9 issues holding DuckDuckGo back

Content visible without JavaScript
Only 60 words in raw HTML: looks like a client-rendered app. Most AI crawlers do NOT run JavaScript, so they see an empty page.
→ Server-render or pre-render key pages (Next.js/Astro SSG), and explain clearly what you do, who it's for and pricing in plain text.
llms.txt
No /llms.txt: the emerging standard map that tells LLMs and agents what your site is and where the key docs are.
→ Publish the generated llms.txt below at https://yoursite/llms.txt.
JSON-LD structured data
No schema.org JSON-LD found.
→ Add JSON-LD (generated below) so engines know your entity, product and pricing unambiguously.
Machine-usable interface (API / MCP)
No OpenAPI spec, MCP server or API docs discovered. AI agents can read about you but can't act (sign up, query, buy).
→ Expose an MCP server or OpenAPI spec and link it from llms.txt so agents can use your product, not just read about it.
Entity / product schema
No Organization / Product / SoftwareApplication schema.
→ Add Organization + Product/SoftwareApplication schema with name, url, logo, sameAs (socials), offers.
Pricing is machine-readable
No pricing found. Agents comparing tools for users skip products without clear prices.
→ Add a plain-HTML /pricing page and `offers` in your JSON-LD.
One clear H1
No H1 heading.
→ Use exactly one H1 that names the product and its core benefit.
Question & answer content
No FAQ section found.
→ Add an FAQ answering the exact questions buyers ask ChatGPT ("best X for Y", "X vs Y", "how much does X cost").
Linked brand profiles
0 social/profile links. Corroborating profiles help AI trust and identify your brand.
→ Link your X, LinkedIn, GitHub, Product Hunt pages and list them in schema `sameAs`.
