsTxt": 25
}
```

### Output example

```json
{
  "domain": "example.com",
  "geoScore": 68,
  "grade": "C",
  "aiSearchBotsBlocked": ["PerplexityBot"],
  "aiTrainingBotsBlocked": ["GPTBot", "CCBot"],
  "hasLlmsTxt": false,
  "schemaTypes": ["Organization", "WebSite"],
  "serverRenderedWordCount": 812,
  "issues": [{ "severity": "high", "code": "AI_SEARCH_BOTS_BLOCKED", "fix": "Allow these user agents in robots.txt…" }],
  "generatedLlmsTxtUrl": "https://api.apify.com/v2/key-value-stores/…/records/llms-example.com.txt"
}
```

### Pricing

Pay only for results: **$20.00 per 1,000 websites** (pay-per-event). No subscription. Platform usage is included in the price. You can set a maximum cost per run and the Actor stops before exceeding it.

### FAQ

**What is llms.txt?**

A proposed standard (llmstxt.org): a Markdown file at /llms.txt that gives AI assistants a curated map of your most important pages.

**Does it crawl my whole site?**

No. It reads robots.txt, llms.txt, the homepage and up to N pages from your sitemap (default 25), respecting robots.txt rules.

**Are failed sites charged?**

No. Sites that cannot be reached are listed in FAILED_INPUTS and are free.

### Legal & responsible use

This Actor only accesses publicly available data and official public APIs, respects robots.txt where applicable and paces its requests. You are responsible for using the results in line with applicable laws (e.g. GDPR/CCPA) and the terms of the data sources.

# API

You can run this Actor programmatically using our API. Below are code examples in JavaScript, Python, and CLI, as well as the OpenAPI specification and MCP server setup.

## JavaScript example

```javascript
import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client';

// Initialize the ApifyClient with your Apify API token
// Replace the '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>' with your token
const client = new ApifyClient({
    token: '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>',
});

// Prepare Actor input
const input = {
    "startUrls": [
        {
            "url": "https://apify.com"
        }
    ]
};

// Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
const run = await client.actor("lahcen_ai/ai-search-geo-audit-llms-txt-generator").call(input);

// Fetch and print Actor results from the run's dataset (if any)
console.log('Results from dataset');
console.log(`💾 Check your data here: https://console.apify.com/storage/datasets/${run.defaultDatasetId}`);
const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems();
items.forEach((item) => {
    console.dir(item);
});

## Python example

```python
from apify_client import ApifyClient

# Initialize the ApifyClient with your Apify API token
# Replace '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>' with your token.

# Prepare the Actor input
run_input = { "startUrls": [{ "url": "https://apify.com" }] }

# Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
run = client.actor("lahcen_ai/ai-search-geo-audit-llms-txt-generator").call(run_input=run_input)

# Fetch and print Actor results from the run's dataset (if there are any)

## CLI example

```bash
echo '{
  "startUrls": [
    {
      "url": "https://apify.com"
    }
  ]
}' |
apify call lahcen_ai/ai-search-geo-audit-llms-txt-generator --silent --output-dataset

```

## MCP server setup

```json
{
    "mcpServers": {
        "apify": {
            "type": "http",
            "url": "https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=fetch-actor-details,lahcen_ai/ai-search-geo-audit-llms-txt-generator"
        }
    }
}
```

The hosted server signs you in with OAuth on first connect, so no API token belongs in this config. Clients without OAuth support can send an `Authorization: Bearer <APIFY_API_TOKEN>` header instead, using a token from API & Integrations in Apify Console (https://console.apify.com/settings/integrations).
