6 Layers
GEO Gateway Layers
A complete 6-layer system for AI-to-AI communication
01
Foundation Layer
llms.txt Index
Your AI truth document.
A machine-readable index at your domain root. GPTBot, Googlebot AI, and ClaudeBot read this first to understand your business — before processing any other page.
RFC 9309 · llms.txt v1.2 · JWKS Anchor
02
Intelligence Layer
AI Crawler Detection
Know who is reading you.
Identifies 9 known AI crawlers by user-agent: GPTBot, GoogleBot AI, ClaudeBot, PerplexityBot, Applebot, YouBot, BingBot AI, Cohere AI, and Meta AI. Each gets a tailored response.

03
Communication Layer
/answer Portal
AI reads AI.
An AI-to-AI API endpoint — one of the first in the industry. When an AI engine queries your business, /answer responds with JSON-LD: hours, pricing, services, FAQs, and contacts.
JSON-LD · Schema.org · M2M Protocol
04
Structure Layer
Dynamic Schema.org Injection
Semantic context, automatically.
Generates and injects Schema.org structured data into every page: LocalBusiness, FAQPage, Product, Service, and Review schemas. AI engines get the context they need to represent you accurately.
LocalBusiness · FAQPage · Product · Service · Review
05
Observability Layer
AI Visibility Monitor
See who crawls you.
Tracks when AI crawlers visit your domain and what they index. Lightweight JS beacons fire on crawler visits, feeding data to your dashboard. See which AI engines have crawled your site.
Real-Time Beacons · Dashboard · Crawler Logs
06
Defense Layer
SENTINEL + FraudAI Shield
Predictive protection.
SENTINEL monitors AI citation patterns and predicts visibility gaps before they affect recommendations. FraudAI Shield prevents content injection attacks that could compromise what AI models learn about you.
