What Did the Probe Detect?

The probe identified that notion.so's homepage is accessible to AI crawlers, returning an HTTP 200 status with approximately 2,704 characters of server-rendered text. Notably, there are no disallow entries for major bots like GPTBot and ClaudeBot, indicating open access for AI crawlers.

What Should Business Sites Learn From This?

Business sites can glean valuable insights from notion.so's performance. Ensuring AI crawler reachability and open bot access are critical for maintaining high technical readiness scores. Additionally, while the presence of a llms.txt file is a step in the right direction, its proper formatting and content are crucial.
