# TownVue ai.txt: AI access policy
#
# Companion to robots.txt. Where robots.txt grants or denies access by
# user-agent, ai.txt expresses TownVue's intent for AI training, citation,
# and summarization at the content level.
#
# TownVue is a local-business community discovery platform. Owners list
# with us so customers, human or AI-mediated, can find them. Our policy
# reflects that: AI engines are welcome to cite, summarize, and train on
# TownVue content, subject to attribution and a link back when possible.
# We benefit from owners being found, and our owners benefit from their
# listings appearing in AI search results.
#
# Format reference: https://site.spawning.ai/spawning-ai-txt
# This proposal is still emerging; treat the human-readable comments here
# as authoritative if a tool parses these directives differently than we
# intend. Questions or per-listing exceptions: support@townvue.com.
