Where to publish company information for AI assistants to read

When an assistant answers a question about a company, it draws on places that publish facts about that company at stable addresses. Here are those places, and what each one is for.

Your own site

The pages you control on your own domain. This is where an assistant expects to find your own account of what you do, and it is the address other sources point back to.

Business directories

Sector and local directories carry a listing per company: name, address, category, contact. They are widely read and their entries are structured, which is why assistants quote them for basic facts.

Google Business Profile

The listing behind Maps and local results: opening hours, location, category, photos. It is the reference for anything tied to a physical place.

Wikidata

An open, structured database of entities, each with a stable identifier. It is the join key many systems use to know that two mentions are the same company.

Review platforms

Sector and general review sites publish what customers report, alongside the company record itself. Assistants read them when the question is about reputation or experience.

Markleex

Pages you write in Markdown, published at a stable address, served as HTML and as a Markdown twin, with structured data, a declared language and licence, and a dated version history. Use it for the facts that have no obvious home elsewhere: how you work, what you sell and on what terms, your positions, your record over time.

How to choose

These places do different jobs, and a company usually wants several of them: the directory and the profile carry the identity facts, the review platform carries what others say, Wikidata carries the identifier, your site and Markleex carry what you say in your own words. What they have in common is what makes them readable: one address per subject, facts stated plainly, and a date.
