JSON-LD structure
Place a script element with type application/ld+json in the page head or body. Inside, use @context set to https://schema.org, @type Organization, and an @id such as your homepage URL with #organization. Add the properties above. Other structured data on the site, such as WebSite, Article publisher, or SoftwareApplication provider, can reference the organisation by the same @id rather than repeating it. That keeps every page describing the company identically.
Where to place it
Google recommends placing Organization markup on the homepage or a page about the organisation; it does not need to be on every page. Sites with a shared head template often include it site-wide, which is also acceptable if the values are identical everywhere. On serionflow.com the Organization, WebSite, and SoftwareApplication blocks are defined once in the shared document head, and individual pages reference them by @id.
Why it matters for AI search
Search engines use Organization data to connect your site with your official profiles and to understand basic facts about your company, which feeds knowledge panels. AI systems that rely on search indexes benefit from that clarity indirectly. The schema is most useful when it reinforces facts stated consistently in visible text across your site and profiles; it cannot fix inconsistent descriptions elsewhere.
Common mistakes and validation
Logo URLs that are blocked, redirect, or point to an SVG that cannot be processed. sameAs links to profiles you do not control or that no longer exist. Different names or descriptions on different pages. Several conflicting Organization blocks with the same @id. Validate with the Rich Results Test and the Schema.org validator. Our free schema builder and validator generates Organization JSON-LD from a form and checks existing markup on a live page.

Frequently asked questions
Does AI use schema markup?
+
Search engines use structured data, and many AI answers draw on search indexes. There is little public evidence that language models read JSON-LD directly when writing answers, so treat schema as supporting clear visible content.
How do I check if my website has schema markup?
+
Run the page through Google's Rich Results Test or the Schema.org validator, or view the page source and search for application/ld+json.
