Do you need special schema for Google AI features?
Quick answer
Google’s AI optimization guide says there is no special schema required for AI features in Search. Still add accurate JSON-LD where it helps clarity: FAQPage, Product, Organization. Every field must match visible text. Schema does not replace substantive on-page copy.
What is the visible-text rule?
If a certification is not written in HTML shoppers see, do not inject it only in JSON-LD. Align FAQ questions with on-page headings.
How should eco product schema differ?
Use the product schema guide for materials attributes that match the PDP table. Skip aspirational claims.
Why will schema not save a thin page?
Google’s spam policies still apply. Scaled FAQ stubs without proof are risky. Publish first-hand answers instead.
