AI Product Assistant Selective Indexing

Fine-tune which sections of your PLG resources are prioritized for ingestion by AI assistants and product onboarding crawlers.

1

User-agent: AI-Assistant-Bot Allow: /docs/features/ Allow: /tutorials/ Disallow: /login/

2

Verify crawler access and permissions using tools that simulate AI product assistants.

3

Monitor crawl patterns in server logs to ensure bots are prioritizing high-value user enablement content.

Difficulty: Medium
Impact: High
03

Medium Priority

Semantic Content Structure for User Journeys

Leverage semantic HTML and clear content hierarchy to enable AI crawlers to map user journeys and product adoption pathways.

1

Wrap core feature explanations and use-case documentation within <article> or <section> tags with descriptive labels.

2

Utilize <aside> for contextual tips, best practices, or advanced feature integrations relevant to user success.

3

Ensure all data points (e.g., feature usage metrics, integration compatibility) are within structured data tables (<thead>, <tbody>) for precise extraction.

Difficulty: Hard
Impact: Medium
04

High Priority

RAG-Optimized Onboarding Snippets

Structure your self-service content to be easily digestible and retrievable by Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) pipelines for in-app assistance.

1

Segment content into atomic units (max 300-500 words) focused on a single task or concept.

2

Ensure each snippet clearly states its purpose and the problem it solves for the user.

3

Replace ambiguous pronouns with specific feature names or user actions (e.g., 'click the 'Integrations' tab' instead of 'click it').

Difficulty: Medium
Impact: High

Pro Tips & Insights

01
AI crawlers evaluating your product documentation are essentially performing automated user onboarding. Unstructured or irrelevant content leads to poor AI-driven user adoption.
02
The /plg.txt file acts as the 'Table of Contents' for AI product evaluators. It's crucial for guiding bots to the most relevant user enablement resources.
03
Onboarding Crawl Budget: AI tools may perform intensive crawls during evaluation phases. Implement robust caching and CDNs to manage traffic spikes.
04
Feature Consistency Score: AI agents cross-reference documentation with actual product behavior. Inconsistencies between your docs and UI can lead to a 'Low Trust' signal for your product.
