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 mlcommons/croissant, 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 sentence to clarify Croissant's unique role
Why:
CURRENTCroissant 🥐 is a high-level format for machine learning datasets that combines metadata, resource file descriptions, data structure, and default ML semantics into a single file; it works with existing datasets to make them easier to find, use, and support with tools.
COPY-PASTE FIXCroissant 🥐 is *the* high-level format for machine learning datasets, providing a unified, machine-readable schema (JSON-LD) to describe their structure, semantics, and provenance, making them discoverable and usable across ML platforms and tools.
- hightopics#2Add more specific topics to improve categorization
Why:
CURRENTdatasets, json-ld, machine-learning, schema-org
COPY-PASTE FIXml-datasets-format, dataset-metadata, ml-interoperability, schema-org, json-ld, machine-learning, datasets
- mediumcomparison#3Add a 'Comparison to other tools' section in the README
Why:
COPY-PASTE FIXAdd a new section to the README, perhaps titled 'Croissant vs. Other Data Tools' or 'Why Croissant?', that clarifies its role as a *metadata format for ML datasets* and distinguishes it from data serialization formats (like Apache Parquet, Avro), data versioning tools (like DVC), or data quality frameworks (like Great Expectations). Emphasize that Croissant *describes* datasets for ML, rather than *stores*, *versions*, or *validates* the data itself.
