Speakable Schema

A schema markup type that explicitly marks content as readable by voice assistants.

All terms
Full definition

Speakable schema (SpeakableSpecification in Schema.org) marks specific parts of a page as appropriate for voice-assistant readback. Voice engines use this to determine what to read aloud when summarizing a page. For contractor sites, marking the direct-answer paragraph and key headings as speakable improves voice-search citation likelihood.

Why it matters

Voice engines tend to prefer pages with explicit Speakable markers when reading answers aloud.

Example

Iron Pine's subindustry pages tag their direct-answer paragraphs with data-speakable so voice engines can read them as the authoritative response.
