# Show HN: AIHint — an open standard for signed, verifiable metadata readable by AI on the web

AI, bots, and intelligent agents crawl the web at lightning speed. Yet, they often can’t know if a page is trustworthy, what it exactly contains, or if they have the rights to use it.

AIHint is an open standard allowing website creators to add a signed JSON file that clearly describes the content, provenance, license, and validity of a webpage.

This standard aims to: - Boost AI trust in web sources - Improve transparency for everyone (humans and machines) - Help AI respect copyright and usage policies

Fully open source with full docs: https://standard.aihint.org Official AIHint issuance platform: https://aihint.org GitHub repo: https://github.com/aihint/standard

We’re looking for feedback, testers, and contributors passionate about a more ethical and AI-readable web.

Thanks for trying it out, commenting, and sharing!
