## How AI providers receive page content

When a user clicks an AI provider option, Mintlify sends the current page as a prompt to the provider. The format of the prompt depends on the provider's content reading capabilities:

- **ChatGPT** receives the plain page URL (e.g., `https://docs.example.com/page`). ChatGPT uses web search to read the page content.

Use 'for example' instead of 'e.g.'.
- **Claude, Perplexity, Grok, Google AI Studio, Devin, and Windsurf** receive the [Markdown version](/ai/llmstxt) of the page (e.g., `https://docs.example.com/page.md`). This provides the AI with clean, structured Markdown content optimized for comprehension.
