Make Your Store
Readable by AI
Traditional SEO isn't enough anymore. Lumos automatically generates an llms.txt file so ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, and DeepSeek can recommend your products.
Optimizing stores for the next generation of AI search
The Shift to Generative Engine Optimization (GEO)
Search is evolving. Traditional SEO optimizes for Google's ranking algorithm. GEO optimizes for AI assistants that directly answer user questions.
The Old World: SEO
Users browse through pages of results

Frequently Asked Questions
What is an llms.txt file?
Think of it as a robots.txt but for AI. It is a proposed standard file that helps Large Language Models (like ChatGPT and Gemini) understand the structure of your website so they can accurately retrieve information about your products.
What is GEO (Generative Engine Optimization)?
GEO is the next evolution of SEO. While traditional SEO focuses on ranking in Google search results, GEO optimizes your content to be accurately cited and recommended by AI assistants like ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini.
Will this help my Google ranking?
Lumos focuses on Generative Engine Optimization (GEO), which is the future of search. While it primarily targets AI chat search, Google is integrating AI overviews (SGE) rapidly. Having structured data readable by AI is a strong signal for future-proofing your store.
Does it work with any Shopify theme?
Yes! Lumos works on the backend data layer of Shopify. It does not interfere with your visual theme, liquid files, or site speed.
Is my customer data safe?
Absolutely. Lumos never collects customer personal information like names, emails, addresses, or payment data. We only access product catalog information needed to generate the llms.txt file. All data is processed through Shopify's secure OAuth system.
Can I control what information is shared with AI?
Yes! Lumos gives you complete control. You can hide prices, disable categories, block specific URLs or folders, and even restrict specific bots or AI models from accessing your content.
