Joining the LLM Disco Network Fresh

What happens when you submit your site. The verification process, what gets added to the directory, and how AI crawlers find you after that.

Free and Open

The LLM Disco Network is free to join. There's no application process, no approval committee, no fees. If your site meets the minimum requirements (Level 1 conformance), you're in.

Submit your URL. Pass automated verification. Get listed. That's it.

No Lengthy Approval Process

We don't review your marketing strategy or decide if your business is "interesting enough." If your implementation is valid and your content is legitimate, you're listed.

The Submission Process

1. Submit your URL -- Go to llmdisco.com and enter your website URL. You can submit either your main domain or your AI Discovery Page directly.
2. Automated verification -- The system crawls your site looking for the required elements: Schema.org markup, AI Discovery Page at /ai-discovery, proper structured data. This takes seconds.
3. Conformance level determined -- Based on what we find, your site is assigned a conformance level (1, 2, or 3). Higher levels mean more complete implementations.
4. Added to the directory -- Your site appears in the LLM Disco directory with your business name, description, and conformance level.
5. Added to the master sitemap -- Your AI Discovery Page URL is added to llmdisco.com/sitemap.xml -- the master sitemap that AI crawlers use to discover all network members.

The entire process typically takes less than a minute.

What Gets Verified

The automated verification checks for the minimum requirements (Level 1 conformance):

Required for Listing

• AI Discovery Page exists -- we can reach /ai-discovery on your domain
• Valid structured data -- the ADP contains llmld:DiscoveryPage JSON-LD
• Schema.org present -- at least your homepage has Schema.org markup
• Links to network -- your ADP includes links to llmld.org and/or llmdisco.com

For Higher Conformance Levels

• Level 2: llm-index.json, entities.json, knowledge-graph.json
• Level 3: Defined actions in llm-index.json with accessible endpoints

Once verified, your site gets a public listing page at llmdisco.com/sites/yourdomain. The listing includes:

• Your business name and description (pulled from Schema.org)
• Your conformance level
• Link to your AI Discovery Page
• Links to your AI resources (llm-index.json, entities, etc.)

How AI Crawlers Find You

The Master Sitemap

The network maintains a standard XML sitemap at llmdisco.com/sitemap.xml containing every member's AI Discovery Page. AI crawlers can fetch this sitemap and discover all member sites in one request.

Cross-Network Discovery

Every AI Discovery Page in the network links back to llmdisco.com. When an AI crawler lands on any member site, it can follow that link to discover the entire network. Find one, discover all.

Direct Crawling

AI crawlers can also find your site directly through your AI Discovery Page, which is allowed in your robots.txt even when the rest of your main site blocks AI crawlers.
