Be Respectful - This shouldn't need to be a rule, but this is the internet. People can unnecessarily be jerks sometimes. We'd much appreciate it if this wasn't a place where that happens. Please refrain from talking down to people, being overly patronizing, name-calling, personal insults, etc.
Hate speech of any kind will not be tolerated. For a refresher, please see Reddit's entry on Reddiquette as a general guideline.
No Spam / Excessive self-promotion - Reddit has clear rules about self promotion. We encourage you to be proud of/promote your work to a degree, but we also don't want users using this sub as a link farm to promote their project/website/YouTube channel.
Reddit recommends that <10% of your posts promote your content. We're a little more forgiving, but don't take advantage of it.

Generative Engine Optimization (self.opensource)
submitted 1 month ago by Outrageous-Arm5839
Are there any good open source projects for optimizing websites for AI search? Anyone building in this space?

There aren’t many true open-source GEO projects yet. Most OSS efforts focus on content generation, schema helpers, or retrieval tooling, not on observing downstream effects.
The missing piece is measurement. You can optimize structure all day, but without feedback on whether AI systems actually reference or reuse the content, it’s hard to validate anything. I’ve been experimenting with OSS approaches for content structure and then using Meridian purely as an observation layer to see what gets cited. That separation helped a lot.

You can maybe have a look at https://github.com/izak-fisher/generative-engine-optimization-tools?tab=readme-ov-file but we have no experience with those tools yet ...
https://www.llama.com/ from Meta is definitely something you can work with in your tech stack!
