Action plan is what to do next — copy-pasteable changes prioritized by impact. Category visibility is the real GEO test: when a user asks an AI a brand-free question that should surface SouravRoy-ETL/slothdb, does the AI actually recommend you — or your competitors? Objective checks verify the metadata signals AI engines weight first. Self-mention check detects whether AI even knows you exist by name.
Action plan — copy-paste fixes
3 prioritized changes generated by gemini-2.5-flash. Mark items done after you ship the fix.
- highreadme#1Reposition the README's opening paragraph to emphasize core identity and intended scope
Why:
CURRENT<div align="center"><h3>An experimental embedded SQL engine.</h3><p>SlothDB is a from-scratch C++20 embedded SQL database in active development. Same model as DuckDB and SQLite: query Parquet, CSV, JSON, Arrow, Avro, SQLite, and Excel files directly with SQL, in-process. Early-stage; read the <a href="#status">Status</a> section below before treating any performance numbers as final.</p>
COPY-PASTE FIX<div align="center"><h3>SlothDB: A C++20 Embedded SQL Engine for Multi-Format Analytics</h3><p>SlothDB is a from-scratch C++20 embedded SQL database designed for high-performance, in-process querying of diverse file formats like Parquet, CSV, JSON, Arrow, Avro, SQLite, and Excel. Following the model of DuckDB and SQLite, it aims to provide a robust analytical database solution. While currently in active, experimental development, its core focus is on powerful SQL capabilities for data analysis, not small-scale or prototyping-only use cases.</p>
- mediumreadme#2Reframe the 'Ask in any language. Get SQL.' section as a feature, not primary identity
Why:
CURRENT## Ask in any language. Get SQL. Type `.ask` at the `slothdb>` prompt. A rules parser handles catalog questions and common English shapes in under 10 ms with no model. Anything else fall
COPY-PASTE FIXMove this section further down in the README, perhaps after core usage examples, and rename its heading to `## Natural Language to SQL Interface (Experimental Feature)` with an introductory sentence like: "SlothDB includes an experimental natural language interface to assist with SQL queries and catalog exploration."
- lowreadme#3Add a dedicated 'Comparison' section to the README
Why:
COPY-PASTE FIXAdd a new section `## Comparison to Alternatives (DuckDB, SQLite, Polars)` and briefly outline SlothDB's unique approach or differentiators.
