Can AI assistants read lenta.news?
Measured on 2026-09-19 by asking the site 7 times — once as a browser, once as each of the
6 crawlers that feed ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, Gemini, Meta AI, Apple Intelligence and Doubao — and comparing
what came back. The AI-training opt-out tokens that never crawl are read from robots.txt instead.

What to change, in order
- Publish llms.txt
llms.txt is missing, so an assistant has to discover the site by following links. llms.txt is the emerging convention for telling an assistant which pages actually matter.
- Fix the plain structure: one <h1>, a title, a description, alt text
The structure check scores 35/100. These are the cheapest signals on the page and the first ones an assistant uses to decide what the site is.
- 5 crawlers are named and refused in robots.txt — a deliberate choice
ClaudeBot, GPTBot, OAI-SearchBot, PerplexityBot, Meta-ExternalAgent are blocked by a rule that names them. Nothing to fix here: this page records what is true, not what should be. It is listed so the deliberate part of the block is not confused with the accidental part above.
