What is SpeakableSpecification Schema?
SpeakableSpecification is a Schema.org property that identifies sections of a web page best suited for audio playback and text-to-speech extraction. While originally designed for Google Assistant, it is now widely utilized by RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation) parsers as an explicit signal of passage relevance.
Implementing Speakable Schema for AI SEO
To implement SpeakableSpecification, assign unique HTML `id` attributes to your answer-first paragraphs and reference those CSS selectors inside your Article JSON-LD markup:
"speakable": {
"@type": "SpeakableSpecification",
"cssSelector": [
"#answer",
"#what-is-ai-seo-definition",
"#how-it-works"
]
