Friends for Humanity

Friends for Humanity is a New York, NY business whose own site puts it this way: "Friends for Humanity is an applied AI research lab studying emotional intelligence in multi-turn AI conversations." As far as answer engines are concerned it may as well not exist yet: 2.7 out of 10.

On its own pages the site does well on a clearly stated business identity. It is passable on some structured data. What holds it back is the technical files AI engines look for, such as llms.txt or an open robots.txt, a heading structure that lays out what it offers, credibility markers like credentials or reviews and sitemaps and entity links AI can follow.

Off the page there is only faint evidence that only a handful of sites link to it and the domain is only lightly established. Beyond that, AI engines do not yet recognise it as a distinct business, there is no press coverage to draw on, nobody is discussing it where AI engines look and it does not come up on Reddit. None of that can be fixed on the page: it has to be earned.

AI crawlers have visited once in our tracking, including ClaudeBot (Anthropic). There is not much on the page to read either, about 17 words. The site links to no social profiles, so there is nothing tying the brand to a wider presence.
