Findings with evidence

FixNo llms.txt

/llms.txt returns an HTML page (likely a catch-all), not markdown.

Fix: Create /llms.txt: a # title, a > one-line summary, then ## sections that list key pages as [name](url). Draft one free at checkaiready.com/llms-txt-generator.

ImproveJSON-LD: 1 block, types SoftwareApplication, AggregateRating

SoftwareApplication is missing recommended offers.

Fix: Fix the listed properties, then retest at validator.schema.org.

content="Generate full video projects from a single prompt using Kapwing. Join over 30 million modern creators who trust Kapwing to create, edit, and grow their content on every channel."
