HOW TO READ THIS REPORT

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 explosion/spacy-layout, 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.

OVERALL DIRECTION

highreadme#1

Reposition README H1 and opening to clarify core function

Why:

CURRENT

# spaCy Layout: Process PDFs, Word documents and more with spaCy

This plugin integrates with Docling to bring structured processing of **PDFs**, **Word documents** and other input formats to your spaCy pipeline. It outputs clean, **structured data** in a text-based format and creates spaCy's familiar `Doc` objects that let you access labelled text spans like sections or headings, and tables with their data converted to a `pandas.DataFrame`.

# spaCy Layout: Extract Structured Data & Layout from PDFs/Docs for NLP & RAG

This spaCy plugin integrates with Docling to **extract structured data and layout information** from **PDFs**, **Word documents**, and other input formats. It transforms these documents into spaCy's familiar `Doc` objects, providing access to labelled text spans like sections or headings, and tables with their data converted to `pandas.DataFrame`.
