For: SEO researchers and operators of small websites
Worth noticing: The llms.txt study separates platform defaults from other files: excluding defaults, the new-site rate falls to 5.6%.

Field notes

The homepage presents five numbered studies spanning search visibility, AI answers, platform defaults, and Reddit moderation. Its summaries give concrete samples and windows—for example, the Reddit report follows 10,757 comments across 3,015 subreddits from 16 July to 16 September 2026. Strandline says each report includes its method and downloadable data, and identifies the published data as CC BY 4.0.
