Read 2026-11-05. Source: https://agentreadyhtml.com/vendors/archbee/ Site: Agent Ready HTML Last reviewed: 2026-11-05 # Archbee: vendor profile In short Archbee turns on llms.txt, llms-full.txt and .md copies by default. Since its Q3 2026 update a public page URL also returns markdown for Accept: text/markdown, and a custom domain lists every public space in one llms.txt. Commercial teams pay from $80 a month after a 14-day trial. ## At a glance **standards.txt** archbee ```text llms-txt = supports markdown-negotiation = supports markdown-twin = supports initial-html = no statement real-404 = no statement vary-accept = no statement ``` 3 supports, 0 partial or announced, 3 no statement. **Archbee** Docs platform Hosted docs and knowledge portal editor with Git sync. Published spaces serve llms.txt, llms-full.txt and .md copies by default, answer Accept: text/markdown on the page URL since the Q3 2026 update, and expose a per-space sitemap.
