CiteTrust™ — What's New

Improved llms.txt scoring accuracy — now validates file structure and content, not just presence. Partial or malformed files are flagged separately.

New AI bot meta tag checks — added detection for DeepSeek and Grok crawlers alongside existing ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Perplexity, and Copilot checks.

Pro PDF report redesigned — priority actions are now ranked by citation impact, so you know exactly where to start.

Fix Pack add-on (£49) — available for Pro users. Paste-ready code fixes for every flagged issue — no developer needed.

Fixed false positive on canonical tag detection — trailing-slash URLs are now correctly matched and no longer flagged as missing canonicals.

Improved content readability scoring — aligned with LLM citation preferences, targeting Grade 8–10 reading level for optimal AI extractability.

New citation signals check — measures timestamp presence and source attribution, both strong signals for AI citation probability.
