## What specific issues affect notion.so's visibility?

The probe identified several areas needing attention. The site’s homepage returns an HTTP 200 status with approximately 2,555 characters of server-rendered text, indicating that retrieval bots can read the content. However, the llms.txt file is present but malformed, lacking proper markdown structure and curated links. Additionally, the homepage lacks a JSON-LD schema, making it difficult for engines to understand the type of entity notion.so represents. Furthermore, while headings are present, the content under them is long-form, lacking concise answer capsules that improve AI readability.
