Best for keeping watch on an llms.txt file
LLMs Ledger checks your llms.txt against the proposal, scores it out of 100 with plain fixes, lists it in a public directory and, on paid plans, emails you when the file breaks or changes. The free listing needs a badge on your site and checks only every 3 months, and it doesn't track whether AI assistants mention you. The vendor itself says a listing can't make them read or cite you.
Who LLMs Ledger is for
- Fits if you want to know your llms.txt still works after each site update, from $9 a month
- Works for developers who want a CI build to fail when an llms.txt has errors
Who LLMs Ledger is not for
- Not for you if you want to know whether AI assistants mention or cite you, as it doesn't track that
- Watch out: the free listing needs a badge linking to LLMs Ledger, and it's hidden if the badge is gone for 14 days
- Tight if you stay free, as the file is checked only every 3 months
- Skip it if you look after several sites, since every plan but Agency covers one, and Agency comes in 10-site packs at $79 a month
- Watch out: the vendor says it can't promise a listing makes AI assistants read or cite your site
Why LLMs Ledger gets a 2.8
Five grades, each with its reason. The GPA is their average: an A is 4 points, an F is none.
- AValue for moneyMonthly checks of one site are $9 a month, or $90 a year, under $17.40, which is 60% of where this category's cheaper quarter starts. Nightly checks are $19, and Agency is $79 per 10-site pack.
- CFree plan and trialA free listing for 1 site with a score and fixes, a monthly readiness check and a free validator API. But the file is checked only every 3 months, and you pay with a badge linking to LLMs Ledger.
- CFeaturesA validator, a generator, version history, change emails, a 100-point readiness check and a public listing. It does the llms.txt job fully, but that's a smaller job than this category's, with no tracking of AI answers.
- BEase of useNo rating on record, but you submit a domain and it fetches and scores the file. The free plan does ask you to put a badge on your site.
- BPlatforms and integrationsWeb only, with no desktop or phone app and no named integrations. A free keyless validator API works in scripts and CI, and a keyed API and webhooks cover your own sites.

Keep it
Nothing LLMs Ledger does is plain enough to make in a weekend. The 2 things listed below take a company.
It is one of the better ones too: its GPA of 2.8 is higher than 153 of the 157 other AI search visibility tools we grade. It costs $108 a year.
What you could not
- A crawler that checks every page of a site.
- An API that other software can build on.
What this rests on. LLMs Ledger’s listing: what it does, where it runs, what it plugs into and what it costs. It is a judgement about the kind of software this is. We have not built a replacement for it, and making your own means looking after it too. How we decide, and every tool’s verdict.
What is LLMs Ledger?
LLMs Ledger is a public directory of llms.txt files. Site owners submit a domain, and it fetches the file, scores it against the llms.txt proposal, lists plain-English fixes and publishes a listing page with the score and change history. Paid plans re-check the file monthly or nightly, keep every version and email when it breaks or changes. It also runs a free whole-site AI readiness check.
Worth knowing
- It checks and lists llms.txt files; it does not track whether AI assistants mention or cite a business.
- The free listing depends on a badge on your site and checks the file only every 3 months.
- Every plan except Agency covers one site; Agency is sold in 10-site packs, and over 100 sites means contacting the company.
- The vendor says it cannot promise that a listing makes AI assistants read or cite a site.
