How SigilEdge Works

A transparent optimization layer that sits at the edge, making your content instantly citable by AI, without touching your origin server.

Request Flow

Human Traffic

EDGE


→ Minimal-latency passthrough

→ No modifications

→ Zero impact on UX

AI Bot Traffic

SIGIL


→ Bot detected in real time

→ Content transformed

→ Optimized for citation

Transformation Pipeline

When an AI bot is detected, your content passes through our optimization pipeline using Cloudflare's HTMLRewriter for streaming, edge-native transformations.

Schema Injection

Automatically add Schema.org structured data to every page

<script type="application/ld+json">
{
  "@context": "https://schema.org",
  "@type": "Article",
  "headline": "Your Page Title",
  "author": {...},
  "datePublished": "2025-01-15"
}
</script>

Citation Metadata

Add metadata that helps AI cite your content accurately

<meta name="citation_title" content="...">
<meta name="citation_author" content="...">
<meta name="citation_date" content="...">
<link rel="canonical" href="...">

Noise Reduction

Remove navigation, ads, and clutter for cleaner AI consumption

<!-- Before: 50KB of DOM noise -->
<!-- After: Clean, semantic content -->

<article data-sigiledge="optimized">
  <h1>Your Content</h1>
  <p>Focused, parseable text...</p>
</article>

FAQ Generation

Automatically generate FAQ blocks from your content

<section itemscope itemtype="https://schema.org/FAQPage">
  <div itemprop="mainEntity" itemscope
       itemtype="https://schema.org/Question">
    <h3 itemprop="name">Common question?</h3>
    <div itemprop="acceptedAnswer">...</div>
  </div>
</section>

See the Difference

Here's what an AI bot sees before and after SigilEdge optimization.

Without SigilEdge

<!-- What AI bots see: messy, unstructured HTML -->
<div class="wrapper-outer">
  <nav>...50 links...</nav>
  <div class="sidebar-ad">...</div>
  <div class="content">
    <h1>Your Article Title</h1>
    <p>Your valuable content...</p>
  </div>
  <div class="popup-overlay">...</div>
  <footer>...100 links...</footer>
</div>

<!-- No structured data -->
<!-- No citation metadata -->
<!-- No llms.txt -->

With SigilEdge

<!-- Clean, structured, citable content -->
<script type="application/ld+json">
  {"@type": "Article",
  "headline": "Your Article Title",
  "author": {"name": "..."}}
  
</script>

<meta name="citation_title" content="...">
<meta name="citation_author" content="...">

<article data-sigiledge="optimized">
  <h1>Your Article Title</h1>
  <p>Your valuable content...</p>
</article>
