# Wix against Squarespace on what an agent reads

In short

Wix auto-generates a default llms.txt that describes the site and documents how AI agents can access live content through the Wix MCP endpoint. Squarespace: On 2026-11-04 www.squarespace.com answered Accept: text/markdown with text/html. Squarespace leads on content in the initial HTML, 2 to 1; Wix sites are server-rendered, with heavy script payloads.

## The sourced difference

Wix documents an auto-generated llms.txt that points agents to its MCP endpoint, plus an API to edit it; native llms.txt on Squarespace 7.1 is reported only by a third party, and squarespace.com serves its own file through a 301 to /assets/llms.txt.

## The rubric side by side

| Key | Wix | Squarespace |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Content in the initial HTML | 1, with setup | 2, on by default |
| Real status codes | 2, on by default | 2, on by default |
| llms.txt generation | 2, on by default | 1, with setup |
| llms.txt linking | 0, not offered | 0, not offered |
| Markdown on request | 0, not offered | 0, not offered |
| JSON-LD output | 1, with setup | 1, with setup |
| OpenAPI exposure | n/a | n/a |
| Fenced, tagged code | n/a | n/a |
| Total | 6 of 12 | 6 of 12 |

The two differ on 2 of the numeric keys: content in the initial HTML, llms.txt generation. Evidence for each score is on the profiles of [Wix](https://agentreadyhtml.com/platforms/wix/) and [Squarespace](https://agentreadyhtml.com/platforms/squarespace/).

## Verdicts by reader

Technical SEO

Wix has a documented llms.txt; Squarespace support is unconfirmed from a primary source.

Docs owner

Wix owners can stop worrying about the file; Squarespace owners should check their settings.

Front-end developer

Neither serves markdown on request on the sites observed.

## What each leaves undone

### Wix

-   Does not serve markdown on request on the sites observed.
-   Does not keep an edited llms.txt in sync with site changes.

### Squarespace

-   Does not serve markdown on request on squarespace.com.
-   Does not publish (as far as found) a help article on llms.txt.

Work left to the developer: Wix, Low for llms.txt; markdown needs an edge product. Squarespace, Medium: confirm the llms.txt setting on your plan, link it yourself, add markdown at the edge.
