Structured Knowledge Publishing
Make company information easier for AI to read.
Add sources to the company information you publish, then produce web pages and structured data from the same content. People and AI can read and check the same facts.
FactMind
One source, multiple reading formats
What is knowledge publishing
Give AI sourced information to use when describing your company.
Organize company, product and policy information and publish it with supporting sources. The web page and its machine-readable data describe the same facts.

Why it matters
Information to discover
Publish public pages and paths such as sitemaps so search engines and AI services can find company information.
Meaning to read
State the relationships among company names, products, policies and sources in structured data so AI and search engines have cues to interpret them.
Facts that stay aligned
Carry the same correction into the explanations and data.
The difference sources can make
Adding sources can change how much an answer draws from a page.
GEO compared original content with a version augmented by source citations.
1,000 GEO-bench test queries · top five Google documents · GPT-3.5-turbo · temperature 0.7 · five responses.
The visibility score rose from 19.3 to 24.6, a 5.3-point increase.
Position-Adjusted Word Count — Overall weights cited answer text by length and position. It is not a click rate or citation probability.

FactMind establishes a consistent source of company information.
BLUEURBAN studies how to show the sources of company information and keep pages consistent with structured data. FactMind creates several formats from one approved source and updates them together.
Research behind the technology
Research and application at BLUEURBAN
FactMind: prepare company facts once and publish them in several formats.
FactMind turns company-approved information into HTML, JSON-LD, facts.json and answer pages. It verifies control of the site before publishing and updates the formats and correction records together when information changes.
When company information changes, its published forms should agree.
The company changes its published contact address.
FactMind
- Check the approved source and control of the site.
- Update each format and the correction record from that source.
Publications from one source
- HTML
- A readable contact page
- JSON-LD
- Contact information for the page
- facts.json
- Facts and sources in FactMind’s format
Information AI can read
- Read the explanation on the web page.
- Find the same fact and source in structured data.
- Confirm what to publish and its sources
- Approve the publication scope and record the source and responsible party for each fact. Verifying site control is not the same as judging whether a fact is true.
- Prepare once, publish in several forms
- Create page explanations and data fields from the same information. facts.json is a FactMind format, not a universal AI standard.
- Update all formats when facts change
- Update related outputs together and use sitemaps and IndexNow to communicate page locations and changes.
Frequently asked questions
Q1Will AI necessarily cite a published page?
No. Each AI service decides what it collects and cites. FactMind publishes sourced facts in forms that are easy to read and inspect; it cannot control citation decisions.
Q2Is adding JSON-LD enough?
Visible content and structured data need to agree, and pages need to be discoverable. Sources and updates also matter.
Q3Does approval certify truth?
Approval records publication scope and responsibility. Site control does not certify content accuracy.
