About TNW | The heart of tech
from our crawl and measurement
"The heart of tech, original reporting on startups, AI, sustainability and the technology shaping Europe." That is how TNW introduces itself. Measured against the twelve signals AI engines rely on, it scores 7.0 out of 10, a strong showing.
The site gets some of it right: it has structured data on the page (CollectionPage, ItemList, WebSite), a readable heading structure. What holds it back is what is absent, including an llms.txt file, a sitemap.
Our monitoring has logged 2 AI crawler visits here: the engines come, the question is what they find.
