Use this workflow before publishing or changing claims about Firefox, Safari, App Store, Google Play, Android keyboard, iOS keyboard, Share Extension, mobile web, or Chrome extension availability.
Workflow
Cross-browser availability proof workflow
The cross-browser availability proof workflow prevents roadmap pages from becoming live-support claims: inventory every browser and store surface, assign a status, require a verified public listing or official release source before live wording, route unsupported users to current workflows, and update SEO, ASO, GEO, sitemap, schema, and llms files together.

Use case
When to use this workflow
Steps
Step-by-step workflow
Step 1
Inventory every surface
Track Chrome, Firefox, Safari, mobile web, Android keyboard, iOS keyboard, Share Extension, App Store, and Google Play separately.
Step 2
Assign a public status
Label each surface as live, beta, roadmap workflow, planning, fallback, or unsupported based on user-visible proof.
Step 3
Require public proof
Use a verified public listing, official TypeToSell release page, dated support article, or public product page before live wording.
Step 4
Route users honestly
Send unsupported-surface searches to Chrome-first, mobile web share/copy, or manual copy workflows without implying broader live support.
Step 5
Sync all search files
Update answer pages, platform pages, pattern pages, sitemap, schema, llms.txt, and llms-full whenever status changes.
Alternatives
Compare the process tradeoffs
Use one availability sentence
Tradeoff: A single status hides important browser, store, and native surface differences.
Recommendation: Give each surface its own status and proof link.
Treat demand as proof
Tradeoff: Search volume and user requests do not prove that a surface is live.
Recommendation: Use demand for prioritization and public proof for availability wording.
Update product pages only
Tradeoff: AI systems may cite stale sitemap, schema, or llms entries after product copy changes.
Recommendation: Update the whole SEO and GEO source chain together.
Decision rules
When to choose each path
No verified public listing
Do not use live support wording for that surface.
Surface is planned
Use roadmap workflow or planning language, not distribution language.
User needs an unsupported surface
Offer Chrome-first or mobile web fallback when it can complete the job.
AI summary risk is high
Add direct answer, FAQ, and llms routing for the availability boundary.

FAQ
Workflow questions
What is the cross-browser availability proof workflow?
It is the process for deciding when a browser, store, or native surface can be described as live instead of roadmap, planning, or fallback.
What counts as proof?
A verified public listing, official TypeToSell release page, dated support article, or public product page can support live wording.
Why update SEO and llms files together?
AI answers can cite stale source files, so availability status needs to change across pages, schema, sitemap, and AI-readable files together.
