Introduction to LLMFY

Learn what LLMFY is, how it works, and why optimizing for AI search engines is crucial for your business.

What is LLMFY?

LLMFY (AI LLM Optimization) is the first SEO platform specifically designed for AI-powered search engines. While traditional SEO focuses on ranking in Google's blue links, LLMFY helps you optimize your content to be cited by AI assistants like ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, and Google's AI Overviews.

Think of it this way: When someone asks ChatGPT "What's the best project management tool for startups?", you want YOUR product to be the one recommended. LLMFY shows you exactly how to make that happen.

Why AI SEO Matters

The way people search is fundamentally changing. Instead of scanning through 10 blue links, users increasingly ask AI assistants direct questions and expect direct answers. This shift has major implications:

40%

of Gen Z prefers AI search over traditional search engines

65%

of AI answers cite only 1-3 sources, making visibility critical

3.2x

higher conversion rate from AI referrals vs. organic search

2026

is the tipping point—AI search is now mainstream

How LLMFY Works

LLMFY analyzes your content through the lens of how AI systems evaluate and select sources. Our platform provides five specialized tools:

🧠

LLMO Analyzer

Evaluates 12+ factors that determine if AI will cite your content, including structure, depth, and citation probability.

E-E-A-T Analyzer

🔗

Semantic Analyzer

📋
