AI crawler visits: is AI actually reading the site?
Check that AI crawlers really visit the pages — the precondition for any citation.
Allowing AI crawlers in robots.txt doesn’t mean they’ll come. Google Analytics can’t tell you: crawlers don’t run JavaScript. This screen measures it.
Three ways to measure
One line to paste into the head of the client’s site. It only reacts to AI crawlers, with no cookies or personal data.
If the site runs through Cloudflare, connect a read-only token: it’s the most complete source, since it sees requests before they reach the site.
Upload an Apache/Nginx (“combined”) log or a CDN JSON export for a one-off analysis.
What you’ll see
Which crawlers came, how often, to which pages — and above all, the ones that are allowed but never came. The door is open and they don’t come in: without visits, no citation is possible.
